A Keynote Speaker

June 29th, 2005 · No Comments

Ok, so you all know that I think my husband is a pretty cool guy, right? I guess I kinda have to legally and all that jazz. But the word on the street (or rather the Internet) is that he has done some pretty cool things with CFEclipse. In fact, he even spoke at […]

Thinking…

June 27th, 2005 · 2 Comments

…I dropped Simeon off at the airport only 8 hours ago and I am already out of things to do.
…I am very easily entertained by the flight tracking sites awaiting Simeon’s safe arrival in Washington DC, but it may be bordering on obsession, so I need to watch it.
…I will be the first to admit, […]

Help me understand

June 24th, 2005 · 1 Comment

Ok, I need some help understanding something. Panhandlers. Particularly the ones who stand on the freeway on ramps. You know the ones; they wear their dirtiest, most ragged clothes, put on a pathetic face and hold a cardboard sign saying something like, “Injured Vet. Need food, work, or money. God Bless.” or “Everyone needs a […]

Happiness is….

June 23rd, 2005 · 4 Comments

I got some office supplies in the mail today (and you all know how I loves me some office supplies) and one of the things I ordered was a highlighter. Just your basic run-of-the-mill highlighter. Only I wanted a thinner tip, you know, for my precision highlighting needs, so I got a different “model” than […]

A letter

June 22nd, 2005 · 5 Comments

Dear evil bitch at the movies,
Who the hell do you think you are? Are you so far above the rest of us that you think we all need to accommodate your every wish? Yes, I got to the theater 30 minutes before it was suppose to start because I knew, with Grand Opening celebrations and […]

The Beauty of Ballooning

June 20th, 2005 · 5 Comments

Whew. Somehow I managed to survive the last week and tell about it. I have been so busy that I barely have time to do anything, much less blog. My apologies. Last week was the Tigard Festival of Balloons and I managed to drag my butt out of bed each day at 4:15am to work […]

Abandonment

June 10th, 2005 · 2 Comments

One would think that in light of the fact that my boss and my husband recently abandoned me, I would start to get used to it. But no. This time its different. This time its permanent. This time its Erin.
Erin is leaving me. Today is her last day at work. She starts a new job […]

Bragging Rights

June 10th, 2005 · No Comments

I just wanted to share that my husband is one popular guy. While he was in Newton, (Boston, for those of us not familiar with the area) his friend Steven was so excited to see Simeon he whipped out his camera phone and snapped a picture of him. And here is the proof! Ya gotta […]

He is (finally) back

June 9th, 2005 · 3 Comments

Ok, the Denver International Airport can suck it. Oh and while we are at it, so can United Airlines. Simeon didn’t get home until 2:30 THIS MORNING. And that is not the pleasant him-strolling-through-my-front-door-at-10:30pm they promised. Simeon kept calling me yesterday explaining that his flight would be delayed because “all the flight attendants called in […]

Today is the day…

June 8th, 2005 · No Comments

…that Simeon comes back home! Yippeee! And while it was nice to have people pay for him to be flown across the country so he can geek it up, I really prefer him here. With me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know I sound all desperate and pathetic, but this is the reason I married this man. […]
