    After last night's little snowfall, this is now officially the 2nd snowiest winter on record in these parts.

    Big whoop...

    I got some good work in this morning, but I'm not sure where my writing mojo went. Finally get to the complications in the story, and blammo, don't feel it. WTF.

    We know your feelings, HB.

    Even I'm getting tired of it, and that speaks volumes.

    Pretty much, all the above.
    At least what I remember from my sales days. ;)

    On an additional note, I'm going to try out the first panel.
    My first St. Patrick's Day bar night out in a decade.
    Wish me luck. :D

    I'll see you at Pub Dog if I can ever find parking.

    Street Pattern Very Tilted

    Going to a bar on St. Patrick's Day is pretty unappealing considering that the place (any place) would be extremely crowded, and I'd be very unlikely to see anyone I know.

    It would be just like drinking alone, except much louder and more expensive.

    On St. Paddy's Day I counted 156 days of sobriety.

    Nope...turned out to be quite "normal"
    Not too crowded, everyone was well behaved.
    Then again, I decided to walk, not drive, to a franchise "Greene Turtle" near me. (not the best place, but close & safe)
    That, and it was Monday after a snowstorm...so likely many were home instead. (I heard Sunday was more populated)
    But...I had a couple of Guinnesses, a couple of Cap & Cokes, a couple of meals...and a triple shot with a birthday gathering next to me.

    A couple of double-takes/glances from some cuties...but nothing substantial to work in on.
    Not my best night out, but not my worst either.

    It was a nice outing, nice buzz, nice walk and not much money spent.
    However, I did have some decent chats & smiles, so I wasn't a pariah. (which has happened at times)
    And it's back to work tomorrow.

    If there would have been more energy, then I might have dove in a bit more.
    But sedate provokes sedate.

    Good practice though...I'll be back in it to win it, sooner or later.
    Right now, I'm just dabblin' my toes in the water...before I do a full dive and laps.

    Mondo gnarly, brother.

    I'll prepare a modern rifle/pistol class for whenever you schedule your east coast tour. Gotta cover all the bases.
