It’s that time of year again – I’m singing at the Easter Vigil tonight at St Nicholas, and we’re doing the Hallelujah Chorus tonight and tomorrow. Much like in 2007, in fact, but we’re much more experienced now, and the freshening we’ve felt with Father Manny beginning his tenure has been a LOT of fun! I’m also the web and social media boffin for St Nick’s so I do the website, Twitter, Facebook, and whatever else that’s internet-y. So I’m always interested to know how people find St Nick’s. I’m also on the Welcome Committee, just so that all makes…

This Electra Bicycle "Hawaii" model would have made me pretty happy as a little girl, but I would have outgrown it too fast and that would have made me sad to graduate to my clunky old blue Schwinn.

Well, if it was a loser, what took them so long? I don’t know how this will affect my team’s account, but it’s possible there will be changes for them. I rarely book anybody to/from Oakland now, but used to when my main account was a large retail outfit. I expect Southwest and their low fares are a big reason for United’s losses. United Airlines will shut down its operation at Oakland International in June. The airline connects Oakland to its Denver hub, but those flights will operate for the last time June 3.

Ho, well, I never post anymore, blah de blah. We had a wonderful time in Hawaii, pictures are all still on my laptop and need to be culled and copied to my desktop machine. However, I found a few on the card that was in my camera this morning when I took a picture of Father Manny in his purple Lenten poncho (okay, church purists, it’s a chausuble). Here’s one of his photo-op pictures, which will shortly be uploaded to the St Nicholas Facebook page and used on the website for the rest of Lent. I enjoy “Faddah” Manny’s sermons…

I’d better start posting interesting comment soon, or the only commenters will all be saying variations of “this sight very intersting plz post visit my sight link” and pointing to an obvious spam blog or ad farm.

We’re early, so not a lot of people here yet. We dont usually sit in this section but our tickets for last week’s show had to be changed due to travel, jet lag, and family stuff. Looking forward to how they translate from movie to stage, especially given the audience surround… and the dog.

It’s billed as Maui’s newest boat, too. But it’s the only one that goes all the way around, there are sea caves, and spinner dolphins.
