Decision Made

2009-07-09T15:10:00.000-07:00

Yep - did it...finally. It took longer to make the decision than it will to pack up and get out. Going to take the jump and make the move - making arrangements today for transport...proly get outta the Pacific Northwest, at least temporarily, on Wednesday as I have a job interview in Sactown on Thursday......woo hoo (I think)

For those of you who I have had the pleasure of meeting, chatting with, having laughs and fun, it's been all my pleasure - I have truly enjoyed my time here but it feels as though it is time to re-invent and I don't think I can do that here........so

Happy Trails!

Decision Day

2009-07-08T14:17:00.000-07:00

Today is the day I set as a deadline to decide whether I was going to attempt to stay in Seattle or head back to Northern California. It is 2:15 and I have to decide (self-imposed deadline) by 6pm.

Things got complicated when I was contacted by someone who is interested in me coming to work for them - in California...they want to interview me next Thursday after a telephone interview today....UGH

Today in Seattle

2009-07-08T14:06:00.000-07:00

Kind of funny - thinking about things as my journey here in Seattle (4 1/2 years) is coming to a close and i was struck by an irony today as I was listening to a local tv station - Last week all you heard from the locals was how friggin hot it was for several days - I mean it got all the way up to 90 degrees for a day and in the upper 80's for a couple more days - Now I gotta tell you, having lived in Texas, for several years, where it is regularly over 90 degrees, along with 80% humidity in the summer, I found myself chuckling a lot about some of these weinies.....

Today, we are experiencing our third day in a row of upper 60's and a little bit of rain today - the theme I heard today was "When the hell is Summer going to get here?"

This Morning's Obsessions

2009-07-08T14:00:00.001-07:00

I know my interests can be varied...a little scattered but

My oh My

These boys are all pretty Hot!

Tribute by Dr. Maya Angelou

2009-07-07T16:57:00.001-07:00

Im not the most fervent of MJ fans but I will tell you that Dr. Angelou's poem and Queen Latifah's reciting of those words were certainly cause for pause!

"We Had Him”:

Beloveds, now we know that we know nothing, now that our bright and shining star can slip away from our fingertips like a puff of summer wind.

Without notice, our dear love can escape our doting embrace. Sing our songs among the stars and walk our dances across the face of the moon.

In the instant that Michael is gone, we know nothing. No clocks can tell time. No oceans can rush our tides with the abrupt absence of our treasure.

Though we are many, each of us is achingly alone, piercingly alone.

Only when we confess our confusion can we remember that he was a gift to us and we did have him.

He came to us from the creator, trailing creativity in abundance.

Despite the anguish, his life was sheathed in mother love, family love, and survived and did more than that.

He thrived with passion and compassion, humor and style. We had him whether we know who he was or did not know, he was ours and we were his.

We had him, beautiful, delighting our eyes.

His hat, aslant over his brow, and took a pose on his toes for all of us.

And we laughed and stomped our feet for him.

We were enchanted with his passion because he held nothing. He gave us all he had been given.

Today in Tokyo, beneath the Eiffel Tower, in Ghana’s Black Star Square.
In Johannesburg and Pittsburgh, in Birmingham, Alabama, and Birmingham, England

We are missing Michael.

Need a Laugh??

2009-07-07T12:52:00.001-07:00

I Think this is one of the best (and funniest) quotes of the decade!!

Judge Judy to prostitute : 'So when did you realize you were raped?' Prostitute, wiping away tears: 'When the check bounced.'

Hangin with Mr Cooper!

2009-07-07T12:48:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the gun show So, word on the street says Anderson Cooper is "riding bikes in Chelsea" (Dating....) with Benjamin Maisani, a hunky Parisian who was a bartender at Barracuda before becoming a co-owner of the East Village watering hole Eastern Bloc. From what I've seen, I'm ready to give them the KIT212 seal of approval ... what do you think?

From Kenneth in the (212)

Now On To Today's "New Favorite Obsessions"

R I P

I LOVE CALVIN

2009-07-06T16:17:00.000-07:00

Oh the quintessential pair of Calvins. They are just underwear after all... no, they are more than that. They're an icon for the male form and its beauty. Everyone wants to fill out their favorite pair of Calvins. I know I'm not the only one who owns a few pairs, and pretends not to look at them when I walk by the underwear section at my local department store.

My New Favorite ...er...Boxer Briefs - MAN O MAN

2009-07-06T16:10:00.001-07:00

Sure Gets Me goin - Judson Manor from All American Guys

I'M A CELEBRITY - GET ME OUTTA HERE

2009-07-06T15:04:00.000-07:00

From a Gail Collins column

“Life is about choices!” declared the nation’s most anti-choice politician.“And a problem in our country today is apathy,” she said on Friday as she announced that she would resign as governor of Alaska at the end of the month. “It would be apathetic to just hunker down and ‘go with the flow.’ Nah, only dead fish ‘go with the flow.’ No. Productive, fulfilled people determine where to put their efforts, choosing to wisely utilize precious time ... to BUILD UP.”

Basically, the point was that Palin is quitting as governor because she’s not a quitter. Or a deceased salmon.So if she’s starting to run (for president), it will be as the same reporter-avoiding, generalization-spouting underachiever that she was last time around.Now we know she not only doesn’t have the concentration to read a policy paper, she can’t focus long enough to finish the job she was hired to do.

My New Favorite Obsession

2009-07-06T13:26:00.000-07:00

Though I haven't played in a long time I am a dedicated Tennis freak - I was really excited that Roddick was playing so well and representing......and then the match! Damn, I so wanted him to win......even I had to admit it was one of the best I've seen in a long time, other than last years Nadal-Federer match. I'm afraid he's becoming my new favorite obsession.

I wanna tell Andy that I've Got his Backside...er I mean his back!!

My New Favorite Wine!

2009-07-06T12:50:00.001-07:00

Had the opportunity to attend their Spring/Summer release party for the new vintages. The Viognier and their Syrah were outstanding - but the best is last years Merlot! If your in Seattle drop me a line and I will tell you where to find it!

Cheers

Great Show!!

2009-07-06T11:51:00.000-07:00

Seattle did it again with it's great Fireworks display - this was the only game in town this year so there had to be at least 100,000 people on the streets around Lake Union - that doesn't include folks in boats or in the high-rises that surround the lake - Great job folks!
