potent potables

i think that's a not too infrequent jeopardy category. i don't have a whole lot to say other than, i decided that i should leave the house more. working at home was fine, well, when i was actually working. but now, my "job" is to find a job, and while i pine away at that "job" for nearly 7-8 hours every single day, it becomes more and more exhausting.

moving is on the horizon, but again, waiting for that call that means we are once again a dual-income family. yup, lots riding on that....

oh, i am also more than 1/2 way around the world in the "80 beers around the world" club at philleas. way to go. really, all that means is that i drink too much beer.

jan 20

well, i successfully missed the live broadcast of the inauguration of our new president. but, all for a good reason, was doing "job stuff" - no not "work", because chances are, if you're reading this, you know i'm what i'll call "in between jobs" at the moment. so, hopefully i'll catch the replay later.

wishing my friend norm well in his new venture in GA. Yeah Norm!

all in all, a good day. few minor successes, which at this point, i'll take.

dinner tonight - homemade french bread pizzas!

End of 2008 Update

wow, i really haven't posted anything in a while. i guess just too busy wrapped up in the job search. with any luck, that will be over soon.

i guess an update is in order, eh? since i last posted, we enjoyed a holiday trip to chicago, saw both fams, caught up with old friends, and made a few new ones, as well. while we certainly miss the peeps, we do NOT miss the weather. ;)

saw the band 2x - ontario, ca and san diego. good times. VERY good times. meeting a lot of great folk thru SCUYA too.

no crab passings to report, thank goodness.

peanut is keeping healthy, for the most part. still a little worried about his pancreas, but he "seems" to be feeling ok. we will see. max is max. nothing changes there.

need to play my guitar more.

need to ride my harley more.

chargers are out of the playoffs...season over :(

working my way thru the 80 beer club at philleas. i would guess i'm nearing the 1/2 way mark as of last night. ugh, last night.

planning (hopefully) a trip to vegas next month. also planning (hopefully) a trip to cleveland in april for the RRHOF induction of the band.

will try and be better about posting.
