i've decided that i don't need to wait for my favorite crooner to come and visit where i live. i can go to him. mr. deke dickerson himself was visiting old ironsides in sacramento on saturday night. as always, he did not disappoint. i dragged ms. cinder up with me, put her in a dress, and boy howdy! did we have a great time! i wish that she lived closer. we would do things a lot more often. she is fun to hang with, and she always lets me choose what we do. who could ask for more? … [Read more...]

once again i have made the mistake of asking jt to do something. you know, i'm not even really fond of him. i used to think he was a great guy, but now i know he is not. not at all, and yet, i keep asking him to do things. i've got to stop doing that. maybe it is because i dumped stephen. maybe i'm looking to fill a void. yes, stephen has left a big void. but jt isn't the one to fill it. he really isn't. i don't need another man in my life who wants me to have a crush on him. i've got … [Read more...]

this weekend was all about my dad's puppies. doogie tried to run away when i was purchasing my girlscout cookies. i opened the door, and all the dogs went out to greet the leader and the girlscout. daisy took off to eat cat poop in the bushes, and then doogie took off in the other direction. since daisy knows where she lives, i left to chase after doogie. he was half way to safeway before the girlscout leader caught him. stupid dog. when i got back to the house, daisy was also back from … [Read more...]

working is hard. not that i'm not productive, because i am. i've been working on this report, generated in cold fusion. i've only asked one question of my technical resource, the ultra cool Dan Skaggs, and i've got one more problem left to solve... totals. one would think that i would be happy with my feat... i am actually... look at the code. it is so dynamic. it will interface with a web form... i'm very proud. but the stress level surrounded with "did i get the job" is starting to … [Read more...]

so my boss is reviewing the committees recomendations for who to hire as we speak. my heart is racing, and i feel like i'm going to cry. this is one of the hardest experiences i have ever had. i don't understand why the process works this way, and i don't understand why they just don't tell me if they want me or not. i'm thinking that they don't want me. that they had this awesome candidate that they think would be a much better fit than i could be. it is so scary. i've decided that if i … [Read more...]

so, i went to danville yesterday to pick-up my dad's puppies. they are these 10 pound balls of fluff, who have more energy in their little paws than daisy has in her whole body. they found one of daisy's toys this morning and tore it apart. there is white fluff all over my living room. unfortunately, i can't let them have full run of the house. they are very distructive, and i'm not very good at keeping interesting stuff off the floor. so poor daisy is locked up in the living room with them … [Read more...]
