Looks like I’m not the first person to think that John Edwards looks rather like Jack Tripper.
Hmm. cocktail party tonight. I’m a bit nervous, but I’ll be ok.. just a lot of big gov’t and wealthy types there to see what things are all about.
Newtie liked his presents yesterday.. thanks for all the well-wishes! We didn’t get to condo-shop, though.. the Realtor bailed at the last minute. Maybe Thursday?
Newt is *five* years old today! He’s still a little babyhead to me. Here’s to my favorite red-fuzzed libran quadruped.

Here are some baby pictures… it seems like it was only yesterday.

American Date formatting is a pet peeve of mine… I think that “Month-Day-Year” makes the very least sense possible. I think that “Year-Month-Day” or “Day-Month-Year” is a bit more rational. Ah well… I like the metric system, too.
The Zoomquilt – tend to like zooming out.
I’ve found a nice condo in pompano for a decent price… I’m going to check it out later this afternoon. Wish us luck!
The “Women in Technology meeting” was composed primarily of men. What’s up with that?
3 things meme –
Man Mistakenly Cuts Off Penis, Dog Eats It Continue reading 6918 – Happy b-day, Noot!
Keeping a positive mindset, and hoping for more good news to roll my way. Keeping my spirits high and optimism up. I’ve noticed a drop in my appetite lately… I wonder what’s causing that? Usually, I start to get munchier this time of year.
The Eldar are a real thorn in my side. Gimme Orks any day. I’m up to mission #7, thus far. (Staying true to my 1 mission a day… it’s tempting to blow the whole day playing it.)
I want some fresh sweet corn with my meal tonight… I wonder if it’s in season?
Meeting with the women in technology board this afternoon. I hope it’s quick and painless… this week’s going to be busy… Cocktail Party on Wednesday, Kiwanis presentation Thursday. I’ll be happy when this week is over, and it’s hardly begun.
Hooray for No Hurricane this past weekend!

1 year ago – famous funerals, locusts good to eat – pelicans bad, Tickle me Elmo fur coat, mind flayers
2 years ago – Bad dog dreams, 2250 on vanity search (now about 12,000), shoes
3 years ago – magic toenails, submarines, posting politeness, big brain fixmeup, lovely chat about goetta, eyes
4 years ago – Naughty Newt, Tight funds, DT rumor almost gets started again, Newt’s b-day minus 1.

I was right, took me about three hours, and I got a nice bonus check and an Italian lunch out afterwards.
The gang will be happy with the new machines… flat screens, better boxes, and cordless keyboard/mice for some. HP is really quite good about granted equipment, if you’re willing to dance around the paperwork.
Treadmill for FPS games… about time!
Sam & Max team started a new studio! It may not be dead, after all! Telltale Games
3-d Model of the haunted mansion
Would someone like to buy me a 10 million-dollar zeppelin for Christmas?

1 year ago – Prop2 gets nuked, poop in the pool, decade old posts by Scotto to Usenet, Hala attacked by the carnivator, I find out that I need surgery, chimp & the woman
2 years ago – net’s a little poopy, Finn drama at work (after the letter campaign)
3 years ago – clerisy, broken door, bad day, Ripple,
4 years ago – rainy day, poi dog, I first learn to do online carts, x degrees of sep

Shuffling into work on a Saturday, to set up some computers while there’s minimal foot-traffic. We’re going to to the 3-way shuffle. New box the LD, LD’s box to RR, RR’s box to the scrap heap. Normally, that wouldn’t be so bad, but doing all of the installing and configging will be pesky. I may be helping LD and LH swap desks, and pertinent computers, too. If I multitask, I foresee a 3-4 hour job, if everything runs smoothly.
Big Kahuna may be slipping me a bonus to do so… it’d be nice if that’s the case.
Sketch-a-move. Neat Idea for a toy car… it follows the path you draw on it. nifty concept. one of the more cool things I’ve seen lately.

Hm.. it’s odd, but it seems that the hair on my chest is getting lighter, from a very dark brown to a fairer, more of an orange-y brown. Is my pelt changing with the seasons? I haven’t noticed it before, and I’ve not been in the sun with my shirt off recently. Very strange… no noticble change in texture.
That’s your TMI moment of the morning, dear journal.
Bots are getting sillier.
