Work has not been extremely rewarding thus far. One of my superiors called today to say that one of the new employees was a no-show. She wanted me to come into work. But tonight was to be the first time B and I got to see each other for two weeks. I reluctantly agreed to [...]

I told one of my managers last night that I was overwhelmed. She seemed very concerned, so I clarified that I didn’t mean I felt as if I was in over my head. I feel overwhelmed by the ineffectiveness of the tech support staff and its current procedures. When I showed up at 9pm last [...]
I have plenty to say about the new job, but it’ll have to wait. It’s 6:45am, and I just dragged my ass in the door. Hopefully the 20 to 40 minute commute will get less stressful once I have corrected my vehicular dilemma (the Mrs. now needs a pirate’s patch on her left eye, by [...]
There are rumors that Quantum Trek: Shitterprise is going to be cancelled soon. There hasn’t news this exciting in the Trek world for a great many years. I hope, once it’s over, someone very important cans Rick Berman & Brannon Braga, then announces that they are burning all archives of the show and forgetting it ever happened.
However, it still makes me sad that a great many people accept this crappy show while hatingStar Trek: Nemesis, which is one of the coolest damn movies I’ve ever seen.
P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMIAH!
I hydroplaned and rear-ended a lady who no habla ingles. She, paying it forward, hit a lady in a loaner Jetta in front of her. The other two cars are more or less OK. The Mrs. got her mouf busted. Everyone was OK, but I’m left wondering whether I should fix her up or just try to get a “new” ride.
The shock from the impact caused this. Really.
I had mentioned having a little get-together this weekend. Here’s the skinny:
Saturday afternoon, I should have the house ready by 3 or 4. Some people are coming before then, and anyone is welcome to do so. If all goes remotely according to plan, we’ll have tables setup in the garage for mass gaming networked to [...]
I have a job. I start on the 20th.
Practice tonight was awesome.
The twins are coming for lunch and more karaoke conspiracy tomorrow.
Speaking of karaoke, we’re thinking of having a little get-together at the house next weekend. LAN party, Karaoke, and general celebration of my return to the workforce. Who’s in?
How Santa Got His Groove Back (Post-Christmas Post Part II)
January 5th, 2004 in Potpourri. 1 CommentWhere were we? Christmas morning.
Christmas morning was later than ever in 2003. Most of the B-town gang were up at my place until well after 3am playing board games, sipping Crown, and wrapping presents. ‘Twas fun, but I miss being able to wake up at 5 or 6am, all excited about the rest of [...]
