Goodbye, Anthony

Sadly, after work today was a going-away party for Anthony. He’s worked with Emmis for about 10 years, and is leaving his position as webmaster for both Q101 and The Loop. Sad, sad day. We all met up at a place called Uncle Julio’s, and watched the day turn into night over Coronas and margaritas.

Updates Soon

I know I’m backlogged on images from the past few days. But since Sunday, I’ve been out and about. Went out last night, played poker tonight, and I’ll be out again tomorrow night. When my social schedule picks up (which, apparently is what’s happening now), it gets easier for blog updates to fall into the

Playing Poker

Me, Will and Donna (who I just met tonight) were over at Chris and Leslie’s place this evening, for some pizza and poker. Talk of Star Trek, as well as the difference between anteaters and aardvarks dotted the night’s conversation. It’s been a long while since I’ve won a game of poker, and I’m happy

After Work

Headed to Justin’s place, post-work, to geek out about some code/pages he’s been working on, and to catch a few drinks. Moving to iceland? It’s not like it hasn’t been considered before. Read read read. Howard and Justin, enjoying some fresh tamales with their drinks. Me and Howard, Rainbo club.

Justin’s New Camera

Guess who got a slick Canon Digital Rebel? Sweet! Since I took a photo of his last camera, it only seemed fitting I do so again today.

On the way to work

Not sure what this was about. There’s a “Pest Control” store across the street on North Ave, so maybe a few employees are protesting? Seeing this reminded me of Robin Williams’ joke about taking little kids to Disneyland, and how Mickey Mouse to a five year old is simply a six foot fucking rat.

Back Home, Off to Sleep

Back home now, and pretty exhausted. I may watch a bit of TV, but I doubt I’ll be awake much longer. Which bodes well for tomorrow I guess. I’ve got a little bit of work to get done before the workday starts. That, and I’m also the donut boy tomorrow (if you’re late on Mondays,

Canoe Trip: Fox River

A long while back, I got an invite to go canoing from Gina, a friend of my friend Kim. Today was the big day, and I woke up pretty early to do all my shopping. The night before, I made a big list of stuff to get (sunscreen, water, food, etc). Ran around all morning
