Somebody owes me

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Angela and I were all set to go to the Crew game tonight. The place where she used to work had some extra tickets, we were going to go hang in the VIP patio and just enjoy the game together. Unfortunately, shortly before we were due to leave, we found out that they wound up being one ticket short on the tickets they had promised to people. Oops. Seeing as how I’d been to a few games, and well, the Crew really have been struggling this year, I figured as the husband of someone who used to work there, I was the least deserving of a ticket compared to people who still worked there and their families, so I volunteered to stay home.

That was all fine until Angela came home and told me that the VIP tickets came complete with free beer, and free fresh-baked cookies. Somebody owes me! 🙂

The drop in traffic on weekends is less in the…

    Looks like the site and all the info for Gnomedex 3 is live. Speakers aren’t listed yet, so I guess we’ll all have to stay tuned for that one. Still no idea whether I’ll be there or not. I’m job searching, I can’t guarantee anything more than a week or two out, really. It sort…

    When I went to the eye doctor on Friday, the fine folks at DOC told me I could use the same frames that I had been using but that because the frames had some small scratches, I’d be better off getting new lenses. No problem, except for the fact that they no longer have an…

    I forgot to mention the other omen that this is going to be a real good week. Later yesterday, after I posted that stuff, I discovered that someone had thrown a rock and broken one of the windows on the second floor of our office building. The window is in an empty office so no…

    Have gotten a few emails and comments about the need to document what I do. Seems like I’m not the only one out there being charged with this particular challenge this year. It’ll be interesting to follow along with others as we all do this, so please, if you have ideas, stories, ongoing projects of…
