This past Saturday was what I have dubbed a "mini-reunion" of sorts. Please note that as I say and type "mini-reunion" I make the quote mark gesture in the air with my index fingers to accentuate the term, not unlike Dr Evil from the Austin Powers flicks. A former co-worker and his wife were visiting California to attend the Coachella Music Festival, which is just down the road a piece from Palm Springs. A small group of friends made the drive out to join them as well, and we met for lunch on Saturday. With spouses/other halfs, we were a group of eight for lunch, but I managed to get a photo of the four of us who worked together on the same team for a few years. The photo above, here we are, from left to right with names and nick-names too: Shannon, "The Hawaiian Woman/Feather Queen", Todd "Toddington", Ben "BenWu", and me "Palm Springs Savant". I am lucky to have worked with them, they made work interesting and fun.
above left: The group of eight, pausing for photos at La Casita Mexican restaurant, and above right: My friend Ben and his lovely wife Natalie. She's smokin' hot. If she were a president, she'd be "Babe-raham Lincoln".
Anyway it was a nice "mini-reunion" for us. The rest of the gang went onto Coachella- way too crowded and noisy for but those crazy kids will be kids I suppose. Happy Monday to you...
