Dedication!

A long but wonderful weekend. Mentioned the Friday night affair, Saturday with my friend Steve was fun, relived old times music shopping. Got a bunch of older stuff that I didn't have copies of, as well as a couple new things from Loreena McKennitt and PiL.

Last night's reunion was amazing! Our class (1982) always seems to have great turnouts, and there were folks at the 30th who I haven't seen since either the 5th, or even since HS. Lots of laughs, lots of hugs, one "I love you" (!), and just a damned good time, despite having to drink Jim Beam.

A little tired today, sent off Steve to his next adventure, and then brought my son up to his overnight camp where he's spend the next 2 weeks.

Time to rest, read, and then BBQ......

Daughter and three grandchildren moved in with us.

Good luck with that, Al. You're kind to help but that is a sacrifice for sure.

Drove home from the in-laws. Both my wife and I are exhausted, but our daughter is running around full of energy. Hopefully, she goes to sleep without much issue.

A warm bath and a prophylactic dose of Benadryl should do the trick.

Running around breathing in all that pollen makes for an allergic evening.

No need for a dose of Benadryl. She went to sleep very nicely. Now here's hoping that I'll actually get a nice night of sleep tonight after not being able to do so for the last three nights for unknown reasons.

Studied for tomorrow's technical phone interview with Google. Decided I wasn't anywhere near ready -- postponed. Grrr...

I went to Lauren's 10th reunion Saturday night. The total turn-out was 13 (9 class members, 4 significant others), out of a class > 140 people. Pretty pathetic considering there were 20 definites and 30 maybes, and about half the class lives within a half hour of their home town. Not that I can say much... I haven't been to any of mine, either. And I burned 25,000 Hilton points for the hotel room. I don't know if I should be mad I used the points for that, or happy it didn't cost me any money!

Went to work in a sunken daze. Felt cold and capable of tears at any second, sypmtoms still active now that I've returned home. Hell in a thousand verses each day taunts, life is meaningless without someone to walk alongside me. But I'm a borderline sociopath, and I can only love she who holds such kindred terrors. Everythigng and everyone else equals nothing.

ALICE: Tell me about it? That makes sense I suppose. Describe your surroundings. You are a borderline sociopath? Does it pay well? . Oh you can, can you? We were talking about Your good looks. But I did not get that.

maybe you should just ask A.L.I.C.E.

Let us know when you pass the Turing Test.

Only Alice (outside of Wonderland) I care for

Which Scientology church do you belong to?

Dude, there are plenty of psychopathic and sociopathic chicks, you just need to look harder.

I used to have a friend who said women fall in 3 groups -- taken, crazy, or far, far away. He married the first one who wasn't. I ran into him recently and told him that. He laughed. "Yeah, I guess I did."

I haven't been to any of mine either, though technically, there hasn't been any to attend. We had ~400 people in my class and I definitely don't remember most of them.

I had a real, live, in-person interview today! It went well, up until the end. Then he seemed to cut it short a little. I hope that's not a bad sign, but he leaves on Wednesday, so I think I should address it in an email, rather than wait for him to get back to me, as by then, the decision will have been made. (And yes, I think I know what the issue was.)

Good luck chawk

Good luck, best wishes

Good luck!

Good luck!

I'm listening to a very cool thunderstorm right now.
