LOOOOONG day. Took a long time to get motivated and moving today. Was awake before dawn, but didn't get to work until 9. I wish I was more of a morning person... mornings are challenging. Then as I was leaving after 6 my boss comes in after the computer's off and needs research on one sponsor's files... some internal numbers... which it turns ( Read more... )

OK, so a while ago I signed for a thing on myspace. Just recently I decided to add Scott and Roland as my friends... (frankly I got on there so I could keep in touch with Roland who's a good egg and I'm happy to hear how well he's doing out there in the mid-west with the love of his life) and I started getting requests from folks I don't know to ( Read more... )

Yep, I did make it to the gym last night. 30+ minutes on upper body weights and 30 minutes on the eliptical. Still wanting to get to the sexy body work out, but need to sit down and plan life out.

I'm back from Annapolis and Ft. Dix. Leaving Dan at Ft. Dix was ... challenging. He's now waiting to find out when the plane will wisk him away to sandbox land. I'm scared for him, of the time to come and needing to channel all this energy into something that will be useful/positive/distract me some. Well, since he now has a 30" waist, I'm ( Read more... )

Good weekend. Friday night I headed to Neca and Sanouke's. I had been debating all week about how to get to Dunstan's elevation, but the working late thing happened again and so I headed straight to N&S's with the E-dog. It was good to have some time to chat with them both and to have a little time with Benefse and Olivier when they finally made ( Read more... )

Wednesday night. It's quiet at my house. If I listen carefully, I can hear the night chirping and singing outside my back door. Emerson is restless, snuffing about how boring humans are and repeatedly flopping down on the hardwood inside my front door. The computer is humming and my allergies are ramping up as the morning's Allegra is wearing ( Read more... )

It finally rained here. Thank goodness. When I got home last night after visiting with folks at Buckston my whole front yard smelled like fresh water and lavendar, like a wonderful warm shower. Very soothing. I didn't get to the gym. I stayed at work and finished out a master agreement I've been trying to resolve since February 2006. Today I ( Read more... )

Sometimes it is just grand to have friends who are thinking about stuff I'm wanting to know more about. Thanks, Jaine, for this article ( Read more... )
