I don’t like loud holidays. I get nervous about all those explosions. There were random fireworks going off during the day today, too. At least they finished earlier last night than they do on New Year’s Eve! My baby girl…
Monday and R.I.P. George Carlin
I guess everybody has heard, by now, that we lost George Carlin last night. I’ve seen many articles about him today, but I think Susie Bright did the best job of catching his spirit. Today was a very Monday-ish Monday.…
Neptune On My Mind
Well, sorta. Katie and I indulged in a Veronica Mars marathon tonight, watching most of two DVDs of episodes. It was a good thing to keep me occupied while doing a very, very boring technical chore. She was doing some…
And That’s the Week
I consider Sunday the first day of the week rather than the last. It was a week full of appointments for the girl and getting paperwork shuffled to various bureaucracies. Sam and I had lovely dates Wednesday and tonight, although…
Sam and Saturday
Yes, it was another date night. Yay! (They are the highlights of my week, with good reason.) The girl went out on a date, so we had the house to ourselves. It still feels odd, at times, not to have…
Pain Doc Day
Today was the monthly visit to the pain doc, which requires trekking across town to Fascist County. It was somewhat amusing to see “Drought Threat Level 4 Measures in Effect!” right next to CVS watering their little patch of grass.…
Pirates!
Not the nice, Johnny Depp kind, no. The pillage/rape/murder sort spiced up with demon-worshipping shark people. Tonight was date night, and I was impatient to be back to our game. We’d left off at a very unresolved point the last…
Long Monday
I was so busy Monday, and so wiped out, that I actually scribbled this out on paper and just now (Thursday) got a chance to type it in. We had Hope until this morning, which was nice. But then she…
Fun Day
I have an SBQ to post, but it’ll have to wait. 🙂 I’m loving having Hope here for a visit. She’s great company, and certainly easy on the eyes. She’s been marvelously patient with my need to sleep so much…
Hump Day For You, Date Night For Us
It’s amazing how much a mid-week date can cheer you up! I do recommend regularly scheduled dates to anyone who has a significant other or others. Especially if you have kids! The girl went out, as usual. She surprised us…
