Greg's J-O-B

Greg's job is going great! He supervises 30 people that pick orders of parts that need to go to dealers, shops and people that need to fix their machines. He's learning and catching on to everything and will be running the joint in no time. :)

I am still the copy queen. It's alright, something to do for now still. I will find something more glamourous! I don't know what, but we'll see what's out there.

Here are some pictures...

We were walking down by River Street and here are some ships being loaded for shipping. You can see the little boat on the right and realize how ginormous the ships are and the bridge!

Here's a closer look at the boats.


And here I am at Taylor Street...Taylor saw this pic and thought it was neat.

Crap, gotta get cruising to work!

Porter's Hot

Porter and I just got done with our walk...he's hot and laying on the wood floor to cool down. And don't forget drooling. Teehee!

The local paper has a fun little public soundoff area called Vox Populi. You have to know what's going on in the area to figure out some of the things tho. The Club Ice thing...a couple soldiers left the club and got shot by some dumba**. The firefighter thing? People are b*tching about the firefighters driving the engine to get lunch. Um, hey, what if you're cooking some fried chicken and the grease starts on fire...do you want the firemen to drop their sangwich and be able to jump in the engine or drop their sandwich, get in the car, drive back to the station, get their gear on, start the engine and then come to your grease fire? Everybody's got to eat!

What if this was your mom...Connie Chung sang a sign-off this weekend...how embarrassing. Click on today videos, Connie's singing sign-off. Oh good lord.

Last night we had supper with the neighbors! They're so nice. We decided it was time to bust open a bottle of champagne we received as a wedding gift from my sister. So here we are out on the back porch, enjoying the bubbly. It was quite delicious!

And here's Porter enjoying his share. Just kidding...it's water, we just got back from a walk and he was thirsty!

Let's see, what else is going on...oh YEAH! Greg got a job! :) He's going to be a Team Leader in the Parts Dept. at JCB. He starts monday 10:30-7:30...kind-of weird hours if you ask me...which means I'm going to have to walk home from work. But at least I have that option of walking home! We can put off getting a 2nd vehicle for a few months yet which will be nice. Save the environment right...and gas money! I said I should get a little scooter (59mph? hot dog!), but Greg thinks people drive too nutty around here. Hrumph. Anyways...got off the subject eh? We're happy and Greg's excited, but sad his "vacation" is coming to an end. Teehee! He should be able to still come home in July unless they're real sticklers...they've needed this position filled for awhile, so we'll see what happens.

I think I covered it all now! There'll be more to chat about when Greg starts working I'm sure.

Have a good rest of the week ya'll!

My 18 Cents

I didn't know what to title this one, as it's going to be hodge podges of info, maybe even 18 cents worth!

Alberto came and went. I watched the rain out the windows at work. There were crazy tourists even riding around doing tours! Silly tourists.

I got a raise at work! I found out that I'll be downtown through the summer. Laura's last day was today so I'm on my own now! I'm supposed to be getting more responsibilities too...I'm not sure what, but nothing like supervising a crew of 10 or anything. Ha! Greg is having good luck right now too. He's in the interview process at JCB. We'll probably find out next week how that goes. Keep your fingers crossed!

Not much else has been going on. I thought I saw K-Fed at the park jogging one night, but then I think I saw the same guy tonight, and it so wasn't him. I need to get my celebrity vision checked! Tomorrow is saturday, so it'll be wedding day at the park! Always something to see! Unless people are getting smart to the hot weather? Hahaa! Ohh, the fireworks are going off at the Sand Gnats stadium! Can't wait until the 4th of July to actually see some. The team isn't that great, but I hear Thirsty Thursday is the place to be!

Okay, this did not add up to 18 cents! Sorry for the lameness!

IMDB was WRONG!

OMG, I can't believe it...my bible was wrong. Crap! Of course they don't say where, but numerous people told Greg they were all here. Dag-gummit. I could've done a better job stalking! Teehee!

Not much else going on. It's hot again. Last week was bearable, but today was yucky. It's still high 80's at 9:30. This morning I broke a sweat watering a couple plants!

We ate at Jalepeno's for the first time finally. I keep hearing it's the bomb for Mexican Food around here. It was good!

My trainer girl is leaving me. She found a new job, accidently of course...so now they don't know what to do with me. So I just asked for more money for now. :) I guess we'll see what happens in the next couple weeks. But I know I need more responsibility or something, my brain is turning to mush as I lean on the front counter watching the tourists go by!

Adios ya'll!

The Rumor

Last night was sweet! Here are a couple photos...
12x zoom...














where I actually was...















They put on a good show, I think...the music was good, couldn't tell what they were doing up there! I listened while Porter got more attention then the band! He was Mr. Popular last night, whooweee! Nobody talked to me, but they talked to him "You sure are pretty...you sure are handsome...what's your name..." goodness gracious! Our own little celebrity!

Speaking of celebrity and a city oozing of it, the rumor is...Casey Affleck is in town getting married to Joaquin's sister and they're all staying up at the Mansion. That means Ben, Jen and baby Violet are all here, just a mere 3 blocks away from us and I have NO WAY besides stalking, to catch a glimpse. Porter and I just went for a walk and I saw one wedding and one bridal party in the park, but heck if there was anyone famous there. OH wait a minute...Greg's been canoodled...they're already married with one kid!!! Well, then who the heck is here? I think Greg needs to find a new informant. hah! Bad rumor mill, bad!

Ugh, alright, I guess I'll go find something else to be excited about. Tata!

Welcome Hurrican Season!

It's that time of year everyone, Hurricane Season! Rumors are that something BIG is supposed to happen again, but we'll see. Don't worry, we'll be ready...I think.

In other big news, SCAD kids are finally DONE! Yay! That means work won't be as busy and rowdiness will begin even more. If you look closely at that commencent page you'll see what I'm doing tonight...walking my happy feet two blocks down to the park and watching The Blues Traveler! For free! I'm so excited! Last year they had James Brown (even better) and the year before they had George Clinton and the Parliment Funkadelic. Vera Wang is somewhere around town too I think, or she just was...the goddess of wedding gowns. Man, who'd-a thunk this town is that oozing of celebrity.

Okay, I have to finish getting ready for work! Have a good weekend ya'll!!!
