Seven more hours and not only is the workweek toast, but I am also taking a three-day weekend, in honor of National Black Peoples' Day Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. And, starting next week, we also start 9/80 weeks, which will give us a day off - a Friday off, at that - every other week. Win-Win ( Read more... )

Thursday - 15 January 2009Last night, we had SaraRules' parents over for dinner. On the menu: Jambalaya. It was a nice change of pace to have them over rather than us going to their place. At one point, her father commented about it being weird, because he remembered being on the other side of the equation, years ago, and the first time that they ( Read more... )

It's 9:30. I've been up for roughly an hour already. So much for the grand designs of sleeping in...

There well be blood football. Today, I have what I refer to as a "push" game: The Ravens are playing the Dolphins, so no matter which team wins, I'll be happy. (Of course, I'd prefer the Ravens to win, but that's just me.) ( Read more... )

Last night, I got home to find that my Giants set of ‘Clix had arrived. As I had some errands to run, I took the package, unopened, with me. I’ll come back to that one in a minute.

One of the evening’s errands was to take my guitar to Acoustic Music. ( Read more... )

It’s… a little after 8:00 AM EDT. I’ve been up since about 6:30. (This is a vacation, isn’t it?!) I’ve been hanging out with Mom - having coffee, watching news, watching her start cooking dinner - since waking up. I’m sure that having been up since O’ ( Read more... )

Wednesday: Coda
Lunch with the guys was good… even if our server wasn’t so hot. In the forty or so minutes that we were there, I think he hit our table twice - possibly three times - after bringing our drinks. “Unlimited soup, salad and breadsticks?” Not so much today. I had ( Read more... )

Today is the first day of Spring.
(Oddly enough, the weather here seems spring-like. Go figure.)

After dinner last night, SaraRules and I walked down to the Red Mango and had cups of yogurt for dessert. It was not, however, the frozen ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is International Pi Day.
It is also Albert Einstein’s birthday.

Last night, after work, I stopped at Dr. Volt’s for my weekly fix. I also treated myself to a box of ‘Clix from the Justice League set. I picked up a couple of boxes ( Read more... )

When I got home from work yesterday, SageWater was done. Completely. Down to the repainting. If I hadn’t seen the holes in the walls and ceiling, I wouldn’t even know that work had been done.

Clitorati was very small last night. Intimate, even. But ( Read more... )
