Where?! Where!?

sigh. I miss living near the ocean....

We had Marine week here recently, and it was cute, but Not The Same as Fleet Week! Ah well.

Meetings I'm invited to keep getting cancelled and/or moved, and I really can't do much until I learn what's going to happen at those meetings! Again I say: ah well.

Our new building is all windows and we're on the top floors with views of the harbor so everyone is at the windows watching carriers come in and airplanes doing fly-overs of the Statue of Liberty. Me? I am ignoring it and plowing through work, but SAILOR WHITES!

Mmmm.

Oh man, I had a dream a couple of weeks ago where a former friend, with whom I've had a sort of complicated falling out in real life (and other people have as well, she's kind of a toxic person), had come back to town and I had to hang out with her with mutual friends who still like her. AND NOW IT'S COMING TRUE! She's trying to come to town for a mutual friend's wedding in July. It's so stupid, I can totally rally enough to be around her even though it will be awkward, but it's stressing me out.

lisa, you don't need the stress. nicely back away.

so much DRAMA at my work. This happens way too much.

The Top Five Awful Tauntaun Costumes [Cosplay]

I have fond memories of Fleet Week during college. Milwaukee wasn't a port of harbor, but it was close enough to Great Lakes Naval Station that we'd get the sailors in their dress whites coming up to party at The Safe House and other touristy drinking establishments. They were all so pretty.

I have to say, I have a cousin in the Navy and he's a wonderful guy, but even in his dress whites he's not a stunner. And he's my mental image of "guys in the Navy" so the whole thing is tainted for me.

What should I get for lunch?!
