02: $750 brunch - Kim's friend Ed takes us to the fanciest restaurant in all of New Orleans.

05: Cinco de Mayo - Lame in all respects.
06: reluctant entertainers - Lame in all respects.

14: San Diego sausage party - Partying with the workplace class-clown.
15: yet another Kafkaesque Fry's Electronics experience - A slip-up on their part and we're sent to wait in the return line. Fuck that, we say.

17: not so bad - My workplace funk seems to be on the repair.

31: lame Memorial Day - On the cultural first day of Summer, all I want to do is install some Linux.
