End of the Week

I've been absent a lot this week from LJ and other things due to a work conference and hanging out after work with other attendees. It was a good conference, but it has worn me out... Here are some highlights:
  • Plastic colorful hair barrettes in the shape of little bows on 50+ year old women should be outlawed. It makes them look like they are trying out for a remake of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
  • I'm playing in the local gay softball league for the Titans. Games are on Monday nights, starting May 1st. I need to find my glove.
  • I'm teaching two weeklong computer classes in DC in July and August.
  • My presentation in the conference on foreign travel was well-received, garnering more than a few laughs. I love it when everything falls into place like that.
  • No low carb this week -- bagels, fries, and donuts, Oh My! I feel so fat... yet happy.
  • Why does diversity training always make me feel guilty? It was good training, but felt condescending in some way. The one presenter was a cute cubby sort, so the eye candy was good.

So what position are you playing? Pichter? Catcher? (you know somebody was gonna ask that one *g*)

Congrats on the presentation. Doesn't surprise me that it went over well....you're neat like that. :)

LOL! Pitcher or Catcher? I'm not sure yet. I don't think I want to play infield as there is too much of a chance that I'd take balls to the face, and not in a good way (thank you, I'll be here all week..) :D

I heard you might already know the answer to that... DISH!

Now now.. you've read my profile on 411... :)

Bear411 profiles are NOT always accurate. LOL.

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 12:33 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL.. well, I can say for certainty that mine is accurate. Or maybe I'm secretly a 70 year old woman in Idaho and the pics I've posted belong to my adorable grandson :D

I don't know whether to scoff and say you're sweet or make lip smacking sounds.

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm... both sound great to me.. decisions.. decisions...

[identity profile] mat-t.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I can with total honesty say that I have no first hand knowledge of that. *g*

Oh, wow. Where'd those extra letters come from?

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL! I don't like to brag... :D

[identity profile] mat-t.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Woohoo! Maybe I need to plan another midwest trip... *weg*

Well, you know what they say about the size of a man's glove...

[identity profile] dendren.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 02:31 pm (UTC)(link)
forget the size of the glove, why would there be gloves in the first place? Will there be fisting???

oh wait, that's right it's softball... nevermind

:)

Well, when the game already comes with it's own large phallic instruments, why get your hands dirty?

[identity profile] dendren.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
well... how could you go wrong with a game that involves long phallic instruments, balls, gloves and guys who spit. Not to mention the whole pitcher catcher thing. Who knew "America's Fave Game" is so gay gay gay :)

I have to admit, when I signed up for the team, I wondered if we'd have a team with drag queens on it. So far, most of the guys look pretty athlethic and no feather boas in sight.

[identity profile] dendren.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
nah... the nelly queens rarely do the softball league type of thing. Generally from what I've seen the guys on the teams are just regular every day guys... often hot as hell, but no feather boas to be seen (at least while they are in front of others ;)

The guys I've seen on the website pictures look pretty athletic to me. My team has a good winning record, so I'm eager to see how well I fit in with the team.

What are you teaching for 2 weeks?

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 12:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Computer Aided Inspections -- basically how to use different Microsoft Office applications to review, sort, and extract specific information from supplied caches of data.

I don't care what they tell me in diversity training. I will still look people in the eye and smile when I speak to them.

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2006-04-28 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly! I think sometimes it goes a bit overboard. It was good training, I guess.
