Summertime
Well, it's MAY. That means that the internationally reknown Anderson Japanese Gardens are open again, and once again, every third Thursday of each month is a Donation Day. Pay-what-you-can day. Wife joined me (only after taking 2 1/2 vicodin), and I took the camera. I took about 170 pictures, culled it down to about 140 at home, and then, yesterday, at the college's wi-fi, uploaded about half of them to Flickr. Enjoy. I gotta say, I really love some of them, but then, for me, they recall the actual site, so the experience comes back to me more than just as a picture. I also took some short video, so I'll see where I can post those. I don't think here. Maybe MySpace, though I haven't been there in a while.
Friday was also a Cobb party. And also, S was running karaoke at a bar at one of our convention centers. I went out to watch her, almost let myself get talked into singing, but didn't, and escorted her out, letting her avoid a potential creepy-bar-guy stalker. The party had wound down a bit by the time we got there, but still had some life left in it. We stayed til 3, taking the title away from D as last to leave. I'd had 2 guiness' at the bar, and then my pint of the captain at the party, so I was somewhat fuzzy by the time I got home.
Today I was going to go play some poker at one of the local Charity games I've gotten into. They have WSOP feeder tourneys, but those are all at least $200 or so to enter. NO WAY. But I have socked away $50 for one of the side table Sit-and-Go tourneys. One table, 10-12 people. Payout for the top three.
I was about to get my shower for the day when S called with a (pirate) emergency, so I went to help her out, and then she took me to lunch at India House. Mmmmm Curry. By the time I got home, mid afternoon, after the lack of sleep the night before, I really didn't feel up to serious money poker. There'll be more tourneys. One on Memorial Day at the end of the month, and one on June 1. I'll hit one of those.
Our anniversary is this next week. 17 years. Hard to believe. If we'd had kids right away, they'd be looking at college by now. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh. I can barely keep the two of us, let alone a kid.
That's it for now. Still no news on the job front.
