Starbucks

October 7th, 2008 Randy No comments

So my boss has me on a bad routine.  Actually, Sadie and I started it about 3 years ago.  I have a Doppio Expresso (two shots), 1 pump of mocha (chocolate) and then 1″ of milk or cream.  It’s Superyummylicious.  My boss has a craving for Starbucks about twice a day, but we usually go after lunch or when he has craving (like today).  Remember people, expresso has lesss caffeine in it than Starbucks Grande coffee.  I don’t drink coffee at all (no, expresso and coffee aren’t the same), but am really in for one of these.  There is no way to order it off the menu correctly, they ALWAYS looks at you like, WHAT?    Try it!!!

U.A.E

There might be another project in my future.  It’s in Dubai.  My company is growing by leaps and bounds.  It’s a good problem to have in this economy.   It might be fun.  I just hate leaving Sadie and Starr, it puts Sadie out a lot, and Starry gets confused.   Maybe I’ll get to keep my Premier status on United.

Deck is coming along

October 7th, 2008 Randy No comments

So I have put up several more of the main supports.  It’s about 33% there!  Doing 1.5 hrs work of work after work is a bit taxing, and Starry definitely things that it’s lame, but it will be worth it.  I hope that I finish the structure before the snow!!

New servers

October 7th, 2008 Randy No comments

So the #$$ clown that I bought my servers from welched on the deal and sold them on me.  Oops, I have half a mind to rip him through feedback on Ebay, but them he’ll give me negative feedback.  Yuck, I hate that system.  Anyway I found someone who was selling DL380 G3′s for $50!!!  And $55 S&H.  Oh well, I bought three.  If I’m going to move my severs, then I need real ones.  Great deal.

Martini’s fix everything!

October 7th, 2008 Randy No comments

Well almost everything.  They do make doing the business bill go faster.  Sadie is away at a town meeting for work, so Starry and I are left to fend for ourselves.   This usually means bad food, loud music, the computer, and Starry’s bored.   But tonight, it’s Martini’s to the rescue!  With Fuzzy gone, I’m definitely bummed.   Lemon Martini’s are the best!

UPDATE: Fuzzy

October 7th, 2008 Randy No comments

No word on the kitty.  We’ve heard from a couple of neighbors they “saw” him.  Think it’s a red herring.  We REALLY miss him.  We’ve contacted every shelter, hung about 30 signs, and been to every vet.  We hope he’s partying it up, then will show up in 5 days.  It’s bumming us out.  We love Fuzzy and hate to think that anything happened to him.  More if we have it.

Fuzzy is lost!!!

October 4th, 2008 Randy No comments

We lost our kitty!  We think he might have gotten out last night.  We’re so bummed.  We are keeping windows open hoping that Neo will coax him back.  We’ve walked the neighborhood three times.  I hope he’s ok. 

Pumpkins

Starry, Sadie and I went to get pumpkins again this year, they are HUGE.  $5 a piece and we went to a you-pick-em place.

Rock Band 2

October 4th, 2008 Randy No comments

Broke down and bought the drums, a mic, and another guitar.  Sweet.  “bought” a used copy of Rock Band, then downloaded the songs, returned it, then got Rock Band 2.  Had friends over last night, while drinking martinis and rocked out.  Sadie sang!  Fun.
