So, I missed the day of busy work. I missed the annual fireman benefit down on Hope street. I missed my eye doctor’s appointment…well, they canceled on me on that one. What a day to have a cold! So far, I woke up at 8. Back to bed at 10. Up again at 12. And back at again at 2. I’m feeling better, but not tip-top shape. But I’m good enough to get Brandon to his vasectomy appointment and to assist him after that. Yep. This is it, kids....

…seeing your best friend 6-month pregnant, and hanging out with a great group of people for the entire afternoon. J.C. and Erick are near due date, but they flew out to CA for the holiday to be with their friends and family. It was like being at their wedding all over again yesterday with Erick’s family and their friends. Good times! …sleeping for 10 hours straight. …watching X Men: the Last Stand first thing in the morning–well, right after breakfast of Campbell’s Chunky sirloin burger soup– and having theater popcorn for lunch. …laying on the couch for the rest of...

We woke up at 7:58 on our own. Fully rested. A sign of a good morning. And then I checked my morning reading list, and found that Chris Frenchy has posted the story his proposal to his lady love Brandy, completed with video. I’m smiling ear to ear now. Yep. It’s going to be a good day. *UPDATE* Soon after I posted that, I wasn’t having too good of a morning. It’s going better now though…...

I’m here. I’m here. It’s been a busy week. And it’s only going to get busier. But I want to drop by. I will have pictures from Renaissance Pleasure Fair posted soon. My company holds a monthly board meeting for our investors. With our history, something usually goes wrong either during the preparation or before the event at some point. So when nothing went wrong yesterday or this morning during our set up, our team was still visibly tensed. We were ALL waiting for the other shoe to drop. Some shit is going to hit the fan. Some shit is...

1. My review and my raise. I didn’t think I had the gut to chase after a raise originally. And I did. And here we are. 2. My friend Nick (aka Big Nick) graduated from USC School of Architecture on Friday. I still remember the first time he talked to me about going to USC. Of course, I cheered him on. At the end of the month, he’s moving to Aspen, Colorado, to work at a firm he’s worked at over the summer. 3. I reconnect with my former best friend Jen. On Saturday, while waiting for Brandon and his...
