good weekend? fuck yes good weekend

[livejournal.com profile] 2wanda and i went to Dishdash yesterday to have lunch with the lovely [livejournal.com profile] madmerle and the irrepressible [livejournal.com profile] drieuxster.  drieux is entertaining and educational.  He also won't shut up.  The three normal people had a pleasant conversation during the silent gaps while drieux was swallowing.  Three hours later, we managed to escape by distracting him with what i assured him was a small swatch of fabric from Barry Goldwater's favorite suit, in exchange for which [livejournal.com profile] madmerle gave us a bottle of Smoking Loon 2005 Syrah.

That evening, we went to [livejournal.com profile] thib_gc's birthday party, and we picked up [livejournal.com profile] sandollar17 so she wouldn't have to walk there in the rain.  A fabulous time was had, and much wine was drunk; someone brought a bottle of Ravenswood 1996 Zinfandel, which i thought might be past its prime, but my fears turned out to be unfounded.  We donated our bottle of Dunnewood 1997 Charbono Port to the cause.

Kim prepared a feast today for her knitting circle; [livejournal.com profile] sandollar17 came, and so did [livejournal.com profile] amywithani and [livejournal.com profile] racerxmachina, and somehow [livejournal.com profile] palecur snuck along, so we played Magic: The Gathering with Type P decks as i looked over my shoulder in case work reared its ugly head.  And now, it's time to get to bed.

I really do little more than work, and analyse the data sets of the news and culture...

I am, technically, a bit more RELAXED!!!! since the november 2006 elections, but there is such a freaking Mess to clean up, and we really need to get past merely the hope that majikally the old 22nd Amendment will turn out the last Great Leader, and give us a New Great Leader!!!

For impolite Double Header, Try mashing Gary Cooper in Ayn Rand's "FountainHead" with the fun filled excitement of Peter O'Toole in "stunt Man"...

There I go again, always charging forward...

Ah yes, I still haven't quite recuperated from that one...

Is Not Just Job, Is Adventure....

Think of it as Being All The You Can Be - and that with a chance to be a greater War Hero than the rest of the fighting 101st Keyboardists...
