This is my friend, Faith, making the catch that led her team to the championship game at the company’s annual Big Ball tournament.
Commenting on the catch, Faith said, "Craig Degroot slammed one into the outfield, thinking I was a weak spot!!! SOoooo Wrong!!!!"
Faith’s team took second place in the series.
This is interesting. For the first time in a long while, I’m actually bored. Being bored, I started reflecting on the past few days’ events. One cracked me up for a second time.
I emailed my friend Michelle yesterday, and in her reply said she thought about me a split second before she got the email. (Awww…) Anyway, that started a whole conversation about her being a mutant with a worthless superpower… the ability to see a split second into the future… enough time to see what’s coming, but not enough time to react or do anything about it. She called herself "Detecto Woman".
So… if you’re bored, please help me fill up space and post some of your ideas about super heroes with worthless super powers.
In response to the surge in SARS cases around the world, Michael Jackson says, "I told you so."
In case you weren’t aware, a few months ago I got a satellite dish with a receiver that has a built in video recorder, sorta’ like a Tivo but not. It’s more like a VCR, but much easier to operate.
Every Monday, the Sci-Fi channel plays 4 episodes of Stargate SG-1. Every Friday they play 2. I record them all. My plan is to spread them out throughout the week in the event that I can find nothing else on. Today I stopped by the chinese buffet place, got carryout, and proceeded to have my own little Sg-1 marathon.
I need a Stargate. That would be cool.
I returned from St Louis to my current consulting assignment to find that I’d been promoted to the "acting" Manager of Information Technology Infrastructure and Telecommunications. That’s quite an accomplishment for someone who’s not even an employee.
Today I talked to a mortgage lender and found that I can’t get a loan since I don’t have a job. I think that’s irony, or something like it.

I guess I didin’t really need an hour to pack. I got dressed and ventured to the vending machines downstairs for a Coke, then returned and packed. It only took 45 minutes… and I took my time.
Now I’m watching that Susan Sarandon/Sean Penn movie, the title of which escapes me. Sean Penn is about to be sent to the chair. Aside from that I can’t tell you much, as I have been downstairs getting a Coke, packing, and posting this and not paying much attention to the movie.
I miss my TV.
It’s 11:15pm. I’m in a hotel in St Louis. No food. Nothing to drink. It’s a little warm in here.
Tomorrow morning I take the exam. I have to be at the Washington University campus by 8:30am. It will take me about 30 minutes in traffic to drive there. I still haven’t packed my stuff, so I’ll have to give myself an hour or so in the morning to take care of that. Oh, then I’ll have to check out… another 15 minutes.
But tomorrow I get to sleep in my own bed.
A colleague in my disaster recovery/business continuity class sent us a poem she had regarding contingency planning. One line made reference to Hell freezing over, and if Satan had a contingency plan in place. It made me laugh.
You don’t get it, but that’s ok.
So… today…
