Quite fine, thank you. Yesterday, too. Looking forward to tomorrow, also.

I'm rubbing my magic crystal balls and focusing all my powerful scents to summon mixedmedia....

I suspect he's up but busy. Unlike me, who should be busy but is putting off going to the market.

jewels, need anything from the market?

Tully Mars

I'm up... now. Wedding on the beach in front of my house yesterday. The music finally stopped at 4-5 this morning. I think I'm headed to Sam's Club this afternoon to purchase a BIG ASS sound system to return such favors. Wonder if a bunch of drunk sleeping Mexicans would appreciate A/C, Judas Priest and Led Zepplin pounding away at 180 dB as much as I enjoy their music? I figure they turn their music off at 5 or 6 and I start mine at 7 or 8 that's gotta be fair, right?

Nick, have a better night then my dogs and I?

My older boy asked for 3 tickets to the Lil Wayne concert last night as his 16th birthday present, so he and his two best friends could go. By this morning he said he could almost hear normally again.

uncle phil

Good morning. No music last night, no more head cold though I'm still not at 100% energy levels. And one more week of running an hour later then normal. Mexico sets it's clocks back Sunday morning.

I have time for him if he ever shows up. In the meantime,

a late-afternoon visit by the one, the only, the most famous uncle of them all, uncle phil!?

genuinegirly

I like to catch people off-guard.
I hope that someone really neat posts next... like BadNick!
(that would have been accurate had I not taken so long to think about who to choose. Hmph)

Reality has a way of wiping away our current thoughts.
