Tonight there is going to be a small farewell party for one of my roomates, Mandy. She has lived here for the past month and a bit, and it has been a good time. She is a good roomate and a great friend and Ben and I will miss having her around, but in the latest trend of people wanting to move on with their lives, she will be embarking on a journey back to her home of Ohio. After that is hopefully the windy city for a great job, and bright future in sales, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…j/k…she is in PR. Anyway, best of luck to you Mandy.

In other news…USC’s Gamecocks will be in Knoxville, Tennessee today for a showdown with Superdrag…I mean the Volunteers of UT. GO COCKS!!! BTW vote for Cocky.

I read a great story today and thought I would share it. I hope you enjoy.

– SAN CARLOS, Calif. (AP) – Call it Ted’s excellent adventure, with a high-tech twist: A cat with an ID microchip implanted under his skin was returned to his owner 10 years after he jumped out a window and vanished. Chris Inglis’ sleek, black feline, Ted, was fitted with the chip back when the technology was still new in the early 1990s. But he was gone without a trace for a full decade before someone found him this week. Ted – named for Keanu Reeves’ character in “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure” – was brought to the Peninsula Humane Society’s animal shelter, which tracked down Inglis despite outdated information on the chip. The cat was found about 13 miles south of where Inglis used to live in Burlingame.

When the pair reunited Wednesday, the cat “rubbed his face on my hand, climbed right up and started purring,” Inglis said. “It’s pretty monumental. It’s almost surreal.” Where Ted spent all those years remains a mystery, but it appeared someone had been taking care of him. Inglis remembers that one of the things he and Ted liked to do was cruise around in his car. On their way home from the shelter, Inglis said Ted “put his front paws on the dashboard,” just like in the old days.

I love my cats. Oh yeah and I uploaded those pics from the trip to Southport earlier in the year.

I am looking for jobs today among other errands. I really need a job. Rent is coming up, and all of that. Argghhhh… Anyway, I am on a new server now, so I will be able to upload some pictures and schtuff real soonlike. Later.

Played the last of three nights in a row with Feable Weiner and Sunday Driver. I think the show went well. I am feeling sick today, and am in and out of losing my voice. Sorry it’s been a really long time since the last update. There is stuff in the August archive that is new from my trip to see radiohead with Mandy.
