Grill Master
Due to a fortuitous series of events yesterday, I became the grill master at the Tacocestis 4th of July holiday hoedown and bbq. It was actually a lot of fun and reminded that during the 17 or so years I lived with my parents that I did actually pick up some useful, everyday skills ( Read more... ) -
Day's half over ...
When this wild and crazy (not) weekend started up, tacologic had asked if I wanted to go to a soccer bar this morning and watch the race to not get relegated at a bar down in the Village this morning. Sure, I thought ... why not ( Read more... ) -
Administering the hand of justice ...

I keep getting older ...
It has come to my attention that my sister is putting an offer down on a house today somewhere in the greater Durham area.

Teh brain, eet moves ...
I've had trouble falling asleep the last two nights. I chalk Monday night to being a long weekend and, frankly, I always have trouble falling asleep on Sunday nights.
