Saturday Morning One-Liner

The alarm on my phone went off inadvertently, and as a result, Bandit thought that meant it was time for us to wake up. So he crawled out from under the bed, hopped up on the covers, and snuggled down between me and Marc.

I said to Marc, "This must be what it's like when a child climbs into bed with you every morning."

Marc's response: "Yeah, but a child doesn't lick his balls and then your face."

Other Stuff

Just read this article about how the Raiders were/are interested in moving the team to Dublin. Thankfully, our mayor said no. I can't even imagine what it would be like if they moved the team to Dublin. I don't think I could leave town fast enough. And that's not because I have some deep rooted hatred of the Raiders or anything. I'd feel the same way about any team coming in.

I guess the land they were interested in was the Camp Parks land. Now, the A's moving to Fremont is a crappy idea too, but at least that land is more in the middle of industrial nowhere. Camp Parks is surrounded by homes and neighborhoods. Hell, in our old house, I could look out one of the back windows right into Camp Parks. I can't begin to imagine how a huge stadium would change the complexion of the city.

So thanks, but big no thanks.

Not much going on at work today. I probably could have called in sick, heh.

Yesterday I had another LASIK consultation in the morning. I ended up making an appointment (which I think I may need to reschedule), since this office is in San Ramon and it's easier than the other place, which is in Mountain View.

This place was quite a bit more expensive though, and thank goodness I put down that I had heard their ad on the radio, because there was a $600 referral discount for that! And it was still more expensive than the other place!

While I was in the waiting room, there was this couple that was there, and the woman was presumably there for a follow-up appointment. Anyways, she had this really weird affect about her. I don't even know how to describe it, other than that she just acted strange. Like sat there with her head cocked the whole time, acting very mousy and just odd. The guy with her seemed perfectly normal.

So she goes up to the counter to make another follow-up appointment, and the receptionist asks her when she would like it. The woman says, "Whenever the earliest one you have is."

The receptionist says, "Okay, I have a 9:30 appointment available."

The woman then asks, "Ummm...do you have anything...earlier?"

Seriously, maybe she thought the receptionist misunderstood her when she asked for the "earliest" available?

Then the couple left - and while the guy walked to the door normally, the woman literally shuffled out. It was really strange.
