Texas Holdem
Today, a bunch of us organized a post-work poker game of Texas Holdem. Complete with poker chips, snacks, and a few brews. What a great time – I was laughing the whole evening, and I had a blast just hanging out. This was a big guys-night-out sort of evening, and really just a ton of…
Ugh
Been feeling slow and sluggish all day. Might have something to do with the sauce I kept throwing down last night. I didn’t quite feel human until much, much later in the day.
Chris, Portait of a Red Sox Fan
Chris has worn this shirt every day, since the series. Lo and behold, they’re heading to the big one.
Artful Dodging
Hung out with Liz and Steph and Mandy tonight, at the Artful Dodger. I ended up throwing down a good number of drinks, and we had some great talks. Liz got me really excited by this book that deals a lot with intuition. Some really fascinating theories, and I’m looking forward to finding out more…

Some Kid Made Me All Existential and Shit
This morning, it was cold. And grey. And drizzling rain. Walking down Honore, I came across a child’s sidewalk drawing. I walked by thinking how sad and futile it was, this act of creation that would (in a little bit) get destroyed. With enough rain, it would be wiped from the earth, and no one,…
Cafe Iberico

Game Night

Surprise Bouquet
Ah, how awesome is this? I came into work today, and found this great flower bouquet from Matt and Melissa. They left a great card, thanking everyone for the tour of Q101, and for the Death Cab for Cutie tickets. Our little Interactive area just got a little purdier.
Recap
For anyone who might have missed some of the debates, this is a nice recap. Big thanks to persist for this link.
Matt and Mel
Matt (Tha.Riddla) and Mel stopped by the Q101 office this morning. I found out that Death Cab for Cutie was playing in the studio, and let Matt know. He had expressed interest in them to me before, and I offered to sneak him in for a listen. He and Mel stopped by, and we all…
