Definitely in the wrong field!


Once again a somewhat modern marvel brings me disappointment in my college career selection. :) Here is a great find for a company. To find so much on galleon ship is just remarkable. Oh the envy! Here's to hoping those pearls hit the market one day. :D

Other great news, my bro found a baby kitten in one of his basement windows. He's currently feeding it with an eye dropper but it should be moving to a little shallow bowl pretty soon. He said it's shaking when it's standing so it doesn't have it's muscles built up just yet. Oh the cuteness of a spanking new kitty. I guess it doesn't meow much so that makes it almost perfect. Found out it's a girl and they named her Comet. Now that is perfect. Hope to see the baby today after work so maybe I can get pics up either tonight or tomorrow.

The move day has been determined. It won't be the slow move like I wish but a four hour one fell sweep works too. The big day will be JULY 7th. I'll shot an email to the very helpful movers next week with a reminder before the big 4th of July celebration. I'm thinking of 8am. I know it's early and trust me I'm not a big fan of this time frame either. I rather have it all done before noon than doing all this in the blazing heat. The winning prize??? Pizza and Beer. Well maybe not pizza....but definitely food and Beer.

Was watching The Lake House again. (I would post a link to the movie's website but I'm not able to from work.) I'm not sure what gets me about the movie but I totally love it. I have it and have watched on cable more than I have pulled out the DVD. So here are my big freak items about the movie. One: Keanu Reeves Second: Sandra Bullock Third: various parts of the story Fourth: the whole concept Fifth: the writing back and forth. I could really go on and on about the movie but I won't for fear of boring my few readers. :)

So in the spirit of the previous paragraph here is my question for ponder. If you have or will write a letter to your intended/intending partner, how would you start such a letter? (Hey babe doesn't count.)

Time to Dine out for a cause

The Dine Out 4 Life is June 14th. Make sure you get out there if you're not going out with me to some place!! Since I work new hours I'm thinking of some place that requires more than jeans. Also should try some place that one hasn't been to before. It's a great way to get a feeling for the place while helping out a great cause. Keep that in mind folks. :)

I posted before my new hours so I have enough time to get home and change or if doing something around 5 or 530 I can bring a change of clothing with me. I'm kinda digging these new hours. I might change my mind once colder weather kicks in but for now, it's awesome!

Summer festival season has started. Last weekend was Riversplash. I was busy with my cute little nephew's Boy Scout/Cub Scout derby car races at the Zoo on Saturday. He did pretty well. Out of 60 cars he took 3rd place. That meant he had to come back the next day to compete with another 60 cars that were from 5 other Milwaukee Districts. He placed 8th on those runs. Way to go cute little nephew!!

This weekend is PrideFest with Kathy Griffin tomorrow night. Taste of Summer in Waukesha. It started yesterday and goes until Sunday. Saturday has the BandSlam Battle Royale in Washington Park. Sunday is the Locust Street Festival. Get your party on there if'n you like to be part of a big block party. Heard in the past it's been fun. Oh the small Greek church is having their Festival this weekend. It's off of 76th and near North Ave. I'll be there around noonish on Saturday. I'll be with the family if you want to come and have some good Greek food. I guess Sturtevant is having their Strawberry Festival next week (11th to 17th).

There are quite a few concerts/acts showing up here this summer so get out there while you can. Enjoy the weather everyone!!
