Good Morning Oh Kee Pa (Part 1)

morning all. my buddy had a project he needed to do involving time and movement or something like that…what it came down to is, whats the most efficient way to open a beer…there were lots of beers (smithwicks), but we opened and drank them all. went to the bar, they let us go around the bar to film them opening two beers at once with their openers…which led to me being filmed outside smoking a cigarette, slurring “OBVIOUSLY THE EASIEST WAY TO OPEN A BEER…JUST GO TO THE FUCKING BAR!” that was the conclusion for his project.

6:30 came way to fast this morning. :sick: :crazy:

Hangovers, dead cars, flurries, anticipation, pizza, pepperjack ski time, rainy, sleepy day to get thru here, seems like an interesting time for all of us today.

I was wiped out this morning, got in from rehearsal at 1.20 or some shit. Not gettin much done here at work … disc golfing saturday though! I need to calm down about that before my expectations get too high.

Sometimes things are so exciting to look forward to they become a bit of a letdown if they’ don’t turn out as euphorian utopian heavenly perfection. You know like bacon is. That’s it! I’ll just bring bacon with me.

#8223

man i know how you feel, i cant wait to get out and do some frolfing. and fishing…i want to do them both on saturday, but will it be nice enough? will i have time after work to do so if it is?

#8224

i need to get off my ass and go volunteer and help put up an exhibit. i said i would yesterday, but totally don’t feel like it today and would rather go work on making prints. what to do, what to do :think:

#8225

That’s pretty cool.

#8226

Ah, Friday. Worked my ass off yesterday, and then had to go to my company office for my annual evaluation. Found out I got a 5% raise this year which is much more than I expected with the economy and all. Think I’ll celebrate by working a half day today. :clap:

#8227

Congrats Bill! Raises are awesome! Haven’t seen one in over a year :think:

Thoughts go out to all those in Japan and surrounding areas. Watch out West Coast! :wtf:

Friday is here finally. :thumbup:

Just got to get through today and Monday at the office and then I’m off for week!! YES! :clap:

Gooooooooooooooooooooood Morning Pa :wave:

Have a good effing weekend :mrgreen:

^You should go hang with my little brother while you’re in San Diego…oh wait nevermind, he sucks :slight_smile:

Good morning!

Feeling very sore this morning. Got up early to run double my usual 1.5 mile route around the neighborhood, but instead I had to drive to the YMCA thanks to snow. That ate up about 20 minutes of run time, so I only ran about 2.5 miles in 35 minutes as opposed to the 3.15 miles I planned to run in an hour. I was DYING by 2.5 miles. I’m honestly worried I’m not going to be able to finish (running the entire course, that is) the 5k tomorrow. Yeah I can walk, but I don’t fucking want to! North Asheville is very hilly, so I did the hills program while on the treadmill in preparation, but I’m hoping there are more flat spots than there were at the Y! If you don’t see me this summer, you know what happened :slight_smile:

Hope you guys all have a fantastic weekend!

G’mornin’ Pa!

14 minutes till showtime! Rock it out! :thumbup:

#8230

Morning! It’s race day and I’m pretty much freaking out, but not in a basketcase sorta way. I went to complete my registration lastnight and decided to take a little drive of the course. Holy hills, Batman!! I knew North Asheville was hilly, but goddamn. It’s by no means flat here, but what I’ve been running isnt shit compared to this course. It’s definitely a tough 1st run (especially for a beginner) that I should have been training for MUCH more diligently. This will be quite a challenge for me. Add to that, my left knee has been pissed at me since yesterday, so I really just hope I can finish. If I come in 299 out of 300…hell, if I come in 300th out of 300, then I’ve still accomplished something! All I can think of is how good my yoga class is going to feel today. That’s my tackling fuel :slight_smile:

So anyhow, hope you guys have a great Saturday!

#8231

Good luck!

Totally flaked and slept in. Was going to try for a sweet pav for Raleigh. Now all that’s left is one in the back row of the uncovered pav and I’m not gonna pay full price for that. Don’t really care though, it’s been several weeks since I got to sleep in until whenever I wanted.

#8232

Morning all,…

In case anyone was wondering, Pei is a Jedi.
She’s seriously the coolest. Thanks again.

#8233

Indeed she is. She shepherded me into New York City like Obi-Wan shepherded Luke to Alderaan… wait, that’s a bad example. Umm, like Lando shepherded Han through Cloud City… dammit, also a bad example. I’m no good at these Star Wars analogies anymore.

But seriously, Pei is the bomb. And she deserves every bit of credit she gets around here, and then some! :thumbup:

#8234

She IS THE LADY!!! When we’re out being dumb hippies, she’s always prepared!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Morning PA! Don’t you just love lazy Sundays? I know I do . . .

Champagne brunch at 11:30? Hell yes I do!!

#8235

Slept in!

It’s not even morning anymore.

Coffee and sunshine, morning enough for me.

Pei-Yi = teh bomb. :sunglasses:

#8237

I’ll start my Monday morning off by totally agreeing. It may be difficult to understand until you’ve met her, but she’s just an amazing person. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I swear, I’m turning into a workaholic. I’m crazy busy at work most of the time, and then come home and work all day on my ‘days off’. I need to stop this nonsense.

But I did manage to get a pair of AR wireless speakers going for the dining room. Always been an acoustical ‘deadspot’ in the house, but not anymore. And I can stream from my laptop to them easily as well, so it works out pretty nicely.

This is a short week for me, only three days since my friends begin arriving on Thursday. Really looking forward to some R&R with them. Have a great week ole OKP.

#8238

Good morning. I’ll be really glad when April 6th comes. That is both the day after the divorce hearing (which thankfully I do not have to attend) and the day this friggin grant is due. So there’s gonna be some serious relief that day. Plus that’s like three weeks closer to tour.

#8239

Sho nuff!

Pei worked her magic again this weekend. These ARE the tickets I was looking for!!

Thanks Pei! :mrgreen:

Morning all! :wave:

Monday again! :thumbdown:

Only day in the office this week! :clap:

Leaving for San Diego tomorrow morning! :angel:

Playing GOLF! at Torrey Pines tomorrow and Wednesday!! :thumbup:

Meetings on Thursday and half of Friday. :smiley:

Then Val is flying out to meet me Friday and we get to spend a few days on the beach! :stuck_out_tongue:

#8240

^ Hey I realized this morning that you actually asked me if that was an OAR sticker on my car. I’m not happy about that.
