Gooooooood mornin'! The coffee is extra zesty this morning, I might have used too many grounds in the old Geyser coffee maker.

Weather report- wind storm and steady gettin' colder.. a 'bit' of winter weather on tap for tomorrow, then a more significant winter event on Sunday/Monday. I'm going to start my own weather impact scale, based on 'limp wrists' because of the way that non-natives in this state behave in any slippery weather and the way that they buy into the panic instilled by the local media weather reports. The upcoming storm is being advertised as 'significant', 3-5" of snow. I'll give it 2 limp wrists if it even comes to fruition.

So many Tahoes/Suburbans, Excersions, CVR's, Pilots, Subie Outbacks, diesel-tard trailer park chariots around here and not enough tow trucks to pull them out of the ditches when an inch of snow hits the ground. I'm starting to sound like a curmudgeon... I need to go back to the desert and chill out.

 

Wife wanted "wine coolers" when we went to son's house for NYE, so I was DD. She had half of one, I guess that mango flavored shite wasn't worth the effort. I maintained my sober status by drinking almost a 2l bottle of diet coke, sans Jack. Figured with his status and all, Dick Clarke's Rockin would be my speed, but only made it to about 11:30 before napping a bit. Home by 12:30, had breakfast at 7:30, dinner at 5:30, rest of the time in my robe in bed watching TV.
Back to the work-grind today.

 

Been a few days since I had a chance to check in. Hope you're feeling lots better!

 

Happy Belated Miss Susan!

 

laughed so hard people walking by my desk are giving me MORE wierd looks!

 

Sort of, few people went out for drinks. Can’t really do much being a County / tax payer job . I surprised her with one on Monday after work with some friends, we had fun. Most of us have known each other since 75’ or longer . We have some stories.

 

Yep, she the dog gives me the look, hey let’s go buddy
