Week in Review
As per the last entry, I'm not going to talk about you-don't-know-her on here until further notice, And you shouldn't either. It's no longer a public issue, but a private one. End of story (for now).

Anyway, into the news....

It's been over a week since I last posted, but honestly, nothing major has happened (other than the aforementioned event). I've been working pretty much the whole time. We did go to lunch at the Corner Galley out in Seaford (or thereabouts) on Saturday, though. It was a fun time; so many different opinions about so many different issues (6 adults, plus my sister and me). Their grilled chicken/melted mozzarella sandwich is delicious, by the way.

As for work, Jaime is some character, man, I tell ya.... He won't let me install Mozilla on my computer, but he will Netscape. Aside from the fact that that makes no logical sense, it sure is fun to argue with him about it. On top of that, the guy likes karaoke, which leads to some fun afternoons. Thanks to Ronan Dowling for the karaoke site. It had Jaime singing things like The Police's Roxanne and Jewel's Foolish Games (and he's married with a couple of kids, so ha!). Oh, it was pretty funny. I had my share of tunes, too. And, of course, you can't forget The Beatles. I brought that CD in today (thanks again, Casey), and I was having a grand ol' time. Especially at the end of the day, when we had just finished arguing about Mozilla. I kept singing Hey, Jude in his face. It was pretty funny.

Well, I actually got to do some work this week. People were moving offices, so we had to hook up a bunch of computers, along with some other stuff. And you know those rubber strips that you can run wire through to keep flat and unmoving on the floor? Well, it turns out that it's impossible to talk directly about them without sounding risqué. This is what Jaime said to me while we were feeding wire through the thing:

You push it in here while I spread this.

We both started cracking up laughing. I forget what else he said about it, but it didn't come out any better. And later, I was gonna call it a "strip", and, while not as bad, it really wasn't any better, either....

So, I guess that's about it.... I was gonna take pictures for Chuck Jacobi's site during my lunch break, but the camera's batteries died before I could. I did get a couple of shots of Jaime, though, so I guess I'll put them up as soon as I get more batteries.

One other thing I just remembered: Regis & Kelly are doing their shows (at least partially) from Long Beach all week. I brought my portable TV into work to watch it, since it starts at 9:00 am—the same time I have to be at work—but of course the batteries on that died too. BUT, before they did, I was able to see some of the parts live from Long Beach. And who was there on the beach, talking about good gadgets for the beach? None other than Cat Schwartz, from (G4)TechTV! And, of course, I was stuck in the office, mere blocks from where she was (basically, the amount of blocks between Park Avenue and the beach). Ah well. All of Friday's show is gonna be from the beach (but rumor has it that it's going to be taped on Thursday, possibly due to the bad weather forecast for Friday).

OK, really, I think that's it. See ya 'round the campfire.

Time Now: 10:56 PM
