I’ll always remember that I had a swingin’ time*

While the fog in my brain is still drifting, here's a quick recap of the Vegas trip:

  • Jimmy Carter was on our flight there.
  • I almost threw up from the turbulence.  I don't know about Jimmy, though.
  • Taxis are a very important commodity in Vegas.
  • 6 beers for breakfast is not a good idea.
  • Something in the air there makes you sleep a lot less.
  • I get cranky when I sleep a lot less.
  • I really ought to go out dancing more.
  • It's all about who you know.
  • I put a dollar in, and I didn't get a car (but I got $20)
  • I married George Clooney.
  • I really, really hate cigarette smoke.

24 hours until I arrive at the airport to meet

2 of my very best friends for

4 days in Vegas along with

19 other great girlfriends that I've known for over

7 years, spread out in

1 hotel and with

7 rooms between us for our

1 trip together (per year) and a hell of a good time.

Why Google? Why?

Google Calendar is failing me.

I can't get the damn thing to pull up on my desktop at work.  Of course, this is right after I started relying on it entirely for work appointments, etc.  It takes forever to load, and when it does, the top and side bars show up, but the rest?  Notsomuch.  In Firefox and IE.  I have no problems when using the Powerbook, though.

I've checked the Java stuff, allowed and unallowed and reallowed sharing, cut down on the number of calendars, etc., but to no avail.

Anyone?

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Like I previously stated, I went to see the Yeah Yeah Yeahs on Saturday.

Holy fuck, what a great show.  Karen O, how I love thee!  Yellow and purple jumpsuits - rock!  I also managed to get a little snippet of video.  They're performing "Y Control" (unfortunately I didn't get "Gold Lion," especially since I know how much Duane loves that song).
