And now for the usual weekend report. Jenn and I went to Balls on Friday which was ok. It was so crowded I was sure that this would be the night I would bludgeon someone with a bottle. I am getting better with dealing with crowds but that was just too much. I'd say the most fun part of the evening is always later, once we've gotten back to my ( Read more... )

So I have underpants gnomes at my work place ( Read more... )

Just watched King Arthur. It was...ok at best. However, I firmly believe that Clive Owen is the sexiest man alive. Honestly I wouldn't mind being the round table for most of the knights in that movie...but thats probably much more information than you needed to know ( Read more... )

This last weekend turned out to be be much better than expected. Jenn and I spontaneously decided to drive down to Miami and visit our families. We left late Friday afternoon and didnt get in until 11:30 or so. The next day I went to Vizcaya with my Mom and Dad. We took Old Cutler instead of US1 because its much more scenic and I found myself ( Read more... )

It felt far more like an easy going conversation than like an interview. Mostly because Dr. White seemed a little nervous in his own way. I got the impression that maybe he isn't so ( Read more... )

One of the few work days that are the least bit entertaining are toy arrival days. And today is one of those days. I have spent more time than I would like to admit dicking around with miniature rubik's cubes, wooden peg games and, my favorite, the sticky hand grabbers. I'm sure everyone outside my office is curious why they hear periodic THWACK ( Read more... )

After 4 hours in a car I have arrived...back home. I took Barb to the Orlando airport. Taking someone to the airport is a truly un-gratifying drive. In addition she forgot to give me toll money for the drive back home and I had no cash on me. This meant I had to scramble around my car for spare change. At the third $.75 toll I had to give the ( Read more... )

I just got back from the convenience store down the street from my workplace. I went to get a nice chilly beverage. As I pull out a 20 oz. bottle of dasani water I notice a sign amongst the various water brands. It is yellow and red in an exciting Batman type WHAMMO! shape. It says "LOW CARB!!"

I hang my head, sad to be a part of the human race

I was unpleasantly ill over Christmas and only now really feel better ( Read more... )
