I was certainly not expecting it, but sure as shit, they were playing &#8220;Bad Dog, No Biscuit&#8221; off of the Cowboy Bebop Soundtrack.<\/p>\n<p>Japanese anime Bebop Jazz in an Irish bar. Who&#8217;da thunk it?<\/p>\n<p>Planning for the tourney season has gone a bit wonky this year, as the Chef has decided to depart for greener pastures, and half the kitchen gear goes with him. Tolerant found us a deal on a new 8&#8242; pop-up, but it&#8217;s from an on-line retailer who says they had one blue, one green and several orange units for sale. I asked for blue, but we&#8217;re taking bets on the end result &#8211; odds are leaning toward orange.<\/p>\n<p>Work has been crazy the past couple of weeks &#8211; and it certainly hasn&#8217;t helped that I&#8217;ve been dealing with La Grenouille out at the winery for a good chunk of it. Damn little prick won&#8217;t drop an argument that he lost a week ago. I wrote him the polite rebuttal earlier (instead of telling him to fuck off and drop it already) and let his reply to that sit in my inbox for a couple of hours before curiosity got the better of me. What did the little frog say? &#8220;OK, thanks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it? Fucker.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of other things work-related, construction continues on the new offices, and they finally got the sheet rock up in my new office &#8211; which is half the size of my current office. The downgrade is a bummer because I lose my personal lab space &#8211; I had a spare desk in the back of my office I would use for extra workspace when I needed it. Oh well. Bossman has mentioned before that if we ever got enough business concentrated between downtown and the East Side, it would be worth maybe opening a second office. Now I just have to get the sales guy out of the Winery-and-Country-Club circuit and onto the Lawyer-and-Commercial-House circuit.<\/p>\n<p>Forget it. I hate lawyers too much, and I&#8217;ve heard bad things about them.<\/p>\n<p>Time for bed, more next time &#8211; probably next month, at this rate. :)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hmmm&#8230; let&#8217;s see what the old dog has been up to&#8230; Went to Katie O&#8217;Brien&#8217;s for breakfast with Tolerant and the Snake Boy, and I found myself tapping my fingers <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/2009\/06\/22\/catching-up-2\/\">Continue Reading &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-789","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=789"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":792,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/789\/revisions\/792"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=789"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=789"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thecyberwolfe.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=789"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
