    turns out that the insurance plan that I have doesn't cover dental visits. Ugg... Time to shell out $90 for an x-ray and dental exam. Ok, I'm going to render Genesis now.

    ...speaking of noms, big pot of beef in red curry currently simmering.


    In a few, will be time to heat up the wok, let my special stir fry spice elixir simmer while chopping up some veggies, and then toss them in.


    Saw promo the other night for what looks like an amateur cook off show ala the Iron Chef. May have to investigate further. I think I could be a contender.

    ...not seeing much in the way of rain on the radar whee you are but those clouds sure look ominous.

    Melbourne and other places in the world have much nicer webcams on the weather site I use than what they give us here in the states. Mostly what we get are the state and local DOT traffic cams which are all aimed at the expressways. Just what I want to see when checking weather conditions elsewhere, nothing but pictures of cars on roads, ugh.

    ...nah, don't believe in them anymore. had too many ripped apart by the wind here. Winter isn't just wet, but often windy as well.

    All I need a good hat, coat and shoes (all waterproofed of course), that's all.

    Besides, I like having both hands free.

    Yes not much rain around for us the past few months, stuff is starting to look reeal dry. At least the dams are close to full from last year :) Right now is overcast and eerie calm, storms can blow up from nowhere they don't call us the shipwreck coast for nothing hehe. We're being told to clear away anything that might blow away the next 48 hours :)

    oh mann got an email for a temp offer

    Good morning,

    Please forgive me if this email reaches you in error.. Are you available for a MS Access VBA project with our client in Midtown NYC? They will start ASAP, most likely from a working interview. Please let me know!

    Sincerely,


    oh i dunno. i been here 12 years but, midtown manhattan money is like lotto money. prolly make in 2 months what i make here in 8.

    don't know what to do :shut:


    ...first, check the link (if one was provided) in Google to see if it is legit. If thee is no link check the sender's address and/or company name. Job recruitment emails are one vector for identity theft, especially with unemployment still high in many ares. I received many of these only to find no such place existed when I Googled it.

    I also tend to get a lot of emails for out of state positions from LinkedIn. Unless it's in a place where I want to live, that has good transit, no "real winter" (at least not months of it), affordable rents, and they will help with all relocation expenses, I reply that I am not interested.

    iz from Robert Half Tech. I've worked through them once before.

    decided against the offer.
    it starts immediately and i'm not about to end 12 years without giving 2 weeks notice. guess i'm just not a bridge burner

    Pythons are pretty cool, I had a few friends that kept Ball Pythons.. they.d slither up on me and fall asleep. :blank:

    Pure snakey goodness! :cheese:

    I've lost 2 umbrellas here to the wind.. it gets stupid windy here. :blank:

    I need a rain poncho or (like you) a waterproof jacket and hat. Or a stout raincoat and hood.

    Urgh.

    Friday, and a few complaints:

    - Still cold and damp outside
    - Neck and shoulders hating on me
    - Have to make bank run in the rain :down:

    Non-complaints:

    - Payday :cheese:
    - Had some money left, bought a few small things AND a new virtual instrument (on sale) :coolsmile:
    - Lasagna for breakfast, home-made by the bosses wife, sooooooo tasty
    - Going to go out for Mexican tonight :)

    Hopefully I can finish a music track this weekend and get some renders in. :)

    I haven't seen any space stations on TV that have stairs. They have elevator lifts and teleportation rooms.

    Hmm... you have a point. Maybe safety reasons? What if you're on the stairs and the ship gets hit by a photon torpedo? :ahhh:

    Easy. Just run from side-to-side while they tilt the camera.

    Why would that be less scary in an elevator? "In case of photon torpedo attack - do not use lift!" :lol:

    ...wow, I didn't even realise there was a test flight. To think I'm a kid from the old "Space Race" days who has seen every manned launch from Friendship 7 to the Skylab missions (including the unmanned Agena and Skylab spacecraft launches). Nothing was more impressive and majestic than seeing that big Saturn V (about as tall as a 32 story skyscraper) lifting off of pad 39A.

    Back then, a launch was a major event that was covered on all three television networks. Liked CBS the best as they had Walter Cronkite calling the shots.

    ...kind of like we often do here in Portland riding while on a Tri Met bus that is negotiating our lovely potholed streets (sans tilted camera). ;-)
