ummm… i have no update. i have nothing new or exciting to say. nothing that’s true, at least. if you want excitement, i’m going to have to lie to you.
that’s a sad state of affairs. here’s hoping for big excitement when i go to new york!!

You have to stop the Q-Tip when there’s resistance.
pru and her adventures with q-tips. i tried, fee, i really tried, but i could not get a shot of her walking around with the q-tip in her mouth. probably because she wasn’t running away from me with it.
here you can see the beginning of the battle. it’s a toss up, at this point, whether pru is going to either a: play with the q-tip, or b: attack the bedding as i try to put clean sheets on the bed.
here is a good close up shot, in which prudence tries to chew the q-tip INTO SUBMISSION!!
the battle royale! it’s a blur of fur and… well, furr.
tune into tomorrow when we find out what happens when…
pru knocks the q-tip off the bed!! [i don’t know what she’s doing in this shot either, exactly.]
That isn’t public opinion — it’s a job of propaganda!
today is going to suck pretty hard, i can tell already. chances of me getting much done? slim. chances of me falling off the chair, sideways, onto the beanbag chair on the floor of my cube? significant. currently, i am killing the last five minutes i have until another meeting. it’s my only other meeting this morning. i started off the day with one at 7:30. there is a good chance i will come down with food poisoning at this next meeting. a 24 hour case of food poisoning. tragic really. it took 72 hours to manifest, but bad potato salad from a forth of july picnic finally caught up with me.
over at the brain, sarah posted a link to micah wright’s remixed war propaganda. it’s a pretty great book. you should check it out. this is my favorite one.
All this fuss over a stupid book? Why don’t you people get your priorities straight? Hel-lo! Cheerleading competition this week!
further exciting news about my trip to new york. exciting for me. and psm louise, it turns out. one of my very most favorite authors, janet evanovich, is going to be there, doing a reading and signing from the new stephanie plum book “to the nines” which comes out on the 15th! she’s not coming anywhere near seattle, so i think it’s a pretty wicked coincidence that she’s going to be in new york city at the same time i am. wheee! that rules. yes i am going. the 2nd shift at the expo ends at 6, and the reading it at 7.
fee says its ok that i am going to a book signing, while in new york. out of all the things to do, i chose to do that. because, she said, that’s the great thing about new york…whatever you are into, it’s going on. and if it’s books for me, than that’s just fine.
it’s very very quiet today, here at work. it’s the day before a holiday weekend. the majority of people took today off. those who did not, are leaving in bits and drabs, earlier than usual. i’m holding out until 4. i’m trying.
that’s all i got. i told you, it’s a good thing i’m going somewhere, so i will have something to write about. i will tell you this, coworker sparkie and i are going to quit our jobs and looking for saddam. i figure i’ve got a better chance of finding him, than winning the lottery.
Is your vagina listed in the New York City guide books?! Because it should be – hottest spot in town! Always open!
bonjour, mes petits amis d’Internet!
i have good news! something that may mean i will actually have something worth writing about. the powers that be, here at work, are sending me to the macworld expo in new york city! i’ve resisted going to any trade shows, always saying that i was holding out for a macworld. but we stopped going to the one in nyc a few years ago. that left SF in january. i went to macworld in SF, but as myself. because i am THAT much of a geek. but i guess we’re back in the NY show! because i’m going!! i’m going to be surrounded by yummy mac goodness!
i’ve never been to new york. ever ever. i’ve never worked a trade show, for that matter. and the powers that be always put you up some place really really nice. i don’t know where i am staying yet, haven’t received any details. i guess this means i’ll get a cool trade show shirt. the last time i saw our booth, a couple years ago, they were wearing all black. but it does change. i’ve seen different types of trade show booth shirts since then.
this all happens in a week and a half. the week of the 14th thru the 18th. psm louise is going with me. i’m glad she is, because she’s fun. you typically work 4 hours a day, and then the rest of the time is yours. for mischeif and mayhem! both!
