she looks a little bit different now maybe a little softer around her eyes

I feel like I’ve been crazy busy.  Just completed two full months and the new job and feel like there’s even more work to be done.  I’ve spent some time in houston and some time in austin.  I don’t think there is anything good about houston. 

 I feel tired lately.  I think it all started when I attempted to jam a week and a half with as much stuff as possible.  It started when I spent a wednesday - friday down at the houston office (which is way boring at night) then I drove out to austin for a meeting on sunday that finalized last minute details of the austin dog fair. Since I hadn’t been home all week I figured I had better head to dallas sunday night and monday to make sure my house was still standing. (which it was) Then tuesday morning I headed back down to Austin to hang around the work crew that was at the Pubcon event that was going on.  I hung out some with good ‘ol MD (who made me go to this awful internet marketing event with a bunch of lame folks), but mostly spent the time working at thunderbird coffee - which is a great little hangout.  THEN, on friday I drove back to dallas to meet up with a bunch of old work friends - laura, john, jen and corey - then we all hopped in a car and drove to the great casino land of the north (which took forever because of some wreck on I-35) this trip included the blind set-up with laura’s friend.  Which was well - neither really great or bad at all - and I bet it would go better with a do-over.  For her part, I can say it probably wasn’t her fault she was very attractive and seemed like a nice person.  I think we can however lay to rest the fact that I suck at blind dates - I have a terrible time talking to people I don’t know especially when it seems like there is the built in pressure that they are there to specifically meet you.  Overall, the main take away was - I stuck some money in a slot machine and left feeling like I had smoked a carton of someone else’s cigarettes. THEN after getting back into dallas around 3:30 am or so I slept it off - then woke up got in my car and drove down to Austin for dog fair weekend.  I got to spend some time getting to know people in the group a little better and hanging out with some SFA college kids down to help out with the dog fair on their spring break.  The dog fair itself went better than anyone could have ever thought - I would guess that over 400 people showed up and had a great time.  I suppose we’ll have to do it again sometime. Then after that was over on sunday - I drove back to dallas.

 I just feel tired from writing all that and I’m not really sure how to conclude this post, so… 

the end.
