Yeah, I'm here and I'm staying awake for now. Don't actually feel tired.

Now I'm going to have a beer, which will probably knock me out.

See, that wasn't such a long night - only three posts!
Better have a shot with the beer.

*walks in doubled over in laughter....."AH HAHAHA!!! Sits down at Bar, dabs at tears in her eyes*

I just got back from bringing dirt up to a friend's house in 2 plastic garbage cans.....we had a minor mishap! As soon as I got there it just started to POUR! It must've rained about 2 inches in 15 minutes it came down so hard. I had the cans in the back of my truck and we took the first one down and it spilled a bit, no problem we scooped up the mud. The next one was really filled with water, the black dirt now very wet and muddy......we pulled it out and BAM! it hits the ground flat and the mud splashes all over me! I had mud all over my arms and legs! I just busted out laughing! My friend chuckled a bit and says, "Well, you were going to go take a shower anyways right?" Oh, I guess ypu had to be there but it was quite funny at the time!

So, okay then......maybe a beer would be tasty right now. A Leinie's Creamy Dark sounds good.

*walks back to cooler and scrounges a beer, cracks it open and takes a long drink*

Ah yes, that hits the spot fer sure!

Hi all, I'm home.

Had a good weekend. It was fun, though I could have asked for a little better weather. Friday night was nice but it rained pretty much all of Sat. and of course Sunday was nice but we were all packing up. It was fun though, we had a group of about 12 or so. I'm happy to report that my tent held up pretty well, just one little leak that I was able to wipe up. Oh, had a good burn too. Once the weather cleared on Sat. night. Umm, thats all I can think of now.

'Morning Nightowl, Fishie! Wow... danish! I sure picked the wrong week to start my diet!!

(eyes wander over to this box of incredible danish, the smell of baked delicacies wafting through the air...)

Noooo.... Must... resist...

My weekend turned out OK, too... didn't get too much work done on the project, but I think I may have my brother talked into coming out to the camp this year. Kinda depends on his job, but he's getting jazzed. WOuld make building the camp this year a whole lot easier... otherwise I may need to tag onto another camp...

Oh, we did see a movie also... Cinderella Man... I think it might be academy material. Better than the Lucas' entry this year... Pretty incredible story - Hard to believe a movie about boxing in the 30's would be so darn good... (Tho I have to admit to being a boxing fan anyway).





(Turns back to goodies... )

Oh, did see a movie, too...

Quiet day in the bar. I just picked up a couple of bottles of Speyside for a really good price. Anyone want some?

Still recovering from the weekend actually. I was tired all day. I was just thinking of calling it a day since this scotch is doing it's job real well.

ohhh...I did get one of DallasPlaya's necklaces today. Very nice. I owe him a drink.

Oh well. Coffee time for me.

Yeah, after I wrote that I figured that was what you meant. I just signed in, but you all are so damn prolific over there that it takes me a week to just catch up and then I'm behind.

I'll try to be better.

Smooches to you for thinking about me.

Life has me by the short and curlies right now, work mostly, but home isn't far behind.

I'm still happy though, just stressed out a bit. This weekend we start building the big windmills, so I'm getting geeked for that.
