Much working but at least I have been seeing the girls more since I've been opening. We had surprise company from Kansas and for once it wasn't the inlaws. Our friend and her family stopped in to escape visiting her mom in a little town around here. Her daughter is the same age as the Ziz and the girls all played well together. It was... Read More
I am one load away from having all the laundry done and folded. I think whiskey and I will take the night off. The wife has bought me things to grill tonight and I bought her some peaches and cream sweet corn from a roadside market. Dinner should be great and the girls should be tired early from swim lessons. Starting to look like it... Read More
Woo hoo. The owner told me to bounce early today and the girls are out of town til this evening. I smell a nap coming on. I also have the next two days off. I have a lot of laundry to do and I should go to the store and get stuff for meals. It looks like it may actually rain here today. We could... Read More
Nice! I had a child free most-of-the-day as well, and got a LOT done around the apartment/supplementary grocery shopping.
It's getting darker out there as I type this... *crosses fingers for Rain*
Agreed. Lots of chicky goodness bumping around MR lately... AiyaCampbell and Calvaria definitely caught my eye, as well as a neat-o new set from Rainbow. I was too lazy to mention them in my blog last night, so I'm trying to make up for it here...
Blah this week has sucked donkey balls. After my chill ass weekend, even if it was only one day, being back at work with all the yelling and bullshit was has been a little taxing. On top of that the restaurant has been slow but banquet side has been busy. That is cool for me because I work bnqts but they have taken this opportunity... Read More
Woo hoo. The owner told me to bounce early today and the girls are out of town til this evening. I smell a nap coming on. I also have the next two days off. I have a lot of laundry to do and I should go to the store and get stuff for meals. It looks like it may actually rain here today. We could use it but it will just make the fucking grass grow and that just means mowing. I feel like having dinner somewhere that serves beer. Decisions decisions.
Lots of kick ass sets in MR right now. Too many to name because I am lazy but check em out.
Holy crap what a wild night. My mom watched the girls overnight and most of the day on sunday. A month or so ago the wife put in an order for some fun fungus and friday it finally came through. I had already agreed to play my brothers friends birthday party at my friends house. I got off and we went over there. The party... Read More
Being the only person at work with out music has finally driven me to buy an MP3 player. A Faux Pod not an Ipod but for those of us in my age group it's a Walkman. How could I not buy a Walkman even if it doesn't play tapes. It was cheap enough that I bought the 16gb one for me and the 8gb one... Read More
You were SO right about not saying it that way (the whole "reinvited" thing)... *rolls eyes*
It took some definite smoothing over, but I think she knows I was just joking. Let's never bring it up again, though.
Seriously.
Chicago was sick. We had apps and drinks at the hotel. We had artichoke croquettes with a great sauce and a fresh mozz prosciutto platter that was ok but nothing special. At Quay I had a woodford reserve cocktail... Read More
Well I am back. We had a great time. The wife and I got to spend a lot of time together which is fun and rare. The cooking went well (a few cuts and burns aside) and people really responded well to it. It is fun to watch people enjoy eating there because growing up I always dreaded eating Quaker food. Now however my mind... Read More
Man what a long week, and it isn't even over. Last night I went out to a bar to see a band. I couldn't hang late because I had to open but I had a good time. They were a country band though they called themselves bluegrass. Just because you have a wash tub bass player doesn't mean you are bluegrass but they were kick... Read More
Finally off work. I don't have a day off til tuesday but at least tomorrow I just have to run out to a golf course and to ceviche on tortilla chips for a couple hours. The girls have been gone all week but they come back today. I am excited to see them but I have had a hell of a time while they were... Read More
