quick update, then i'm gonna get out of here.

Rhys got home okay, although there were a lot of plain delays. apparently he was on one of the trains that got bombed, but it was about an hour before it happened. scary shit, man. glad he wasn't running late that day.

spent way too much money at the grocery today. usually i'll spend between $20...

Glad to hear Rhys made it home okay.

Oh, and I can spend money like a well-paid bisexual crackhead sailor on shoreleave when it comes to food shopping when I'm the least bit hungry.

My wife is the exact same way, so there's no voice of reason involved.

We've spent over $100 on days where we've started out saying "Do we really need anything from the grocery store today?"

Miss ya.

Rhys is supposed to be flying home from London today. eeek

i'm not worried that he might have been hurt- hell, thankfully it seems that no one was seriously hurt. i just wonder if he was able to get to the airport, or if they shut down transportation. i don't exactly when he was supposed to leave the city, but it seems like the attacks happened...

My sons has been sick too.
I went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
I was disappointed though.
I didn't like the Oompas....at all.

Maybe you will.
Just thought I would warn you.
War of the Worlds was good though. Have you seen it yet?

Well, as it turns out it will just be my oldest and me, so I am going to take her to the French market and some of the cool shops on Decatur. I was just worried about walking around with the youngest without Vanny...but our oldest is taller than me so I would be more likely to be abducted than she would! LOL It'll be a new experience for me...I've never walked around NOLA without Vanny...or atleast someone who knew the city really well..you'd think I'd know it by now, i go there so much....But I'm usually just following the tall people leading me around! LOL I know...it's sad! lol

No worries on the response. I've had them get away from me a couple of times. Very frustrating after you've actually taken the time to offer a complete thought. Glad to know you made a go of it, though.

I, too, was pulled from my semi-self-imposed house arrest. A friend managed to wrangle some Cubs tickets for Friday afternoon. I'm generally blah about sports in general, but I love going to Wrigley Field. Sunday saw me attend my first wedding ever. Aside from the fact that I was wearing a suit in 95 degree heat and 80% humidity (not that I'd have the audacity to complain about heat and humidity to someone in La), it was pretty cool. The cynic in me still wonders why people are inclined to formalize their relationship for friends and taxes, but a good time nonetheless. The open bar was distracting enough to compensate for the heat and cynicism.

Bah, I can't pretend to be that jaded, yet. It was very cool to see two people in their late fifties each marrying for the first time. In a gooey, romantic way, I was reminded that patience counts for something. No two ways about it, it's good to see people in love and very nice that I was asked to join them. However, if I ever write a song to that effect, I have a Vertabreaker or worse coming my way. shocked

Did you see GWAR yet? You mentioned that it was in the plans somewhere. I never really listen to them, but I've seen them twice and am very glad they exist. I'm in it for the show. Pink Floyd falls into the same category for me.

For the love of Gawd, feel well. You've been flirting with this thing for a couple of weeks, no? Bite your lip and give it hell.

I, too, had a week of getting out for the sake of getting out.

My experience in food and beverage sevice sounds similar to yours. Quietly resent the coke-heads and assholes, but give 'em some slack if the green matches the grunt.

Grits do have taste. Good taste, at that. I have a family that's largely from the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida, so I was weened on them. This far north, though, noses go up as soon as the g-word is mentioned. funny thing is that, when I was writing menus for resorts and B&Bs in Vt, I served grits daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Call them 'soft polenta' and, suddenly, mouths water. Yeah, there's a big difference, but those rubes never seemed to find it.

Good luck with the art gig. Discounted supplies are never to be taken lightly.

i was having trouble sleeping last night, so i got up, got dressed and went to the bar. the usual suspects presided. did run into a friend who had moved away and was back in town house hunting. said san fran was too expensive, but i'd still rather be there than here. i drank 4 beers in the span of two and a half hours,...

Nah I didn't get to watch it last night. I was workin. But I was thinkin of the shananagins Carlito was probably getting himself into. I did, however, watch the videos on WWE.com. Piper calling Carlito "Buckwheat" was funny. But the look on Carlito's face was even funnier.

I actually just got off of work. Feel like doing anything?

I had some masturbation dream last night... no, I'm not tryin to be controversial. It wasn't particularly impressive or anything... I just find it funny that it's always masturbation, never sex; it's like even my subconscious mind has given up on the idea that I will ever have sex again in my life. whatever

I'll tell you- summers halfway up the contry aren't much better, hon. The air here was sick today. Just oxygenless hot-blast mess.
