I should be editing a photo right now.....

And I surely would be, if I hadn't forgotten my card reader at J's house.

See, he needed a product shot for a web page, and wanted me to shoot it for him, and put it on his puter. This was done once, and when it became evident that what he wanted to do could not be done with the software he had, I told him I'd fix it and send it to him.

He brought me home, at which point, I discovered that I'd left the card reader behind.

I of course, blame him.

Had he just come over with the jar and let me take pix here, I could have downloaded and edited them without ever removing said card reader from my computer, and thus the chances of me forgetting it somewhere would have been nil.

Needless to say, he'll be stopping by in a bit with the reader.....

Which brings me to my second point:

I have pictures.

I shot a ton of photos while I was L's house, and I'll be sharing them (but not all of them not yet) with you tonight.

What follows is a random sample of the visit.

Here's a pic of the room finished:




And, if you're really curious, another look.

Have any of you seen Bird on a Wire with Mel Gibson and Goldie Hawn? If not, I suggest you take it in. You may not see the relevace of the reference, but then, you haven't seen the paint splatter on my hand:




And let me tell you, taking a picture of the back of your right hand with your left hand should be one of the tests in gynamstics class.

This is a random shot down town:




Please note: I am not changing any visible phone numbers/addresses. I don't feel it's my place. Hell, call them up and tell them you saw them on my site.

Go on!

I dare ya. Area code is (775)

I wonder if I get a discount:




So I guess that's about it, except to give Kelwhy a shout out. Figgered I'd answer you here.

Oh, and for those of you counting, yes, I did take another day off.

Yesterday, I am happy to say, I did nothing.

Well, in all accuracy, I sat in my room and played a video game from 9 am until about 11 pm. I figure I was owed it.

Since my job situation i.e. unemployed was suddenly thrust upon me, I think I've had to do something every day. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't mind doing stuff, especially as I'm not working, and have nothing better to do, but when I was working, I usually got at least one whole day off to just do nothing.

I've been working harder since I got fired.

Anyhoozle that's me done.

Carne del diablo,

Oh, get off my back.....

You know (or should by now) that a trip to L's house means at least a 2 night stay, and that I'll inevitably miss a post, as I can't post from her house.

We had a good time hanging out, and got the baby's room painted. I so love hanging out with L and S.

I took a ton of pix while I was up there, both of the room and other various things that tickled my fancy.

Expect to seem them on Thursday.

In other news, Dland is only 2 weeks away. I'm so excited that I'm nearly pissing myself.

Well, not really. I usually have pretty good bladder control, actually.

I am excited tho.

There's also a chance I may be moving in the near future. It's at least been discussed. See the deal is both Pops and I are tired of the winters here, and we've been talking about moving for a while now, but something always seems to get in the way.

The way it stands now, with no job to hold me here, it's been kinda kicked around that I could move back to CA, get a job, and sort of get us established down there, meaning that Pops would just have to get there to complete things.

More on that as it progresses.

Ok, I think I've typed myself out for the nonce.

Carne del diablo,

Too fuckin' early.....

That's what it is. I woke up about an hour ago, and couldn't fall back to sleep. Not only was it too hot, but my brain was totally awake.

I hate that. I mean, my eyes are still closed, my body is still asleep, and my brain is saying 'you might as well get up, you might as well get up.'

I decided to go ahead and post, because I may not get a chance later. When L calls, I'm going to dash out of here, and who knows when that'll be.

I don't really have much to talk about right now, so you'll have to imagine that I was witty and eloquent this morning.


Carne del diablo,

That's it, I'm outta here.....

Well, not right now, but I'm going up to Reno tomorrow morning to help L and S get the room ready for the new baby (due in jan btw and its a boy) so I'll be out of town all day, and will be spending the night up there too, as far as I know.

Hanging out up there usually involves a fair amount of beer consumption, and of course, I don't drive after I've been drinking.

I'll be taking my camera, and hopefully some pix as well. They may be boring before and after pix of the room, but I'm going to take them nonetheless.

Today was my niece's 2nd birthday party. It was supposed to be last weekend, but she got sick, the poor dear, and we had to postpone.

It was a good family day, and Ava was totally cute. Maybe I'll post a pic or 2 from the party on Thursday.

Anyhow, I'm going to go take a shower and see if that'll cool me down a bit.

Buenos con queso,

T.

Another Friday is upon us.....

Time was, I'd be wondering how busy it was going to be at work today, and dreading the late check-in people that would be rude and pissed off that they were in the wrong spot, or had gone to the cabin/condo without stopping by the office to get their fucking keys.

They'd always take it out on us because they fucked up.

Today, however, I'm looking forward to breakfast out. David, the new roomie (did i mention him earlier) has to pick up his check, and has offered to take Pops and I out for brekky.

In case I haven't told you about David, he's a friend of ours that we've known for some time now. He's the nicest guy in the world, and would literally give you the shirt off his back.

He ran into some 'where to stay' issues, and we opened our doors to him. He's stayed with us before, so it's nothing we haven't been through before. Anyhow, he's paying us what he'd have been paying for the place he was looking at, and his money has really been a help. Especially with Dland looming, and me being out of work.

Ok, guess that's all I've got today.

Carne del diablo,

T.
