The roommate thing is working out quite well so far. As Kate is tremendously laid-back, I'm not surprised but, of course, I am pleased.

Your so nice to me. I know when I am having a bad day you will always be there to cheer me up. I'll make you a list... just for you. wink

Very good! biggrin

Did your employer really charge you $100 for the bus pass? Ack!

Sometimes, I don't know why my luck is good. I'm glad, but I just don't know why. An editorial columnist for the Seattle Times found my bus pass and returned to HR and the security guy who took my new picture for my replacement ID didn't charge me for it. Thus, the expectation of $120 in costs became $0. I can easily deal with that....

wow, what a wonderful twist of fate.
that would never happen to me.
if it where me, some hobo would find it, use it to get on a bus, comandere it, then plow it into another bus full of school children or a retirement home, causing it to burst into a huge fireball, and incinerate everyone in close proximity.
right. pleasant thoughts.
yay summer. but actually, i moved here for the rain.

I misplaced my 12-month bus pass today. I feel pretty stupid about it as it will cost me $100 to replace what I was originally given free by my employer. Why do I do these things?

Yet, whenever I feel down, I like to remember this store from La Paz, Mexico

wow, that sucks.
in w colorado we have gas stations called the kum n' go. pretty funny the first time i saw them. but the best is the 'gay johnsons' gas station. yes, it really does exist and when i get my scanner working on my computer, i'll show it to the world.

holy crap that was a hilarious joke. no. i'm serious -it DID make me laugh.
thank you.
you are the greatest. smile

Going two years between dental visits is a bad idea. Actually, the damage wasn't really done since 2003, but the results aren't good, anyway: three crowns (to replace old fillings/crown) and two new fillings. Thank goodness that I have dental insurance: sometimes, I'm mightily thankful that I chose the practical path of accounting... ARRR!!!

The sun is out today in Seattle. This is good.

A friend...

Heheh.. yeah, everyone on my streets always peers at us. I guess because we are the youngest couple on the street. There would have been some mad peering happening if I had gone with the flow. Good thing I wasn't drinking...

Tomorrow will be the rarest of the rare: a day off from work in which travel is not a factor. Getting a new tire and having my oil changed is pretty pedestrian stuff, but I'm meeting a friend for vegan donuts and coffee. For some reason, a leisurely sugarfest seems all the better when it happens on a weekday.

In three years of attending SIFF...

yep. I've already taken over 300 pics in 2 days. It'll take me a while to figure out all the bells and whistles.

Thanks - it is fun to have a change every now and again! xxx

Wednesday was a day in which much went well for me. Not only have I been granted a free pass to slack off at work for a few days (the sympathy one gets for finishing off a big project is larger than I would have expected), but I was informed of a raise which exceeded inflation. I'm pretty certain that I'm overpaid and exceedingly fortunate,...

i guess since i've run it about 20 minutes faster i was hoping to do so again...without training of course. yeah, i'm happy i ran and i'm not too concerned about the time. next time i'll at least where a watch so i know what my pace is.

boulder probably has one or two more things beyond the CU stadium. we do have those mountain things here too.

Why thank you!! I feel better these days. But then again... that too could be the green stuff.

The heat wave (relative for Seattle) won't last long, but I'm enjoying it while I can. I might well have to live in California/Arizona/Nevada at some point just to see how I respond to intense heat for days and days. I might well end up back in the Northwest, but nothing ventured, nothing gained...

Three more days to go before my biggest annual project at...

yesterday, i don't think it ever cracked 50 degrees. plus it rained all day and was a bit windy too. not fun for running a race. well, not for everyone else, i don't mind the cold. too bad the rain stayed away until my drive home.
the weather out here is so weird...all the time.

I was in a fairly decent mood this afternoon when I went across the street to get a pizza for dinner. As I walked back, a older blue car (I can almost never identify them more than that) stops quickly before its turn, largely because the idiot driver was going way too fast. This jerk starts yelling at me for crossing when I did. He...

Loosing it is a piece of cake... I sub two meals with smooties... love it, love it. I am down more lbs... not sure what my weight is today though. I will have to remember to stop once I get closer to my goal. I would hate to get addicted to it and look like Ashley Olsen.

It's a bit scary as to just how much personal information this site offers:

Thank you! As for that site... BRUTAL!! They even have my husband still listed where we lived for 14 months in Louisiana, I forgot my old phone number until just now. Not cool.

That's a little freaky.

Random thoughts and questions that spring to my mind in place of actual significant events of life to detail:

Is any character on Buffy more annoying and shark-jumping than Dawn? I'm halfway through the next-to-last season and I still like the shows, but she may as well be played by Ted McGinley, patron saint of shows on the decline.

Today, Donald Rumsfeld seemed bothered that...

Thanks. Ummmmmm, i think maybe i lucked out somehow. I do lots of other things like painting (oils and airbrush) i don't really know though.i am self taught and decided to kick ass maybe..... yeah thanks, i guess i was kinda obsessed for several years and slept, dreamt and ate photography

i'm only this active because i'm making up for the last year in chicago when i did nothing. though, i would like to get to bed before 2am (even nights i work i'll stay up that late and usually get out of bed around 730 because the dog wants to play/pee/eat).
and the sgco people are pretty active and all have become friends. so, it's cool. and it's always an incentive to go out when you get to meet and hangout with sg's.
the cheese cake would have been better without the pecans. not a huge fan, otherwise very good.
