Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So my super shitty day got turned around by (a) meeting with Tom Scola for drinks, Thai Food and Crazyhead; and (b) a friend offering me a free Sketchfest ticket to a live, staged reading of Kids In the Hall's Brain Candy at the Castro! Randomness!

Oh fun! I love Brain Candy beyond all reason.

My company party is making me weirdly bitter. Do not like. But free wine, so.

Yeah, but your hair looks awesome. You look super pretty minus-t.

Aw, thank you!

Can I get some validation for being irritated that the two people who were "Player of the Month" in February and March also got "Player of the Year " awards while I (Player of the Month January) got shit? I think it's probably totally unreasonable of me, but there it is.

Aurelia, there is, but it seems I have to pay a $25 membership fee for them to answer questions.

That's unfortunate, Juliebird. Maybe not unreasonable? IDK

Work party was actually fine, although the buffet ran out of chicken by the time my table got to serve ourselves and the speeches were too long-winded. On the whole more of a good time than not. I only danced to one song but I think I destroyed my shoes, which is surely a sign of a good party.

I'm essentially squatting at this point, don't think I have a leg to stand on.

Morning Natter

Our wings are not tired.

Hey hippocampus!

I hope all are having a more interesting morning than me. I am cleaning a very old server before tossing it. The whole if the drives are big enough you never ever have to delete anything issue. I really don't want to copy it all over again just like the boxes I move from one storage area to another year after year. So I am looking through files and deleting. Mind numbing.

And it is a beautiful day so I am watching water skiers and jet skiers and people having fun outside my window.

The status is NOT quo.

Morning. I'm having a lazy morning but have to get up shortly for a dental cleaning. Yuck.
