Out and about in the Grove

Met up with some friends at Greenstreet this morning for brunch. I love the breakfast dishes at this place. Im always good for the scrambled eggs w/ cheese, side of bacon (of course), homefries, and wheat toast. I love their raspberry iced tea too. THe homefries today were some kind of awesome. I got lots of little crispy grilled onion bits mixed in with the potatoes which made me wanna high five someone so I did. Miami Heat guard Chris Quinn showed up with his wife to eat. As I passed Le Petit Paris on my way home I saw Philadelphia '76ers coach Maurice Cheeks having lunch with his wife. I met Maurice at George's in the Grove one time so I said hi and was surprised that he remembered meeting me. Nice guy. Owns a flat at the Lofts at Mayfair I believe. Big fan of the Grove. The Heat played Philly last night in Philly so I guess they took a flight out after the game.

Lots of sportscars and a few custom choppers out on the streets today too. The sun has been peaking out but its cloudy overall. We've had a lot of these days lately where it looks like it might rain then doesnt. I kinda wish it would just to get it over with already. Gotta love the jeans and t-shirt weather though.

I need a remedy for what is ailin' me

After a stressful day and considering the current economic climate, this song pretty much sums it up for me. These guys kick major ass unplugged and live. Enjoy.

Model Shoots: Another reason I love my job

I work for a company who provides products to a female dominated industry. As a result, when we have new products coming out we need to have new packaging. And what do you need for a package to look attractive? Well, first you need a designer and marketing team that know what the hell theyre doing. Second though, you need a model. So, new products, catalog updates, and packaging updates are always a great time to be in the office because we have a good couple weeks of models parading through the office.

Today we had a tall, beautiful, redhead named Jaime throw her hat into the ring of candidates. From first glance, she was a winner. As soon as she walked by, as with usual model parades, I stick my head out the door to catch the eye of the owner of my company. We have totally different tastes. He likes girls that are a little thicker while I prefer girls that are more petite and thin. Today, we were on the same page. This one was a gem and thankfully she knew what the hell she was doing and didnt have a bad attitude so we're gonna move forward with her.

In a way though, this kinda sucks. The model parades will be over for now. :(
