Fancy Dinner

Tony is visiting us again, and after work we ended up going back to the Shamrock for some drinks. After that, we headed over to Bob Chin’s for a rather indulgent meal. This is only the second time I’ve ever eaten there… and man, is it good (mmmmmm…. garlic bread).

Momentary Pause

For lunch today, we headed across the river to Chipotle (who, surprisingly, has a great web site). Well, we crossed the river as soon as the bridge came back down. It’s nice to see that other people enjoy watching the bridges go up, and the ships go by. Today, there were tons of people lined…

Home Room

I’ve spent most of the day today at home, in my little office area. I ended up calling in to work and decided to work from home today. Got a good amount of progress down, and didn’t have to worry too much about interruptions. Working from home is a nice pace. More time to concentrate,…

I think I failed to mention that Mike is now working back in our Interactive group. He’s been a part of Q101 for a while prior to the current position, working in Marketing/Promotions. He’s switched gears and is throwing his experience and energies toward the tech side and it rocks having him back with us….

Mike: The Gauntlet Is Thrown

Mike and I have played two games so far, and it looks like chess might make a comeback in our workplace. Mike beat me the first time we played, and today was my chance for redemption! While I won today’s game, Mike got in a great taunt earlier in the day. He walked by my…

For Future Reference

This is a placeholder image, for when Katie and I play chess again. We started a game last week when she stopped by (before Fook’s show). We didn’t get to finish, but here’s where the pieces were (her = red; me = black). It’s my move. I had to reset the board today, so this…

Strange

Late tonight, that foul mood creeped back. Out of nowhere. It feels a bit better now, but an hour ago I was feeling really shitty. Yet again, I’m unsure why. I had a rather good day at work: made some significant progress on a project that I had been struggling with for some time now….

Jam Session

Almost all of us, after work, headed to Matt’s apartment to play around. Bass, guitars, drums. You name it. His place is incredibly cool – and it just screams out music music music. It’s in a somewhat sketchy part of town, but the space alone is worth it. Great, great place. The jam session was……

Super Genius

Guess who had his paycheck in the backpocket of a pair of pants? Guess who did laundry this weekend? Guess who got taunted by his coworkers for not signing up for direct deposit? Guess what those signup papers are for, in the background?
