Nope, still not Belgium. (But, at least the weather’s nice.)

According to a trusted source, today is apparently National Peanut Butter Cookie Day.
I’m feeling a little remiss as a Rush fan: Clockwork Angels was released today… and I completely forgot about it until I saw something on Facebook.
On the “plus” side of today’s tally sheet:
- The lawn is mowed.
- A couple of trees have been ( Read more... )

Work week: Day 2
Rain clouds have moved out of the valley and the sun is trying to peek through…
I just caught an email that informs me of a training session that I had forgotten about. That’s on top of another meeting, later in the day, which I did know about/remember. Two hours that I kind of need to work on other ( Read more... ) -

Monday - 02 August 2010
Hello, work week… we meet again.
It seems that, for the most part, the network switchover has worked pretty well. There have been some hiccups this morning - that were neither PEBCAK or ID-10-T errors - but those are to be expected. We even uncovered the mystery behind a long-running/long-forgotten problem with one office’s ( Read more... ) -
Another Pleasant Valley Father’s Day…

It’s Father’s Day. With that in mind, I’d like to wish a very Happy Father’s Day to the fathers in my family:

The middle of the month is upon us.
Beware the Ides of June?
Hm. Doesn’t have the same ring as “…of March.”
Oh, well.
Today is also my friend, Frankie’s, birthday:

It’s my 9/80 “on” day.
And I technically1 have The Leash this week.
Today is also National Doughnut Day; I brought in doughnuts for the team - or those of us who are here - today.

An NBN Thursday that starts with… sun?!
I should check to make sure that this isn’t Oz.
Last night, SaraRules and I went out for dinner to Outback Steakhouse. (Mmm. prime rib and cheese fries…) After dinner, we headed downtown to meet up with Josh, Michael and Miranda, who are up from Cedar for an arts conference. We went to ( Read more... ) -

Midweek and all’s (relatively speaking) well.
It’s Comics and Sushi Wednesday.
Today also marks one year since I lost my friend, Jessica, to a battle with pulmonary hypertension.

Movie, sleep deprivation, work, movie…
Friday - 07 May 2010
It’s my “on” Friday… but that’s okay: The team is seeing Iron Man 2 at lunch.
SaraRules and I saw the movie last night… well, “very early this morning.” And it was worth the lack of sleep. It was a well-done bit of entertainment. Mr. Downey looked quite comfortable, once again, as Tony Stark. Don Cheadle turned in a good ( Read more... )
