just give me like 5 more minutes...

it's been just about nine months, this developing career of mine in the toy business. since then, today marks the first sunday night i wish the weekend was another day longer. toys kick ass, don't get me wrong. spending all day creating Spongebob, Dora, Blue's Clues, and Hello Kitty toys is definitely one of the top ways to earn a living. but paperwork's a bitch.

it always gets me. these needless, inconsequential, annoying pieces of paper that need to be filled out for "administrative" reasons. in this case, "administrative" means "reasons that are such so that your ass if covered if someone decides to let their infant or animal companion masticate on a Nickelodeon-licensed prepubescent injection-molded plaything."

thursday and friday were spent doing data entry as i update a JD Edwards list of all (read 5000+) toys my company has made since inception in an effort to ensure that the costs we have on record match those that our Hong Kong office has.

as i look at this goddamn huge excel spreadsheet, seeing that the scrollbar is only an inch down the sidebar after two days work, and the fact that i'm on item number 20000 something out of 90000 items, is not the most comforting feeling.

considering everything else, it looks to be a pretty good week.
