It's always pretty quiet around here anymore, but it's extra lonely when just one person is away on vaca.  Friday I was missing two of the people I normally can take the 30 second mental break with.  At least we're just down to one out for this week, but rest assured not having someone to take 5 with to grab a drink or to talk though my current work stuff is going to slow me down and drain me a bit.  It probably doesn't help that my connection to the network I need to be on has been down since mid-afternoon on Friday.  Fix assigned as a "low priority" - go figure.  *shakes head*
