Odd sight for the day...

...was an ambulance leaving a cemetary. Cuts out the middle man, i suppose.

It was a nice, albeit brief, gathering of G's family at the funeral of her step-grandmother.
I was amazed by the preponderance of flutterbies...er, butterflies. It was almost magical.

Let's see...relevant news from there...Vera's grandchildren from a previous marriage are complete wankers, asking for her wedding ring, mere feet from her open casket. Bubba is opening a chain of Z Pizza stores in San Diego. That's all i got from our brief time at the national cemetary.

I rushed there from the meeting with the big kahuna's from my department where the corporate trainer and i sold them on the idea of having a monthly live meeting called "Tech Talk Tuesday" to address relevant issues with our broad user base. It was very productive, but of course ran long...as we were all running out, we asked the pointed question "Do we have the go ahead?" to the VP of IT and the VP of HR. We recieved their blessings. Literally.

Now we just have to make it work. I'm thinking that for the first one, we need to make an email that resembles a B movie poster..."Attack of the 50 foot Blackberry" or something equally kitchy.

I'm starving and bought comfort food on the way home. We're in for another bout of storms, so I'm off to play with the dogs and get them some exercise and then munching down.
