da blogs da thang

… and the frosted grass in the yard crunch under my step. The dogs have been fed and I face the day. Hoping that this one sees the end of this write.

This was the longest hump… writing-wise that I’ve been on. Now that I’m over it things are flowing much better. Still any distractions at this point will just kill the momentum. Tally Ho!

It wasn’t quite the all-nighter. I cheated by 2 hours by hitting the sack at 4 PM and up again at 6 to continue the write. I’m plodding along but progress is being made. Just thought I’d let you know.

Oh, I did post a blog HERE though.

Cheers!

… if pulling another all nighter will actually knock this out.

coffee? check!
cigs? check!
music? check!
sanity… Sanity… SANITY???!

EDIT:
So, are magicians worldwide pooling their monies to put a hit out on this guy?

Talk about Da Big Count, huh? Let’s see what chimes in tomorrow.

For those who are not watching the games on the tube… there are also time wasters HERE, HERE and HERE.

… but I’ve been on a steep, geek and creative learning curve. It took 2 days but I think this ain’t bad for self learning over 2 days. Yes, I also loopy from the lack of sleep… but it’s been worth it. I’m just leaving this below up for just a day. If you missed it you can find it HERE.

EDIT: 3:47
If the above makes no sense what so ever… the video that was on this post (that I made) can now be found…

… I get a call from Thereminman announcing to me that he is coming over in the morning and dragging me out of my cave for a day trip to San Francisco. I agreed only if I could make certain arrangements at the homestead. I have to admit what appealed to me most about this was that it reminded me of my college years… the whole adventure of pick-up-and-go. 4 guys on a road trip with no real purpose except… to go.

We got into the city, drove down Lombard Street and found parking in North Beach… not far away from Coit Tower. We checked out shops, made our way to the City Lights Bookshop then for lunch in Chinatown. After that we headed to the Height/Ashbury area to do more window shopping. Then drove through the fog and got home just before midnight.

A fine day was had with a great bunch of blokes who just wanted to get out and stretch for a bit. Wonderful company, great conversation and a brief but sweet distraction that I think did all of us a world of good.

… that there use to be a time I felt free to call for a favor… and now I don’t. Not a complaint… just an observation.
