This could be the big one!


Current mood: mellow
I'm back in Louisville. I'm fu of BBQ an coke. I thought about having a beer, but I'm just too stuffed to really manage that.

It was a good weekend, though too quick. Was off to a birthday party friday night for Charity's sister's co-worker who turned 40. I have no idea who he was, and I think some one pointed him out to me, but we took the opportunity to have fun. We got our dance on and our drink on. I realized walking into Sutra Nightclub I had been there before, only it;s been 6 years. Chandra found it and we went in and had a good time, but I think the 3 of us made up the majority of the clientale in the bar.

I was also struck by an odd thought while chilling in the "Ultra Lounge", as their called these days. There was a time when we went out to these places and stood in the lines to pay the then ridiculous covers. And we went in, and every table was reserved or in the VIP area. I kept thinking who ae these snobs who walk to the front of the lines, don't pay cover, and have these special rooms and tables set up for them.

Well, Friday night we walked right in, didn't pay a cover because we were "on the list," and were hanging out int he VIP room. It seems the last few times I've been out to one of these clubs, it's beena simlar experience. Apparently, I'm a snob now! I don't know how it happened, I guess I just know people who know people who know people that can roll that way. It's fun, and I do think that we should do it again sometime. Maybe a nice outing were we all get dressed up, a nice dinner, and an evening of clubbing. Kind of like a prom night for adults, except not as formal, we can legally buy alcohol, and (since most my friends are in some sort of relationship) most of us wil probably score.

Anyway, I found that little observation amusing, how things have changed. I also have been observing that I'm not the guy who can party hard all weekend and bounce back with no trouble. I think I'll see a test of my endurance this weekend. Wish me, and my liver, luck.

This week marks the beginning of my official OJT. I'm back to the place where I know nothing about airplanes or how the fly. It's time to attempt to be a sponge and learn things. Even though I may no the, already. I was tol the other day I was too smart to be a Manual Revision Specialist. Whatever, its low stress if boring. And I'm not the only person I know who's smarter than their jobs.

Finally, thanks to jersey for providing my housing for the weekend, and driver. Thanks to Grace for the rides, the outing, and sue of "our" car. And Darci for driving back up to el airport.

And if the trend continues, this will be th blog that puts be over 10,000 views. Who are you people that are reading?
