Long week

I was in training most of last week in the Land of Auto Flushers.   My brain has been turned to mush.

Happy Easter

Resurrection of Christ or bunnies and chicks? Or is it a celebration of Spring coopted by Christians?

It's Friday

Yeah, it's only been a three-day week for me, but I'm tired.

OK Mother Nature

Enough is enough.  Wet snow on the ground this morning.

Back to work

Four working days off, how the fuck did I accumulate all this shit in my inbox?

Hungover

Good wedding, great reception. That is all.

In Gilbert Arizona

Waiting for breakfast to be delivered to the room.  Long travel day yesterday; pick up tux and rehearsal today.

Traveling

I'll be traveling the next week or so. Posting may be more sporadic than usual.

Bristol Chart and the Blustery Day

It's a lovely day outside. Contrary to the normal Seattle gloom and drizzle, it's *raining* and a bit windy. I like it.

Working today

That is all

Friday!

Unfortunately, it's not payday and I am working this weekend. But it's still Friday.

Getting ready for a trip

Mrs Bristol and I are going to visit AZ next weekend for a friend's wedding. I enjoy travel alone; with wife, not so much.

I'm one of those people who arrive at the airport 3 hours before my flight, get through security, grab a coffee and newspaper and relax until it's time to board. She, on the other hand, leaves home with just enough time to get to the airport and rush to the gate as they are boarding; it doesn't help that she needs a wheelchair for the long treks. We pack differently, I have a carry on packed two days in advance; she's still throwing too much stuff into a huge suitcase as we're heading out the door.

She's also a nervous flier, where I am the exact opposite. So she's also doped up on antianxiety meds; a little turbulence and she's a basket case. I'm looking forward to being there, but not to getting there.

Snow?

Yes, it's snowing right now.

Vegas

I need a Vegas break.  I have three vacations scheduled this year, but none to Vegas.  Going to Reno in August, but the "Biggest Little City in the West" just doesn't have the same vibe.

Young cats

Our kittens are growing up.  They'll be a year old next month.  Still active pains in the butt, but loveable.

Yep, Spring is definitely here

We hit the magic temperature yesterday. The slugs hatched!! The driveway here at work was awash with baby slugs.
