  • Oh, Xanga...I actually had entries written Monday and yesterday. I saved Monday's, but just was never able to get on here (you'll see why). Yesterday I left my flash drive here. And then of course there's today. Here's Monday...

    "Ah, Xanga…didn’t do much of anything yesterday. I did watch some of the Laker game but that was about it for the afternoon. Saw some Scarface last night and…that was pretty much it. Woke up this morning and just got ready to hit the office. Not a lot to do here either, although the boss came with the hyperbole again. It seems to be so important that I do everything. Whatever.

    One thing happened that was kind-of cool. I went to get something out of office services and the two most attractive women in the place both spoke. They’re both nice people, but I can’t recall being in the same room as both of them and both speaking. Small victories...fancy dinner on deck and then Raw with Stone Cold. Workout will be sprinkled in there somewhere.

    Okay, so I might have talked my way into something interesting. I’ll give out info if/as it develops."

    And now yesterday and today with a bit of Monday sprinkled in...I went to this bigwig political dinner Monday (which is why I didn't get Monday's entry in). It was cool eating - I had a bit of everything except the pasta, but mostly had oysters and a bit of sushi - and hanging out with one of my colleagues. Met some of her friends: they're interesting people. Some are on the news, some are doing their own thing lobbying, a couple even play softball. The one sobering thing was seeing someone who I was in the MSW program with working the event. I felt bad because it meant either that's her job now - with a master's - or she has that as a second job, presumably because the primary isn't bringing home enough money. Couldn't bring myself to ask. Normal Monday stuff after I came home.

    Yesterday was an interesting day, as the first day of session normally is. Haridopolos, Cannon, and especially Rick Scott made me sick. My head hurt reading a transcript of Scott's speech. Got to run around the Capitol a little bit...actually, that's pretty much it (most of what I'd written for yesterday had to do with Monday's dinner).

    Today was actually pretty mundane, except for the fact that I came home for lunch and got in a small workout. The baseball game was moved up to noon due to this terrible weather that's here now, so nothing to do in the evening. I may go to sleep really early tonight, especially if there are no Daria episodes...which there likely won't be since there were last night. If these burgers thaw out I might be gone by 9. Really not much else to talk about so I'll leave it here.
