The whole office got to go on a relaxing cruise today. We typically have what are called "Stress Buster" meetings on the first of the month, where food is catered in… that sort of thing. Because it’s summer (and because my company rocks), we got to spend this meeting on a boat, touring the lake…
Before lunch, Katie came into the office to invite everyone in Interactive to the Q101 Intern Farewell party. This was an awfully nice thing to do, and all of us thought it would be a blast. The past week, the interns have been visting us a bit more, which is awesome since our office is…
Ben, Justin and I went over to Gino’s for lunch. It took a while (45 minutes for the pizza to cook), but worth the wait. An interesting interior there, as I had never been before. Apparently, they just let the customers loose with pens and what have you, so every inch is covered with graffiti.
Tonight, all the interns at Q101 got together and celebrated their last week working with one another. Interactive got the invite from Katie, and we all basically showed up and boozed it up with everyone else in attendance. I am not terribly sober, but also not terribly drunk. However – details will have to wait….
Found this lovely sticker on the corner of Milwaukee, Damen and North:
After work, Justin and I stopped in a Penny’s for a quick dinner. I tend to get Pad Thai all the time, and had to fight against the urge to fall back into a comfortable pattern. I happened to see Ramen (shitake mushrooms, bean sprouts, chives, served in miso soup) on the menu and, after…
There were plans to go floating again at the tanks, but I was feeling like crap all day. I opted not to go and everyone else, in turn, didn’t end up going. I got some ribbing from Ben and Justin, which I deserved. But all in all, the last thing I wanted to do while…
Yeah. Good night last night there. :)
Alright. I wasn’t able to actually update the blog on time, seeing as how I was super drunk and all. :D It started off with a simple "Hey, let’s get a beer after work" from Ben. He was going to go see a movie, and while I didn’t feel in a movie mode… I offered…
table width=”600″ border=”0″ align=”center”> This poster is on the inside of the "storage room," where a lot of Q101 stuff is stored. It’s right next door to our area, the Interactive office. As I walked by, I saw this poster… …and immediately thought of this song. Thanks a lot, templeton. I go to Riiiiiooooo…de…
Ben used my camera to take some pics of a CD album he designed. He was nice enough to leave them on my camera and I gotta say… the man is good at what he does.
I saw this thread on WH, and just about did a spit take when I read Grumpy’s post. hahahahaha :)
I spent most of my day today cleaning. Bopping around the house, spraying, scrubbing, washing all manner of things. Tonight, I turned down an offer to go out and opted to just stay home. I’ve been wanting that for a while now, and today’s been a fairly productive (albeit reclusive) sort of day. Gonna start…
Played around with Neverwinter today for a bit. Saw a few instances that I thought were rather pretty, so I did some screen caps.
Justin, Kent and I hung out at Kent’s for a good part of the evening. We started in on some Scotch and Irish whiskey, talked a while, and got to see several great pictures from Kent and Christine’s honeymoon. A bit later on, Kent and Justin were playing around on the Mac (looking around at…
