What a week. No sooner did one emergency end than another began. The first three days were spent in a caffeine-fueled daze, desperately trying to save one of our biggest client’s servers and all their data. Then comes Thursday, and our server dies a fiery death, taking all of our company data with it. We were able to restore the vast majority of it from backups, but for a while there, it just seemed that things were one disaster after the other. While my boss frantically tried to resurrect our server, the job of bringing all the clients we’d been ignoring since Monday up to date fell to me. So I got out late yesterday and today as well.
On the plus side, I got paid today, and, after a week like that, I needed to treat myself. So, when it came time to decide what to do about dinner tonight, I announced I would be having sushi. Sure, I can’t afford sushi right now, but fuck it. I deserve some fucking raw fish.
So I had myself a nice sushi feast: 4 pieces of salmon sushi, 4 pieces of smoked salmon sushi, two pieces of shrimp and two pieces of mackerel sushi, and a salmon roll or two. You might have noticed that I rather like salmon sushi. 
It was the first time I’d tried the mackerel, though, and I didn’t care for it too much. It just tasted too, well.. fishy. Everything else was great, though, and I am currently so full of sushi I could burst. Good stuff.
Of course, now I can’t afford to eat anywhere more expensive than KFC till my next paycheck, but it was worth it. Now to enjoy my long, long weekend.
