We saw the ambulance and paramedics on Thursday, but the ambulance left so fast we figured they’d just dismissed it. Found out today from Jeff’s wife today that he apparently woke up, and fell right back [...]

Category: work life | Leave a Comment
You have to throw birthday parties for them; and rich people throw them for 1 yr olds. How completely ridiculous is that?! What a lame attempt to get gifts.

Catering wasn’t bad

Good crew, except for the smooshy, water saturated grass and the excess peeps. We were supposed to have 250 ish and ended up having around 400-450! SO happy I didn’t bartend! We had 2 bars with frozen margarita machines on each (what no large mixer?), plus beer and wine. Of course EVERYone wanted margaritas. On [...]
