| There's supposedly 74 bands and artists represented in this picture. Shame on you and yo momma if you cheat and google the answers.
I spy: THE ROLLING STONES! 
Here's a link to a bigger picture, (it's cut-off though...) 
Cheers!

| I'm sick. 
Unrelated note: I have an opportunity to request a new client that I estimate would consume approximately 60% - 70% of my annual chargeable hours. This client will provide me with a ton of opportunities to learn a very specific and highly regulated industry, in addition to the regular audit stuff I have yet to learn since I'm still only Staff 2. This job will also require me traveling to parts of the country I have never been to (VA, for example), which translates to free living expenses (yay for per diem). In addition to all that, having a public client looks hecka good on the resume too...
Drawback: I will probably be busy as hell for at least the next 2 years, and will be travelling a lot more than I am now. But most of all, since this client has a November 30 year-end, my holidays are pretty much screwed.
I don't know what to do. Should I just sit on it and wait and see if they schedule me (highly likely, especially since I'm don't have any recurring clients beginning January to mid Feb), or should I be proactive and take charge of my career path?
Man... I hate this... | | |
| Another news of pregnancy!!! Holy crap. I'm hecka excited about this one tho... can't wait to do some major maternity and baby shopping with the mommy! | | |

The accounting firm is piloting a program designed to reduce work hours. It also invented a new position for career employees who are not on a partner track, thereby getting rid of the old "up or out" culture. |
On a personal note, the Sac office was part of the said pilot program which was rolled in 7 offices in the Summer of 2003. | | |
| I just found out my "dinky" little client in Parma, Idaho (yes, I'm in Idaho right now) is actually a subgroup of Bayer. Apparently, this company produces seeds for 80% of the nation's onions and carrots, and chances are,we've all consumed their end product at one point or another. Still dinky? Not so much.
This not-so-dinky company also does their genetic "enhancements" right in their own backyard! Isn't that cool? We didn't go on that tour though, maybe next time.  Anyway, I should probably get back to work if I want to get out of here at a semi-decent hour (11pm if I'm lucky.... ah yes, the life of an auditor. Exciting no?) | | |
