Morning Bar..

figured since the Bar has a new look I would go ahead and gift my couch to the new place.

My ex says it reminds her of me and I don't have the room for it.

PS If you find my tv remote please gift it back.

Lucky what is that for? What do you so? Is it your field or just a job requirement? Can you tell I'm reaching a certain age where it actually sounds interesting to me? Good morning everybody. I have to dash off to work. My eyes are finally open. OK. Just one with friends. Pass your glasses down here, I'll pour.

:lol: you guys are soooooooo funny :coffee:

Ratty as you near the age contact your SHIP office (state health insurance assistance plan) and talk to a counselor (it's free) and they can help you with ins & outs and the supplemental program that will be right for you.

I'll have Tricare For Life, so this should be easy once I get to that age. Even better than Tricare Prime, I can choose my own doctors instead of angling for referrals.

Whew, I survived Monday! It wasn't that anything was particularly impossible as much as there was just so much going on. Between keynotes and launches things were crazy enough, but then working on getting other ducks in a row was a lot more. But hooray, I finally got the google and bing junk sorted out for the board and the tickets sorted out for the GLC next week. I'll be covering the event for the voices of Burning Man twitter feed again, and also doing some kind of talk or demo of ePlaya in one of the sessions. A couple other meetings for different projects also got set up for next week, I think from Wednesday through Sunday is going to be a real white knuckle ride. I'm hoping for a little bit of calm today, I want to work a bit on my camp plans so I can get through my placement questionnaire soon... and a couple creative projects that I want to spend time with.

It's a bright and sunny day here in the bay (sorry mgb327, all you got to see was rain), hopefully everyone's day kicks ass!

Went to the Utah caucus last night. The lines were astonishing. I was in my wheelchair, so we went in the back handicapped entrance, no line. I hear they ran out of ballots.

Ticket sale day means dino jammies! Though I may need to switch to something lighter, man this thing is warm. Thank goodness for that on cold playa nights, but here in the city... not so much.

Goodnight Bar. It's been a very tiring day. I guess we all have a days like that sometimes. I'm not drinking, though.

YES! I got a ticket and a vehicle pass. Caffeineslinger thanks for remembering me. I feel so sorry for everyone that missed out today. It's a crushing blow. Don't give up. The more involved you are, the more friends you make and the better your chances are for getting a ticket. I wouldn't have made it last year without my involvement in the off season. (And ePlaya friends.) Help with projects. Volunteer at local events. Have some fun. Tickets will be shaking loose up until the gates open.

No drink for me. I'm working.
