lame-o picnic...

just got back from PCL's company picnic. talk about a yawner. it seems that you gotta get drunk at every one of their functions to even have a good time anymore. the fun level is so underwhelming...

as usual, it was at Heritage Square, which is becoming more and more of a ghost town. more than half of the places are shuttered and the ones that are open are really sad shops that don't offer anything unique; you may as well head over to the card shop at the mall or one of the many Korean-owned souvenir shops downtown.

as we were leaving, we both came to the conclusion that they need to put the picnic in a different location - it is getting so long in the tooth. granted, it's very nice that they pay for activity wristbands that include the go karts, paddleboats, and even unlimited miniature golf, but that's the thing, once everyone gorges on the spread, they're gone. the limbo contest, tacky hawaiian shirt, and hula hoop contest just don't excite anyone. either they need to change locations and/or have better activities. the free beer and steaks just don't cut it for us anymore ;)
