First & foremost, a weekend diet of White Castle, Mongolian Beef runch special from hole-in-the-wall Chinese place @ Telegraph & Schoolcraft, chili & cheese fries, an M&M Sonic Blast, and copious quantities of beer = noxious emissions.

Second, when preparing for a trip away, it is a good idea to put ALL lunch fixin's away--especially ham. It doesn't smell bad and it doesn't taste bad, but even so, always put your meats away.

Third, I made it to Shabby's pad with neither detention nor altercation with any member of Ohio's numerous law enforcement agencies. That was a blast. Now that I have seen his progress, I'd better get unpacked so I can start, er, finish my renovations.

Fourth, thanks for the birthday wishes. I am one step closer to actual decrepitude!

And finally fifth, it's time for leftover orange Jello. Mmm, Jello...
