This silence is deafening

I am at work today writing documentation and setting up VMware clients. The office is about half empty and is much quieter than usual. The time between Christmas and New Year's Eve is one of my favorite times of the year with everyone's schedules temporarily cleared and the world in a state somewhere between work day and weekend.

I especially like the morning and evening commute courtesy of OC Transpo. Fewer bodies but more apparent desire to be elsewhere. Buses should have cocktail carts.

I don't like winter this year. Everything I want to do needs to wait until spring. Well, except for skating on the canal at night, but that is a few more weeks away. It's a good time to woodshed some Perl scripting and Rush songs though.
