Do you watch So You Think You Can Dance?

Next week is the finale. Watch it!



On a different note... the Controller's group is holding a little ping pong tournament at work today and tomorrow. Now the 2 of you that read this know that I've won my fair share of olive oil and trophies. So I decided to sit out on this tournament.

They set up a table in the conference room right next to me and it's LOUD. Nothing like ping pong to bring an entire floor together. :)

I RAN OVER A PIGEON ON SATURDAY.

ICK, ICK, ICK.

I've been asked whether I actually play more than work because I've been all over these days. I assure you, I'm a very hard worker (despite what some people might say). :)

I was reminded that this time last year, I was here:







What was I thinking??

Talking about ringtones with a friend today...

This was a few years ago when my dad got a new phone. He asked us to download a new ringtone for him.

Being a PASTOR and all, we went to the Christian section and played for him selections such as "Hallelujah chorus" and "Amazing Grace." He flat out rejected all of them.

As we were browsing, my brother got a phone call and my dad requested the same ringtone as my brother.

The result?

"I love it when you call me Big Poppa"

:)

Sadly, no pictures of me holding a gallon of olive oil this year.

Yesterday was the annual ping pong tournament among some churches in the Bay Area. Although my partner has moved to Hawaii and left me to defend the title alone, I had high hopes because my new partner was doing pretty well. We won 3 games in a row and lost in the semis. Sad, because we could have played better. There's always next year.

The loot from this year? Fly swatters. :)

I'm off to Seattle at the end of the month. Hopefully I'll have some new pictures up here soon.

Can I just say that I freaking hate the smell of microwave/movie theater popcorn??

Some of you may already know, but right around 2:30 - 3pm in the office, someone pops a bag of nasty popcorn and stinks up the entire floor. Gives me a headache.

UGH.
