Helpless

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

I feel so utterly and completely helpless. It’s been a theme. Remember when I was teaching the Welcoming Congregation class at SVUUS? About a month ago, my co-teacher (Alice) and her husband (Hank) were in a car accident. I got the news earlier today that Hank passed away. Remember when I promised to stop referring [...]

Cyclecide

Monday, July 24th, 2006

So I headed down to the bookstore and found out that Jessica and Jennifer were thrift store shopping in the same area, so we met up for coffee at Ritual Coffee Roasters. Jennifer headed home and Jessica talked me into going to Pedal Monster for Cyclecide, which was crazy and fun. The giant sculpture that [...]

It’s hot here!

Sunday, July 23rd, 2006

San Francisco seems to be experiencing an unusually warm July. Yesterday I felt hot wearing t-shirt and shorts. Today, I don’t even want to get out of bed. There’s a fundraiser thing I’m supposed to go to this afternoon, but I’m not sure if I’m up to it. Just want to lie here watching TV [...]

Exciting and Depressing

Saturday, July 22nd, 2006

So exciting and depressing.Yep, that’s been my day. Work was okay, but nothing spectacular. The office is all mine, now, but other than that, nothing newswothy about my work day. Although, at the end of the day, I got a call from a guy from the other place where I interviewed. He is the director [...]

Thoughts on Work and Other Matters

Friday, July 21st, 2006

I had to go back and f-lock a few posts because the HR director at my new job is a big yelper and I totally forgot (when telling him that I was signed on as well) that my profile linked here, and it would be a bad thing for him to be reading about my [...]

Why me?

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006

So the insomnia has struck again and I’m up way past bedtime! Plus, I seem to be on an iTunes shopping spree that I can’t tear myself away from. But the big question I have… Why does the iTunes store keep reccomending that awful Paris Hilton song? Why does iTunes think that it matches up [...]

Buffy Season 8?

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006

Freakin’ Awesome! There is hope, there is reason to go on… Caution: Link contains spoilers! The non-spoilery part… From comics she was born, and to comics she shall return: Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s post-cancellation adventures will soon begin anew — penned by Joss Whedon himself — in the pages of Dark Horse Comics. Here’s an [...]

The Second Day

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006

The second day at the job was better. I was able to start making plans and generating ideas. I spent an hour with one of the program heads learning about the specifics of his program, which was fascinating. There’s still a lot of down-time since I can’t really get on the computer. Tomorrow involves committee [...]

First Day at Work

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

The first day at work was interesting. Spent the morning doing HR/paperwork stuff, then spent a few hours with the gal I’m replacing. I don’t want to say too much about first impressions, but this week is going to be weird since there really isn’t space for me until she clears out at the end [...]

AIDS Walk Details

Monday, July 17th, 2006

I promised a few more details about the AIDS Walk, so here they come. You can check my last post for pics, or view the entire album on Flickr. So I got nice and early for the Walk, but decided I’d skip the shower since I’d need one after the walk anyway. I arrived at [...]
