lot's of things to say coming soon. i just got a new-ish phone (a palm treo 600). the calendar function now has *daily journal* option that allows me to write down things on the fly. i'll post (if i haven't already) things as they come to me...

just did a whirlwind trip this past weekend to san francisco and their pride just for dj paulo's party. totally my favorite dj right now! i literally hopped on a plane at 9pm on saturday night and arrived in oakland right before midnight. got on the BART and then a cab straight to the venue. had a great time (by myself mind you) and was ready to fly back on the 9am flight but i forgot that the BART didn't run on sundays until 8! needless to say, i missed my flight. oh well - i had no choice but to enjoy the afternoon shenanigans at pride ALL DAY. it was a great day and i totally forgot how big pride was in SF. it was fun and ended up dancing with everyone on the *dance street*. i was able to catch the 1045pm redeye back home. got back around 7am --- i said i was going to stay and work ... but i haven't taken a shower in 2 days. that *not so fresh* feeling wasn't cute.

right now at dj mike lake's house. i just got back from a couple of days training in new york (yes, i do get around). we're going to check out the new club night in adams morgan - hush. hopefully it'll be cute.

I totally forgot that the BART didn't start running until 800. Erm-I didn't have anywhere to go for a couple of hours so I just lingered about at Mcdonalds and starbucks in the city. Needless to say, I wasn't able to make the 0900 flight back home. Oh darn!? Now I have no choice but to go to the pride events back downtown. Oh well. :-)

It's still kinda chilly - I say a breezy upper 60's. I forgot about the weather here. No wonder I hate DC weather so much. I hope this fog clears up.
Okay. Had a great night with dj paulo. Why am I in the Macdonald's on Fisherman's Warf and a man in a wetsuit and bare feet walks in wanting to use the bathroom. He was kindly denied.
We're about to land. I actually was able to sleep! Whoops. The flight attendant caught me with the phone on. Its not really on. Oh well.

ooh this might be interesting ... Blogging on the go. I just found out there's a *daily journal* function on my new palm treo phone!

anyway crazy series of events in my life...where do I start? first off...why am I jetting off to san francisco to go clubbing for dj paulo (for sf pride), arrive there around midnight, and then turn around and fly back home at 9? Let's stew on that for a bit...

i just hated the friendster BLOG application. it took too much effort to try to post stuff on there. anyway, i'm back here.

how can i fill in the blanks??? hmm -- well, i've been doing a whole lot of NOTHING ... all the time! hey -- what else is new? it's summer -- of what's supposed to be summer. why was it like in the mid 60's last night? i'm not complaining. it's just really weird to be this cold and wet this time of year here in dc. i'm just not used to it.

i've just been working a lot. it's summer travel season and we're going at it full force. with our current flight schedule -- we've got the bulk of our evening flights just coming in on top of each other with limited gate space. there's been a need to actually have an operations person work behind the scenes to make sure the planes come in and out relatively in order and in a place to on- and off-load people. meanwhile -- that person has been ME! the station is running about 11 people short and everyone is just being pulled every which way to make sure the operations runs smoothly. i was told last week that i was expected to be doing this as part of my regular day ... work in *OPS* (operations). erm -- about 1/3rd of my day get's yanked out of my regular schedule of general paper pushing doing this whole OPS thing. when i'm done doing that, my other duties still await. this particular week i've been pulling in 10-12 hour days just trying to catch up and such. i don't really know how long i can keep it up. i'm just exhausted by it all and it just starts all over the next day. at least i'm getting overtime. but still -- it's just not fun anymore. okay -- enough 0f me whining.

a few weeks ago, i made a pact with the roomies that i'd start running again and join the marathon training program. we'll see. it starts june 11. i think there are pics of me here a few years ago while i did it the first time around. hey -- i got my fat ass running up to 12 miles in a session before i had to stop because of lack of fundraising efforts. shit -- with all the KR*CKERS that i know -- i should be able to make the $3,500 minimum for the Honolulu Marathon in December. hmmm. 26+ miles. hmmm.

what else -- oh yeah, we don't have hot water in the house. we sorta forgot to pay the bill. oops.
