Kevin's Watch

I posted it as public but some people keep telling me it's marked private. I am going to work on that tonight.

First "summer" party today. I had a good time with friends, and listening to a so so band. More loud than good. An interesting birthday trip is being planned for the summer for a friend of mine that I may join in on. I've never been to Tahoe.

A new one complete with bee noise.

I'm feeling like I will be single again in a few months... which means I'm feeling elated and depressed all at once. This is an abrupt change for me, since my typical range of feelings tends to go from annoyed to hungry.

Cool bees, Jenn!

Between sitting outside in the "fresh country air" all day yesterday (the folks at the next farm over had been spraying their fields with manure...) and my friends' cigarette smoke, I woke up this morning barely able to breathe. That's the worst allergy attack I've had in a long time. Claritin and 12-hour Sudafed were my friends today.

After I got rolling today, I checked out a couple of furniture stores and solved a problem for my boss. And now the weekend's over.

Well that sucks, the weekend should never be over. I just spent a good solid 40 minutes on the phone with my great friend Damelon and feel fantastic!!!!!!!!!

i am fine posting here.

posting a seperate catch up on my life - likely gen forum by sarge null

Awesome - don't think I could make myself jump off a building - congrats.

The first time can be a bit difficult. A big part of your brain is insisting that going face-first over the edge is a really bad idea.

Pics up in the album.

Uh, yeah. Sliding off the 8-foot-tall platform when I did the zipline was enough to wake up *my* survival instinct...

dw, sorry to hear. We're always here to listen.

Try a 90 foot warehouse. (And that's pretty low, as rap-jumps go. )

That last pic (the one of you walking down the wall) rocks! Love it!!!!


Me. Today. I'm meh.

I had an odd day. Some very amusing moments and some weird moments. I also made Sorus look at the pics of my "Grand Bay-bees" I am so proud of them!

For those of you going through a breakup, and you are the one who called it off for you, here is a song for you. Jill Sobule realized there was no songs for this person, just for the person dumped. So enjoy! I don't have sound on my work computer, so hopefully this works, and is the right song.

Warning that it does contain at least one word that might be considered naughty by some.

Oh..well, it's not that impressive then.


I'm getting a lurgy.

And a fly just committed suicide in my coffee. Highlight of my day so far.

If proper coffee
Would it not restore life to
Suicidal flies?

i did my good deed for the day. I had just left work and was waiting for the cross walk signal on the corner of Geary and Kearney and this guy in a business suit who reeked of out of town business man from a convention on his way to meet clients was very unsuccessfully trying to hail a cab. He was doing the frustrated pacing waving dance that I see quite often. I looked up Market street and saw an available cab about six cars up from the intersection of Kearney and Market so I stepped off the curb and did my infamous ear drum splitting taxi whistle and gestured with my right arm with two short waves. When I stepped back on the curb the guy said to me, "Wow, that was incredibly loud." and I replied, "Yes, but your cab will be here in a moment." He looked at me kinda confused and said, "What?" and I pointed over my left shoulder and said, "Look to the end of the bus stop and he will be making a u-turn in a minute, gold, red and white cab." He looked over my shoulder for a few moments and started to say something but stopped and then looked back at me with an expression of disbelief. His face totally lit up and he broke into a huge grin and said, "Wow, that was just amazing, thank you so much, just amazing." I laughed and said, "Nah, it's nothing. You looked like you could use a little help and I just happen to know and love my city." He started shaking my hand and thanking me again and again and I just smiled, told him he was welcome then turned to the cab driver who just pulled up, smiled, pointed at the guy and gave the cabbie a thumbs up. Then I walked off into the night. I know he got to his meeting, probably drinks and dinner with colleagues or clients and told them something like, "I was having the worst time hailing a cab when this woman came out of no where and with the loudest whistle I've ever heard, managed to hail me a cab from half a block away and on a totally different street from the intersection I was standing on." Thats not the first time I've done that for tourists. It's always amusing to watch their reactions. He was particularly amusing and must have been running very late because he was almost acting like I freed him from his wheelchair with the laying on of hands. It was a nice change of pace from the frustrating day I had at work in which I spent most of my day fixing screw ups and babysitting one particular coworker. I've tried several approaches and I think I am just going to have to be a hard ass since the closing manager I work with most is never going to step up to the plate. Ugh.
