Takin' the kid

Today – Follow-up job Interview this afternoon, fingers crossed (Severance package is/was cool, but being unemployed sucks)
Tonight – working side job as a DJ at a local club (Getting paid to drink & socialize with hot chicks)
Tomorrow – Beach, then working side job as a DJ at a local club
Sunday – Watch the Game
Seik1177 - May 15, 2009
Good luck with the interview
and the hot chicks.
WiHaloFan - May 15, 2009
good luck with your interview!
norcaliangelsfan - May 15, 2009
Gracias Guys
Interview went well, now gotta wait till Tuesday….
Seik1177 - May 15, 2009
Meh
Who the hell started this whole co-ed baby shower movement? I will be the latest victim tomorrow. I hope there’s beer. Probably have to DVR the game.
Sunday, I’m gonna watch This Old House and then build a closet.
Higz - May 15, 2009
lol about the baby shower
HALO_86 - May 15, 2009
Co-ed baby showers are bush league and they are becoming the norm.
hauldog - May 15, 2009
Thank God...
… all my friends are self absorbed liberal music/art/politics types. By the time they’re done traveling to Prague and Bangkok, mastering yoga, hosting 2.5 venereal diseases each, and doing their part to change the world from a bar stool and their little baby makin oven clocks start gettin ready to ding at 32 or so maybe the whole coed baby shower trend’ll be dead.
gitchogritchoffmypetis - May 15, 2009
I'm having such a visual of you at a baby shower
ladybug - May 15, 2009

I wrote a couple of weeks ago that I have a construction project for a REAL...
…Mickey Mouse outfit.
Spent about 8 months helping decide what they wanted. Prepared multiple schedules, budgets, etc. Went through the whole “Goldilocks” process (Oooh..how much is that? Too expensive! How much is that? Too cheap! How long will that take to get? Too long. What about this? Ahhhhh…just right!). Finally after 8 months (8 MONTHS!!!!!) we had EVERTHING dialed in, scrubbed, reviewed, and accepted. The architects, engineers, and consultants drew up documents and submitted for approval to the client, got approved, went to the city and got permits.
After all of that, and after starting the project, they decided to re-design vast portions of the project!!! Oh…and they told us we had to hold the same schedule, and hold the same budget!!! Haha!!!
So, my weekend will once again be spent scrambling to update costs and schedules. Fun, fun, FUN!!! (Bastards…)
sothball - May 15, 2009
Not a "magical" weekend for you
stolenbases - May 15, 2009
taking the Mom to Star Trek for a late Mommy Day present
duct taping the children, drinking beer…you know, the usual
ladybug - May 15, 2009
Duct taping the children?
Leprosy’s a bitch…the beer should help ease their pain though…
sothball - May 15, 2009
Hey, if you've got the duct tape already
all you need to add is a pogo stick and a rabid badger, and you’ve got a whole weekend’s worth of fun right there!
Brew Angel - May 15, 2009
great idea!
ladybug - May 15, 2009
Cover up the crime with lots of "heart" stickers.
44FAN - May 15, 2009
Im "on call" at work all weekend...
so whether I will be able to watch or listen to ANY of the Texas series is a big question.
Other than that Im doing some reading, finishing up some writing as well.

matthiasstephan - May 15, 2009
Copenhagen

Copenhagen you can see it in my smile
Copenhagen do yourself a favor chew
Copenhagen drivin’ pretty girls wild!
Or does that not go with French Impressionist art?
Brew Angel - May 15, 2009
I once daytripped to Frisco
to see a Phillip Guston retrospective, but yeah, Copenhagen is farther than Nina Hagen…
Rev Halofan - May 15, 2009
Saturday – celebrating the bride’s birthday. Therefore, no ability to watch game.

List of what I'm doing...
I don’t have times, so I hope to have nobody stock me.
Daughter goes back to her mom, saturday morning.
Girlfriend comes over shortly after.
Lots of napping.
Runs to Costco, Target, etc.
Maybe a trip to Dave and Buster’s, I’ve got coupons.
I’m kind of hoping for a trip to the Movies.
And certainly making the Angels part of the routine.
Jay Cal - May 15, 2009

Started off with Angels & Demons lastnight.
Fri: Put in a couple of hours at the office.
Had lunch at Silky Sullivans (Seared ahi, Ceaser salad).
Just got home, and about to go to the gym.
Watch Angels baseball. Maybe head out to a bar but stay sober.
Sat: Put in a couple of hours at the office, go to the gym, run errands, pay bills, watch Angels baseball. Not sure after that yet.
Sun: I can’t think that far ahead other than watch Angels baseball, probably work on a painting, chill out., walk to the beach, and be happy I’m single with no kids….
Funke5ive - May 15, 2009
No, Angels and Demons was yesterday afternoon
Assuming you have the proper view of the BoSux….
red floyd - May 15, 2009
I see the name "Angels and Demons"...
…and the Beach Boys song “Heroes and Villians” pops in my head…weird.
sothball - May 15, 2009
No, It was 12:01am this morning

Funke5ive - May 15, 2009
Angels - Golf - Angels - Golf
That about sums it up with a bunch of beers spread out over the whole thing
hauldog - May 15, 2009
Working mostly
1. Got a grant to check the role silicon plays in fighting disease in cucumber. The crop is on the other side of the island (25 minutes) so I’ll be running back and forth from the University.
2. Try to keep my friends from stealing eggplant, tomato, pepper, and cucumber seedlings from my nursery. Might drink a few beers with friends at some point this weekend if they don’t irritate me too much.
3. Try to catch the Angels games, maybe join the thread.
4. Sunday breakfast routine with the wife.

some friends and I are gona sit around trading albums in preparation for our various bands to go on tour (you need about 50 GIGs of music in the van to keep from killing each other while driving across the midwest.) We’re also gona go hit some balls and watch the games at our local dive bar.
gitchogritchoffmypetis - May 15, 2009

To DC to be more exact. Business, not pleasure :-(
I have a Slingbox though, so I’ll be watching all of the games from my hotel room. Woot! Woot!
