Great news! I was one of the top 5 off the 220 applicants for that job for the city!! That means I have a job interview tomorrow at 8am!! It's a panel interview so I"m kinda nervous+ I found out it doesn't pay as well as I thought (top pay is 80 cents more than I make now & it's in Kirkland) But the benefits...

496 lb. isn't too bad, my bike weight around 400 wet. It's beautiful and getting nicer, but I have to head out soon to hook up with the fellas, boys night out. But before you get the wrong idea, it's nothing like you see on TV
We go to dinner, then play xbox all night. Oh and sometime during the nigh, we bake cookies, seriously.
I don't care what you ride, only that you ride. There is a member here that rides a scooter, and we've been trying to hook up since last week for a ride. Does you gf ever ride with you?
I live up by northgate, by oak tree. I used to live on the hill a few years ago, I loved living up there. I'm just not able to afford it at the moment, maybe some day.
elenchos is the guy with the scooter, I asked if he wanted to meet up at Bauhaus sometime on Sunday, so you're invited too.
Screw the housework, get yourself outside, enjoy while you can.

Sounds like a cool lesbian weekend to me.

I love bumper stickers!
I took ruby for a ride today & realized right as I was driving past the police precinct on 15th that in my lust for a ride in the rare-seattle sunshine, I forgot to put my new tabs on & was rollin with expired ones...OOPS. So when I parked I pulled...

Welcome to the SGMC from another Seattlite! Do you have a regular group you ride with? I'm giving you an open invite to join me and my friends on any of our rides. I seem to put more miles on the bike then they do, so you're also welcome to join me on my solitary trips.
Don't let the rain get you down, summer will come and go before you know it.

Check out what I did last night.
I called out sick today cause I have testing for this other job in Kirkland today from 1-5pm. The job pays more but is like 11 miles from my house vs. the 1 mile my current job is. Working for "the phone company" I get 50% off of my phone bill too, but I hate my job. It's not so much the job, but the...

I saw your post on SGMC-Wyatt.
How do I insert my name again??
I'm applying for the "Hot Girl" position you listed in your profile.
Well, one day I'll figure out how to put up some pix of me...

Got your app to SG Motorcycles. Please post in MY journal a little bit about what you ride, where, how long you've been riding, etc. If you don't currently ride, say something about why you should be a member of SGMC anyway. Anything to let me know you're for real will do. If you know a current SGMC member, have him/her leave me a note in my journal.
Thanks.
Thanks.
IRELAND here I come!! I did it! I bought tixs for my trip with my gf to Ireland this summer. The airfare cost 1025 but for the most part-that will be the biggest expense. I also booked us this tour group for a 6 day all-ireland tour. The company caters to the younger crowd-which is why we chose it. You basically travel all over ireland...

In a not-so-perfect world unlike the kind you see in those fucking Walgreens commercials people DO stiff their waitresses. We have to watch out for large drunk parties because they often forget in their non-sober state of mind, to leave some gratuity. Also, when you work in the service industry there are a number of stereotypes you recognize, like who you're probably going to get screwed by. Sad, but very true.

sheeple and stupid comments...
given the current political scenario and living in kitsap co. ( read: navy town) i deal with entirely too much of both.
i found a tshirt out here at st vinnies. it's red and says " sheep! " it's awesome...a little small, but for 95 cents, impossible to pass up.
create and star in a tv show?!
there isn't enough room in this little box for that.
i have a great idea, but i can't tell you about it here.
( this is a shifty face emoticon )
it would have to be on HBO 'cause they could'nt show it on tv.

CONFESSIONS OF A MIND AT 4AM:
Insomnia again. For some reason it's 4 am & I'm WIDE awake. I feel like I'm on the verge of a life changing epifony but for some reason-I'm having a hard time transitioning....In laymens terms-I'm trying to teach myself to turn the other cheek. I don't always have to be the winner & say the last & best word...sometimes-even...

hey there! i've been moving and offline for a few. how is it all?
i don't like to thing in terms of "turning the other cheek". it's a little too judeo christian for my taste and reeks of submissive subserviance.
there is something in learning to walk away though. i had to learn to let things go, and it was basically that i am striving to have a life as free from stress as possible. it seems more often than not, the "antagonistic half" of the problem doesn't dwell on it as much as i would, and i'd be all stress, and in that sense i was always losing.
there is a difference between "walking" and " being walked on".
...speaking in an obtuse, generalized kinda way...

Saturday & I don't have to work!! Could it get any better than this?? Well here's my current dilemma. Should I buy my tix for Ireland now or should I wait to see if I get any interest in my resumes I sent out this week...hum I normally would just wait but already we've (my gf & I) waited too long due to my gf's...

"cute, single and got it together"? that's a pretty tall order... you know i live in bremerton right?
i have a couple single friends that ride triumphs. i don't know if 'cute' is the word for them, though.
got it together...?
if you mean "not psycho" , no problem there.
speaking of psychos...my girl and i had been seeing each other a year ago and started seeing some guy in the interim. she dumped him 'cause he's a wanker and now we're back at it.
during this time my girl started finding weird stuff around her apt, like someone had been in there. the cat would be in the house when she had put him out, plum pits in the sink, and wet towels on the floor. pretty creepy...taking showers in your house.
anyway, i didn't know who this guy was and one night at the bar he walked up to me and threw a shoulder into me. we had a few words and that was that. once i was told who he was i went and confronted him. not a fight but i let him know how it was going to be, and he needed to fuck off.
he ended up called my girls coworker the next day and started bawling about how i freaked him out and he had to go get medicated, and now he wanted to get married and blah blah. this guy is almost 40. what a loser.
yeah...my friends aren't like that.

I'm leaving here on Sunday to go to Houston for my inprocessing for the job, then probably after a week there, I leave for the middle east and ultimately Iraq. Also to relieve the cramping in your hand, get yourself a hydraulic clutch and put it on your bike. My clutch is so tight that when I am riding slow alot, my hand hurts soooo bad that I feel like crying. There are two kinds. One is a cheapo version and the other is really nice and high tech, but worth the money. I can give you the name of my buddy here that owns a bike shop if you need help looking for one. He would probably help you pick one out and then ship it to you if you want.
I might have a friend check my SG page for me every now and then so I can update, but I don't think I will be able to look on it myself from Iraq. Send me your email addy and when I get an address, I'll send it to you and we'll write.
Yay, someone is gonna write me...
Hey, did I tell you I have green eyes too??
Plus, I think you are super duper sexy. I hate the word "hot" it doesn't do you justice.
You are soooo pretty. I'm in love.

Its a hard decision, but ultimately you gotta look out for no.1, especially when it come to corporate America. It sounds the company is already taking advantage Do you think your company is going to reward you for staying, knowing that you passed up a better job/more money? It may only be $.80 now, but is there a raise after a 90 probationary period? What are you chances for advancement? It sucks that honor and loyalty rarely get you anything in the work place, but thats life.
Thats cool about your GFs team winning against the #1 ranked team. And yes, it was a beautiful weekend. Sunday was amazing. It should be like it again next weekend. I didnt get out too much, had a lot of yard work to catch up on. And my girlfriend wanted to go to a BBQ one of her friends was throwing. All my riding buddies were busy anyway. Going to have to start planning ahead more for our cycle rides.
Good luck with your decision, youll make the right one. Whatever that is, dont second guess and dont look back.
Talk to you later
