garcia/rattay

( rants )

i blame coach dennis erickson completely for the absolute disaster that happened today to the niners. i understand the idea of loyalty to your “star” player, but come on, we’re in this to win games, not be loyal losers!

tea and crumpets?

yesterday i went to gina’s baby shower. this was my first baby shower and i don’t think that i will be going to too many of these. i was asked to go to the baby shower and help take pictures of the event. the baby shower was at the laurel court at [...]

this year’s thanksgiving

this past year has definitely given me many [...]

pMachine…grrr

( techie )

so it turns out that the free version of this software does not let you post events. grrrr. what good is a calendar if you can’t use it for scheduling as well? I can’t get myself to buy the software, so i guess i’m going to have to hack my way into [...]

oh yeah, the reason behind the blog

i’ve been fighting it for a long, long time now. i didn’t want to be known as a blogger. i didn’t think that it would be good for me to start up blogging. i liked that i did things in an archaic way. i liked that i made life hard for [...]

pizza, games, and otherwise

last night i had everything planned. i was going to leave work early so that i could go and pick up a birthday cake for dardy and also pizza for everyone else. the usual bowling crowd has temporarily moved bowling over to a more general “fun night out”. last week we played [...]
