People at work have told me I have looked a little hagard, a little less peppy and generally tired lately. I have felt run down lately. Perhaps it is the overabundance of sunlight we have had in the northwest over the last couple of weeks.
I then realized that despite not being Catholic, […]
Based on an post by Warren Ellis, I have stopped watching the Oscars and I have started reading the Defamer’s liveblogging of the Oscars. It actually makes the Oscars funny again.
I started to do my taxes today. Not much fun, but ok.
I listened to a couple of Paul Weller cds while entered data into various forms. The music relieved a bit of the tedium of the tax process.
It’s been a long week. Longer than five days for my brain. Patty is in Las Vegas for the weekend, so I am doing my best interpretation of a hermit, which is a good thing.
No fasting though. Dinner was a very yummy risotto based on a Naked Chef recipe accompanied […]
Patty and I caught a showing of Sideways on Sunday night. It was the perfect code to a day drinking wine on Saturday, but I don’t think it is a perfect movie. In fact, I laughed and enjoyed it for the most part, but the movie is retreading some things that make it […]
It is disheartening to read about my home town of Killington being run into the ground by the greedy and and the insane.
I grew up in Killington when it was called Sherburne. Killington was just the name of the ski resort. It now appears that the Vermont state tax […]
Leavenworth was a blast over the weekend, but in an unexpected way. I planned to imbibe great quantities of alcohol (or at least large quantities to me) over the weekend, but I thought it would be beer not wine. However, it was wine and lots of it. It appears that Leavenworth is […]
Hunter S. Thompson is dead. From the reports, it is suicide. Weird.
Just got back from seeing Sideways and buying groceries at the local Top Foods, and I got the information from several different sources.
It’s been a good, fun, weird, sad weekend.
Off to Leavenworth today for a little bit of rest and relaxation with our friends Chris, Richard and their daughter Sam.
We will probably visit Uncle Ulees at some point, which is a little pub off the main square. Maybe King Ludwigs, which will probably have live music (or at least they used to). […]
I have been on the wine kick for a couple of months now. It has been fun and interesting, as it gives me another part of the grocery to wander around for a while trying to find something to drink.
In the process I have found 2 bottles of the red wine that […]
