I’ve been up since 2 this morning. It's a gray day now and I feel it should be. Between the raging visions of zombies attacking me on the road and Adele’s strange sudden screams, I’m not alert enough to be starting this day. I don’t know what’s up with the girl.

Spent a lovely evening with K this week. We went to Outback - it was really a wonderful treat to relax one-on-one with her. We got there before happy hour ended so we indulged in a little “Happy” - me with Jose, her with Fat Tire (I believe). Then we each had a margarita…I actually craved one the next day I enjoyed that one so much. Every time I ( Read more... )
