Disconnect

"The largest gathering of funds of hedge funds and their investors in the world." I just keep asking myself, if the GMAT is as difficult as my practice scores suggest. Why do mailings like this exist? Unless of course the extraplanetary investors were intentionally not invited to this gathering.

Victory

This is a glimpse of the victory prize - most improved % of invoices processed by the 15th. Business culture is strange.

Autumn?

Trouble

With about 6 cruisers and 2 county coroners the credit union looked like trouble. Then I noticed the NYPD letters. Ahh LA is a special place.

Pig is home

So as a kid I was always really excited to receive one of my parents prized keepsakes. There was the blue stuffed dog with a yellow beret - bluebell, there was the pearl handled pocket knife - pocket knives are especially easy to lose, and finally there is the silver piggy bank. Unlike those other keepsakes i've always been able to keep closer tabs on the pig. Probably mostly due to the fact that he always lived on my dresser. So now after 2 years of clothes in boxes, the pig can finally return to dresser pastures. Farewell sock box.

Photos on the sly

I'll need to come up with some distracting camoflage so I can take photos of people on the bus. There was a real character this morning.

CSI Vegas...

...finished filming at the tower theater on 8th and Broadway and the security guard let me in cause I promised to buy the place.

I think

...that most of my creative energies these days are practiced while I'm asleep. My dreams have been vivid and elaborate and my days pleasantly routine.

No "pop-in" for me

Somehow neither the Golden Gopher nor Slim's Dark Tunnel in Oakland ever inspired me to pop-in for a drink. Though I bet the gopher might really like slim's tunnel.

Happy knives

Our knives haven't been so happy since their most recent sharpening episode! But now, no nicks, cutting convenience, all one could want - may seem to be a trifle but there is something wonderful about happy knives.

Sloth Attack

In all, a wonderful weekend. Though I'm noticing that the "surprised" brother hasn't returned any texts lately.
