I hope all of you spent your one and only leap day for the next four years doing something special. A guy at work and I agreed that Leap Year Day should be a holiday by virtue of it coming around only once in 1461 days. I somehow doubt my employer will recognize that claim, but oh well.
My girlfriend received some very positive acknowledgment in a very practical form today that the hard work she does is greatly appreciated. I told her that it had a lot to do not only with hard work, but her attitude. I have come to realize that the best way to accomplish something is to change your attitude about it. If you decide that a challenge is completely insurmountable and approach it as an overwhelming task, then it will be. But if you look at the challenge and break it down into smaller components, not worrying about the overall picture as much, it will seem much less foreboding. This is particularly true when repairing Electroglas wafer probers...
One more thing. Don't make plans for the leap day of February 29, 2100, because that year won't have a leap day! It turns out that every 400 years, a leap year is skipped, because even the leap year system isn't perfect. We should start a movement right now to slightly speed up the orbit of the planet so that we can reclaim our stolen leap day! Do your part by jumping up and down as much as you can at sunset and kicking the planet up a notch in speed! |
