Snow? SNOW?? It was in the 70's all last week - I was wearing shorts and sandals! It can't be snowing today!! I like cold winters and all, but winter is over ( Read more... )

AAARRRGHHHH ( Read more... )

Hmm, it seems a few things have happened since my last entry. But perhaps I'll skip all that and move straight to more recent events ( Read more... )

Well I came into the office to do a little work, but it seems our IT guy is about to take the server offline for some sort of upgrading, so I don't know how much I'll be able to write at the moment. Guess I'd better get to it ( Read more... )

Well I didn't get Nancy to drink enough last night to cancel this morning's run, but evidently I did get myself to drink enough, since I ended up bailing out. I tried very hard to get Nancy to be the first to suggest re-scheduling, but she was on to me and kept saying very emphatically "I'm going to be there - are you?"

We went to a fancy Italian pizza place on Capitol Hill, so it was a lot less stressful than last time, when we ate at her house and she made me cut food up and ( Read more... )

Fortunately for me, she canceled before I did, so I got to both avoid the agony of exercise and enjoy making her feel so guilty about bailing out on me that ( Read more... )

I had dinner with Jessie tonight. We went to a fancy Italian pizza place on Capitol Hill, so it was a lot less stressful than last time, when we ate at her house and she made me cut food up and mix ingredients and stuff. No movie this time, which was also less stressful, since last time we went to see "Memento" and it made my brain hurt.
