Since I don't do this normally...

I suppose I can do it when I am being abnormal.

Greetings from Waukesha, Wisconsin (Home of Les Paul)!
I am spending the weekend hanging out with the old friends (the ones to whom I owe my real independence).  It seems like not much has changed here.  Joan still has a ton of cats, newly though, one ferret.  Nikkii has a kid (named Joseph) and dog and cats and wow.  It seems like yesterday that Joan and I moved here after a visit for Nikkii's graduation.  That was five years ago!  I really did like it here, I might still.  It is weird to be back.  Gas is not cheap here either.  I should have stopped in Menominee where it was only...  ONLY...  $3.089 per gallon.

The trip down was uneventful and I made good time but they rearranged some roads on me since I was here last time. Okay, in truth, only one road was different, I just missed a turn in one spot.  Thankfully I can still get around Waukesha without a problem.  They moved HWY 164 North of Waukesha from one road to another about a mile away.  I realized this when it no longer looked like things had gotten built up and changed the way it looked (really when I crested the hill into Pewaukee (which wouldn't normally have happened at all).  Fuckin' Wisconsinites don't ever get to be in the Normal Time Zone. That and when I sleep in to 10:00 it is still Nine here and this is a late night group.

Note to jhusan: I will not give you any shit about being old if you don't give me any shit about now being a quarter of a century old or having lived one-third of my life.

It just occurs to me that I shouldn't have said that... Oh well.
