swamp stench

Damn, I still smell like swamp gas today (and I did shower last night). Actually, it's the smell of algae, but that's like differentiating between birds and bats, so I digress.

Last night was a good practice, despite the mud and the concrete hazards. Of course, lighting conditions and the unsafe environment may have led to a bad injury to one beloved straight teammate, but what do you do? We must practice. Other teams are having a harder time of it, I hear.

Here's a gallery of pics from the rugby tournament out near Rehomo a few weeks ago. The one of our coach waving his arms is him doing the haka dance.

There's like a half dozen people I know coming into town this weekend for the rodeo and whatnot. Of course, no one's willing to make plans these days, so I will, and to hell with the rest of y'all. I will do my own thing, and you can join me if you want. You know how I feel about visitors: communicate early, schedule, follow through. It's that simple.

Scoured the various DC job websites this week...it was quiet at work but I only found about two jobs I applied for. My resume's up on USAJOBS, Monster, Hotjobs, craigslist, and all that. It's out there. However, I'm not doing a mass-application to any old job. I'm being picky this time. I have to, as I can't lie very well to myself it seems about a job I don't like. I have to like the job, period. But anyway, if you hear of anything, more eyes help me out a lot, and most jobs I get interviews for are through contacts.

Oooh...just downloaded Alicia Keys singing Prince's "How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore". Shivers ran down my spine. And apparently there's a version of this song featuring Justin Timberlake? I'd spooge in my pants if I heard that.

Hey, I offered you plans, and even planned on going to your rugby match. Don't get snitty with all your blog readers.

How's this for advance notice? I'll be in town over Halloween, likely for 4-5 days. Let's make some sort of plans - I'll even go somewhere nonsmoking in deference to you, 'cause I'm cool like dat.

I stand corrected...Corey is very considerate when making plans.

So, if I share the remix of "How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore" with J-Tim on it, does that mean I get to see you splooge, Jimbo? 'Cause I've got a copy. Just wondering.

I got it! he only sings backup on it though...no main vocals, but it does rock.
