Had a minute, thought I'd write

I spent most of my weekend in Azeroth. It was good to spend a lot of time on a mindless or let me say pointless use of my faculties. I don’t think its mindless as there is a lot of brain work that h as to go on figuring out what to do, when to do it and other strategies. I cleaned up my character list a little and deleted all my characters except one: a Dwarf I made about a week ago and have him to level 30 already. Given there wasn’t any football that interested me, basketball hasn’t started for real yet, and baseball I am just not into as the White Sox didn’t make it in after all their efforts. We did most of our shopping on Friday and my wife took the little devil with her on some mini errands on Saturday so I got to splurge in self indulgent crap for two days.


Aside from our diet this weekend, I think we had a fairly decent time. The meals we had were not that grand. I spilled the seasoning I planned to use on my stew and had to improvise and it didn’t turn out as I wished. I made bread sticks minus a key ingredient and that had the entire house, dogs included, bound up for a day or so since they were so heavy. Here’s to next weekend being better in the culinary realm.

I have a big meeting this week with U.S. Cellular®. It’s our annual meeting to discover how well we are doing on the culture and what we need to focus on that will move us forward on how we do business. That takes up some time and for the first time isn’t occurring on the weekend. This is nice save that I am missing my regular Anthropology class but my professor has me coming in on Wednesday to be able to stay on schedule with my lectures, which is cool. Another exam, the second of the term, is scheduled the following week. Yippee.

Fantasy football stinks this year: not because I am not winning. I am 4 and 1 in one league, 3 and 2 in two others and 2 and three in one league. Its just so frikin’ inconsistent and annoying: And this year, it doesn’t make watching anymore fun. If I do it next year, I may just do one team because this year is definitely not fun at all. I am always conflicted because I don’t have the same players on every team so sometimes I am playing against a player I need to win in another league. Stinks, I won’t be doing that again. And of course UT has fallen down a cesspool and fell apart AGAIN. I’m starting to wonder if they will bounce back in my lifetime given my age and the rate of change being so slow at that university as well as the damage done by ignorant Lane Kiffin.

And off I go. Meetings with leaders from around the company today as they are all in town for the meeting this week. So I get to see lots of friends from all over the company.
