Rainy Tuesday - Random Stuff

It's raining outside today. We've been blessed with several days of complete and HOT sunshine but finally, some rain. Normally rainy days make me happy but today, I'm just downright grumpy.

I stayed home from work yesterday because I didn't sleep very well the night before and I was pretty much just lazy. I was tired and didn't really feel like getting up. I should have picked today! Today would have been fantastic, laying in bed watching the rain fall. Ahh..

I'm playing catch up at work today and thankfully it's not too terribly bad. Sometimes when I miss a day or two it's like I'm playing catch up for a week before things are running smooth again.

I'm sad for Katrina victims, families & animals. It's not one person's fault that this happened, you can't control Mother Nature. I'm tired of the Liberals being blamed for blaming Bush and I'm tired of the Bush backers blaming the Liberals. It's a two way street and as long as we are in America, blame will probably be pushed all over the place. Interesting how Bush took responsibility for the failures of the U.S. Federal Government. In his words: "Katrina exposed serious problems in our response capability at all levels of government and to the extent the federal government didn't fully do its job right, I take responsibility," I'm just tired of it, let us all work together and help the people instead of pushing blame. LOL Can't we all just get along?

The Dave Matthews Band concert was fantastic. The setlist wasn't as great as last years show but being five rows back didn't hurt anything. It was so amazing. My friend Shayna was contacted by The Warehouse on the Friday before the show and was granted passes into the Meet & Greet. Shayna and her husband John actually met through a Dave Matthews Band e-mail list and met in San Francisco for the first time. So anyway, they went back stage and they were allowed in two items to be signed so Brynn and I worked on a graphic and Shayna was able to take it in to be signed. Well she was telling Dave the story of how they (John & Shayna) met and so as he was signing my poster, he wrote "Jessica, "a peace sign" & congratulations, Dave Matthews." He put congrats on mine when it should have been on hers. Lay off the pot Dave. teehee.
