Unless you are actually that important, knock it off. Otherwise, get a helmet.

I witnessed a Blackberry-related collision in my building’s lobby this morning. I was standing waiting for the elevator with guy #1, when guy #2 comes around the corner, head down thumbing away and, BAM, runs right into guy #1. It was hilarious. I had heard about the perils of the mobile workforce, and now I can bear witness.
I’m a little over-tired from an unpleasantly busy week, so I ordered an extra large coffee at Tim’s this morning, and now I am shaking slightly. I wouldn’t do it often, but it is actually kind of fun.

You cannot consider yourself an adult…

…if you have to bring vodka coolers to your softball game. Either learn to drink beer like a grown-up or don’t bother at all. Seriously, it is called a BEER LEAGUE. Grow up.

I played softball for the first time in YEARS last night. It was awesome, although I didn't get on base once and I missed two line drive catches. I was subbing for a team that a bunch of people at work play for, as well as a former co-worker C. C is moving to Seattle, and we'll all miss her lots, but I am pumped that I might get to take her spot on the team! :)

One down, five to go

With 8 straight days of hiking looming only four weeks away, I have set myself the goal of doing the Grouse Grind 6 times between today and July 12. So, tonight was climb number 1 with a time of 1:07:08, which is a great improvement over my most recent effort (apparently chatting and singing at the top of one's lungs does slow you down a bit). It was a beautiful evening, and I actually enjoyed the hike quite a bit. I don't think I've ever done it by myself before and, as nice as it is to have company, I sort of liked that I could get into a nice rhythm of my own. I'm almost, sort of, a bit looking forward to next time. Kinda.

Just finished making a pie

Spending the night in tonight. Mark is off at his 10-year high school reunion, so I am on my own. And on a Saturday night at home, what do I like to do? Practice my eye makeup and engage in domestic chores, of course. So I did up my eyes very dark and sultry and then made a pie to take to Mark's sister's tomorrow evening. Peach-raspberry. Then I did the dishes and folded some laundry. All I need is a tiara, and I'll be ready to do some vacuuming.
