Travel on the Company Dime

I'm not one to count my chickens before they are hatched, less disappointment that way, but the boss sent out a short email yesterday looking for volunteers who would be willing to travel to India to train a handful of techs to do our jobs with a small number of servers. My arm, in reflex action, shot up. I've been sorting out the passport requirements for Argentina in the fall but now I have to rush to get it ready to go in the event they need someone quicker. The good thing about this is that the location of the office is in the really warm part of the country and on the coast of the Bay of Bengal. Get out your atlas kids and look up Chennai.

Cats Are Not Evil (And They Have Talent Too!!)

All of this talk of evil cats and ugly ducklings got Willow a bit perturbed. At her request I am posting this, she tried typing but her feet only mashed the keys. Willow says to click on the link to Airborne Cats and then click on the "view as slideshow" option on the upper right side and sit back and marvel at the skillz these cats in Japan have. Please note: no mice, simulated or otherwise, were harmed in the making of these photos, we don't know where the fish are, and the bird cage door must have been loose.

HONK! (fixed it!)

1)In this scene, Laura played a goose. The geese tried to help return the ugly duckling back to his home, but the evil cat foiled their rescue! Laura is the one with the scarf and aviator hat (aka, in the second row, 4th from the right).


2) Here's Laura and Dad in the lobby.


3)Here is our little chicken in the glorious world of the backstage dressing room.

She did a great job!

Reporters to the Left of Me, Reporters to the Right!

As I stood in line for a bowl of soup in the food court of our building, Paul Hunter and Eric Sorrensen got in line behind me and chatted about the whole David Emerson fiasco.

Pop Tart Mattress

My mattress arrived in a cardboard box that was no where near to the size needed to hold a double mattress. An hour or two after I had cut it free from it's plastic prison it was close to full size, easily 12" thick and very comfortable.
