Is that your rottweiler's tongue, or a drop of drool coming from its mouth?

In either case, I want to pet him.

tongue. I want to own him! (I miss not having a dog)

A bird is a lot like a dog, right?

My favorite restaurant has just discontinued my favorite meal.

Darnit!!! There goes that idea for post-chemo happiness.

Guess what? We've got woodchucks in our yard!!!!!!!!!

What restaurant?

Also, this whole CTF thing is really wearing on me. I don't think I'll be doing it much longer.

Easy Street Brasserie, Park City.

And what is CTF?

CAPTURE THE FLAG!!!!!
I don't know why I wrote it excitedly, since I have never participated.

i suspect it is draining on you because you feel you have a recurring commitment that interferes with your valuable personal time, and you head down there without knowing if anyone/enough people are going to show up. pass the reins, make it an occasional thing with personal commitments from participants, or let it die. Of course this is coming from the guy who doesn't participate, so what would I know.

Park City is too far for me. It's also too yuppie. I know this is my own psychological issue, but I really do have a chip on my shoulder in regards to pretentious rich kids. That said... let's hit it up sometime and piss them all off.

*** WARNING: I'M ABOUT TO GO ON A PERSONAL VENT ***

CTF is wearing just because it's so much effort for such little enthusiasm/appreciation. Yesterday I was cranky (tired, sore, hungry) and had 4 different things going on. I put off and re-arranged lots of stuff to make this happen.

Kaboom was a savior and did some of the invites for me. Bless his heart for trying. His efforts resulted in two people coming -- one of which was a total newbie. Good times.

Picking up Semicolons was admittedly a pain because:
1. I wanted to leave work early and go to the gym, but his need for a ride and his location made that impossible.
2. His whole area of the neighborhood is a nightmare of construction traffic.
3. My post CTF plans were at the University. By the time I had dropped him off, I didn't have the energy/time to drive all the way back.

I realize this is all my bad for just taking too much responsibility and having too poor of organization. From here on out, I'm going to leave it up to everyone to just be self-reliant. If things fall apart, it'll be sad but that's just the way it goes. Everyone is stretched pretty tight on either time, resources, or both.

Park city has an overpriced thai place with tasty food. Called like "Thai on main" or something like that. Liked the food. hated the ski tourists. But you know me; at the end of the day my stomach makes the decisions.

FWIW self-reliance is a good thing even if getting there is a little rocky.

Speaking of Rocky, I want to watch rocky 3 so I can see him beat up hulk hogan AND Mr T. I pity the fool.
