Me And Some Of The Boys...

...got together for some poker last night...that's me between Drac and Mummy...

Well maybe not...not a card player, but I've always liked that pic...

My week ended on a considerably less enjoyable note..got up at 4:30 am Thursday morning and finally lay me down to sleep at 11:30 pm Friday night, and too many of those 41 hours in between were spent riding shotgun on an IT catastrophe. I'd hoped by this time in my career I'd be done with the emergency all nighters but guess not.

At one point I commented to a vendor I'd roused from his pleasant dreams that I wondered if there was any way I could embrace a different reality than the one I was currently experiencing, but for that he offered no solutions.

Thankfully things are back together now, though cleanup from the fallout will no doubt stretch into the next week and possibly beyond. Big fun.

Bought a pair of rabbit ears for my 1959 GE Slimline TV the other day...

...really improved the reception...or at least enhanced the vintage TV look I adore.

So besides trying to catch up on some sleep this weekend, I'm once again engaged in the process of questioning why I live in this state...more lousy weather ahead, but at least it's not the major winter storm warning people north of here have...

Hello...it's mid-April folks...time for spring already...but a friend up north reports snowfall of 6 inches already with ice on the way...yikes...

They can have it...I guess cold, wind and rain here is acceptable compared to that...

What I'm fiending for is some of this...

Maybe next weekend...

they're calling to me...

Back to writing again...started on a short story, Last Flight...liking it so far but I'm only a third of the way into it...and even when I finish stories there are plenty of times I decide "crap! it's all crap!" and so delete them...we'll see where this one goes.

later, mcm fans...
