I remember searching for the perfect words

A few weeks ago I was longing for a slow Saturday where I didn't have a big project to get done or tons of people coming in and yelling at me about their statements. Today is my slow day and I really wish I had a project. Nothing major, just something to pass the time. I did bring my knitting and I might have to break it out if things continue at this slug-like rate. Unfortunately both of my bosses are here today and they would frown upon it.

A busy week is almost over and next week looks to be busy as well. I went to a wine tasting at Cork last night and tasted some very interesting California wines. They are shifting their focus from European wines to California wines this year. Some people squawked but who the hell cares. They didn't bring out the usual heavy-hitting CA wines but chose to go with smaller, more sustainable vineyards. I'm all for it!

Tonight is our company holiday dinner. They chose a restaurant in Vancouver and all of us Clark County types cheered. It'll be nice to only have to drive 10 minutes. But a free meal is a free meal so I'll show up anywhere.

In other mundane news, we have to bring Grendel to the vet on Monday and that's always a lot of fun. He's inconvenienced for a total of 45 minutes (including the rides in the car) and he acts like we're peeling off his skin. Dumb cat. I'm attending a city meeting next week so I can learn to be better neighborhood leader. Maybe they'll give me tiara-polishing tips.

So, this concludes my boring blog entry. I wish I had something scandalous to report or a rant worthy of the NYT Editorial Page but I don't. I think I'll try and stealth knit.
