Things got so busy I never got around to posting about the trip Kevin and I took with Rick and Randy to Palm Springs. The weekend was REALLY nice - we spent the weekend going on hikes through the mountains and desert (including Joshua Tree national park), hangin out by the pool, and going out [...]
Well, he’s not really a Blog guest - I’ve known him since well before I started doin the Blog thing. But still..
Rodney and his boyfriend Greg came to stay with us for the weekend. Was really nice. Rodney is an old friend of Kevin’s that I met a few years ago and then went to [...]
I woke up this morning thinking there was a very good chance I could be spending the next 6 weeks in a jury box hearing a case that I can only assume (based on the jury questionnaire) was some smoking / asbestos cancer related case. Last tuesday I got called in for the first round [...]

Just got back from dinner with this guy. Poor guy spent the weekend trying to track me down but work kept foiling his attempts - and i’m SERIOUSLY bummed about it. Ian and Jay were in town for the weekend but I was stuck working for the better part of it so tonight was the [...]

Just found this:
