Goings OnToday's a soccer day - Alec and Fran both had games. I went to Fran's game and Melissa's at Alec's, Drew stayed home and enjoyed the Air Conditioned Comfort.
I have a new computer - used a little of my bonus from work to get myself a good deal on an HP. It's nice and shiny, with all kinds of nifty stuff. So far, Vista hasn't been a big problem.
I spent the last 3 weeks training 2 workers from India, they've gone back to Bangalore and will train their co-workers, so when I get there, I'll be able to spend my 2 weeks concentrating on higher-level stuff and less on the basics. That trip, BTW, is about 2 weeks away.
We also have new garage doors, to replace the ones we had that were really crapped out. Makes the house look a lot better, I think.
Hopefully, I'll be able to get back into blogging more often starting next week. I plan to record some vlogs while I'm in India, so there's that to look forward to.
Oh, and Vijay (not his real name), one of the folks I trained, has promised to help get a cricket game set up so I can learn how to play while I'm in India.
Now I've got some garage reorganizing to do - later, 'gators.

Domestic Disturbance: When To RunMelissa's latest column is up.
When To RunI blame Cameron Crowe. That iconic shot of John Cusack standing outside of Ione Skye's window with the boom-box in Say Anything made borderline stalkerish behavior look charming end endearing. In real life, Lloyd Dobler probably would have been slapped with a restraining order, but in fiction his persistence wins Diane's heart. And Lloyd is hardly the only stalker glorified by popular culture. Movies and TV shows are full of heroes who don't understand that no means no. Is it any wonder that real men can't always grasp this point?

Busier Than A One-Legged Man In An Ass-Kicking ContestYes, that busy. I've been doing a lot of work lately preparing for various things - my business trip to India, training folks here at work and, most importantly, Getting My Shit Together In One Itty-Bitty Little Bag.
So I've been even
busier.
Trust me on this - once this whole India foofraw is over, I'm gonna have some FUCKING AWESOME stories to tell.
