Wish it Were Sunday.. That's My Fun Day...
Nothing like a quiet Sunday. Three of us in the kitchen for three events. My boss Frank drew a function for 40 kiddies and parents. The first cook got a Suite event for 5 people. That left lowly lil' me with Training Table, with Football, Hockey and Women's Basketball (Men's was in Maryland). A cool 120 or so folks, with near zero prep done ( Read more... ) -
A Day of Recovery and Requiem for a Fire.
It's the end of the weekend after a ten day work week. Yesterday was tiring but fun -- sending out Christmas cards before going gaming for the evening. Today was laundry followed by dinner at Ricci. The Holidays are quickly approaching, and I'm already tired of Christmas carols. Top it all off with a cold, dark night. There was only one ( Read more... ) -

Battlefield Promotion
Well, it's been confirmed. The heart and cranky old soul of catering is shipping out to Atlanta for training, and will likely be in the Mid-East by fall. This means I've been picked out to step up and take over some of his work and my boss's as well so he can hit the kitchen. Losing a 70 hour a week employee and knowing he won't be replaced will ( Read more... ) -
Because I am occasionally honorable about these things...
Post and I will:
1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

"New Hampshire is still there"
When life gets weird or I just don't want to deal with it for a bit, there are three solutions that I usually go through...
1) Hit the hiking trails and burn out the body.
2) Hit the malls and burn out the wallet.
3) Hit the roads and burn out the tires.
Usually, I end up doing a combination of all three. It's been a messed up week to say the ( Read more... ) -
Thanksgiving in 48 Hours, Part 2
After a miserable Thanksgiving thanks in large part to a surprising lack of AAA batteries (this has much more to do with music than anything less salubrious or impolite for conversation) and general neglect by the world, I woke up fresh and ready to start the day off -- I figure, how bad can work be? No one's there, and there's plenty to do. ( Read more... ) -
Thanksgiving in 48 Hours, Part I
This has definitely been one of the most up-and-down Thanksgivings I've had in sometime. Last year, I headed 'home' for the holiday, and expereienced the NASCAR finale at Homstead before spending time with the family. This year, things were a bit different. Definitely not for general conusmption, or if you want to feel good about life
I flew to ( Read more... ) -
I love some of the mail I get...
This gem came off of a thread discussing GlamGuns.com. Now, while GG is a parody site, the general responses to this on one particular mailing list were less than satirical. The list is generally composed of people with very specific skill sets -- SWAT, Israeli police, Kiwi Special Forces (apprently New Zealand has a huge SpecOp group, or they're ( Read more... )
