Calling in Sick

I had a very deep sleep last night. Slept early and woke up late - at 8am. I didn't even hear the alarm clock! I was coughing hard this morning... and had a runny nose. To top that, my voice still hasn't returned. As for the slight fever, I felt it yesterday but didn't mind it.

Anyway, the deep sleep and the bad cough tells me my body is rebelling. Decided to call in sick today. Told the guys to use text and not voice call. I don't want to strain my voice.

I could have made progress with data recovery today if I didn't feel so sleepy half the time. Besides, I still have to buy HDDs to transfer most of the files to. My drive D only has 9GB of memory left, and I have to recover around 60GB of data if I have to include Jon's. That means money.

PC inspector's a good program. Not great though. It's a bit unstable - I have to close it via task manager every now and then if the file being recovered is too big.

Turned on the Reuters messaging and Ted was surprised I figured out how to install it at home ... he he he. Had a fun chat with Ted, Rey and Cristy. Separately, ofcourse. Ted managed to convince me to eat lunch with him at Jay-jay's tomorrow. He misses the chicken inasal and the batchoy. He also misses the Creamline ice cream sold near Jay-jay's and said we should go there too. Told him I can't eat the ice cream yet.

The PDS desk had an intersting day today ... had orders to the close position then later orders to re-establish it. That drove Rey a bit crazy for sure. Shayne sat at the desk to help him out. He told me she was confused at times and definitely needed more training. Told him we should ask her to sit at the desk whenever we "move" so she gets used to the pace. With the number of deals Rey had today, I jokingly asked him what the probibility is of one or both brokers sending food tomorrow as a "thank you for the deals" gesture. He told me not to count on it... the brokers haven't been too generous lately. Ha ha ha.
