Last Day of June

Friday, June 30th, 2006

Bye-bye, June. We’ll miss you. Sure, you were full of rain, but there were some sunny days here and there. Yes, I had to work during most of them, but them’s the breaks (as they say). Hey, have you ever thought about saving the sunny days for the weekends? Just an idea. Are you familiar [...]

Mini-Vacation

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

Ahhh, I’m enjoying yesterday and today off. There’s nothing like a random four-day weekend to relax you. We didn’t have anything to do, except tidy up the house a bit, and anywhere to go. We won’t be all worn out when Wednesday arrive and we have to go back to work. And then, there will [...]

Gravyboy, Driving, and Getting Things Done

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

Issue 3 of GravyBoy is available for purchase today! Woohoo! Order yours now! I don’t see a link for buying it, so that will just wisp you to their site where you can hound them until they sell you a copy or three. Be diligent; it’s worth it! (Yes, Mark and Scoob, I’ll get yours, [...]

Let the guy have a haircut, for all that is good and honorable in this world!

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

Man, I need a haircut. No, seriously, it’s getting out of control. I think I have quite a start on an afro over here. Soon Ethiopians will be mistaking my overgrowth as the bush, and I will have to beat them away with a broom to keep them from using my head as a toilet. [...]

Here are some pictures from the last trip, as promised: How should you begin a relaxing day at the coast? Homework! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Some nice views of Otter Cliffs . . . . . [...]

I’m…Not Quite Dead

Thursday, June 15th, 2006

Two weeks of being sick. That’s quite enough of that. I pronounce myself better. Nevermind that I’m still on antibiotic for the stuff growing in my sinuses. Nevermind that I’m on ibuprofen for the major sinus headache. I’m better. I get to mow the lawn tonight (if it doesn’t rain), go grocery shopping, and wash [...]

Superman?

Saturday, June 10th, 2006

I’ve been sick all week. Nasty sinus infection. After working all week, I get to go in today and work 12 hours all by myself in a position that is normally staffed by two people. Tomorrow it’s 8 hours by myself. Then I get to work a normal week starting Monday, too. My infection has [...]

House Husband

Monday, June 5th, 2006

I think I should very much like to be a house husband. I could tinker around the house all day, cleaning up here and there, performing small maintenence tasks, shopping, and making sure that supper was ready when my wife came home. I could do that. I could eat my pride at being the man [...]
