So here I am.  Three weeks from 35.  Smart.  Desirable.  Sexy.

And, somehow, single.

It's a common story, right?  You're fun and successful and you have a great sense of humor.  If not perfectly well adjusted, at least aware of and working on the baggage.  You know, without anyone having to tell you, that you're great in the sack.  And you are ( Read more... )

Jeez... it´s been forever since I wrote in my journal.  Even longer since I did so from a foreign country.  I feel so out of practice!  Where are my words?

I was so worried before I got here that that altitude would give me problems.  At 9,000-ish feet, the altitude is nothing to sneeze at.  Imagine my pleasure at finding that I could not even feel ( Read more... )

I just spent an evening out with my GC and subs, drinking beers, playing pool, and singing karaoke in a small city in NorCal called Eureka.

They said I was hands down the number one gold star winner for karaoke tonight.  (because I'm the client maybe?)

And one of 'em said he was pretty sure I was way overqualified for my job.  This in response to him ( Read more... )

Been itching to use my passport again ( Read more... )

...mild hangover symptoms include leg cramps.  Ouch.

Thank you, oode, for dumping rain on me every year.  Without you, I would have wet pants right now.  Everyone else in the office is soaked from the coat hem down.  I, however, thanks to the plastic pants you made me buy, am dry and comfortable.

I love storms like this, but I don't like sitting in wet jeans. 

I love it.

I want to spend the entire weekend in the glass tower at the de Young to watch the thunderstorms.  Can someone arrange that for me, please?  Clear everyone else out, and get me a key to the place.

Wow.  Apparently I came into Seattle at a bad time.

I'm holed up in the hotel right now, but I have to drive around the area for work tomorrow, and I have a flight in the afternoon.  I had a scary enough flight today, flying into the storm with hundred mph headwinds in a ( Read more... )

My car has an ugly step-sibling.

I don't think I like it.

Oh, and looking at the MINI site reminded be that by buying an 06 instead of an 07 I gave up a 6-speed for a 5-speed.  That totally made my stomach sink.  I love my car.  But the redesign is ( Read more... )

I don't get it.  I don't think of myself as a typical girl.  In so many ways, I'm not, y'know?

No, really!

I like foosball.  Love to drive -- manual transmission, of course.  I like gear and gadgets.  My power drill, and putting together furniture with it, bring me joy.

So why...

Why am I totally in love...

...with Agent Seeley Booth?
