For those of you who asked, I am OK. Just really, really busy.
It’s frisbee season again, which means that three nights out of seven I am running around in the mud, chasing after plastic discs. Then there’s the newsletter for the neighborhood association, which seems to consume most remaining weeknights, and Friday and Saturday nights (when I am not out of town for a tournament) are reserved for Having a Good Time—or, when I’m lazy, watching Arrested Development.
Plus, there’s that whole I-spend-eight-hours-a-day-burning-astigmatism-into-
my-eyeballs-by-staring-at-my-fucking-PC thing. When I come home and have a few hours to kill, I ask myself this question: Would I rather sit down to my computer, or have a beer with the neighbors in the sunshine (finally! The sun is back!) and grill up some grub? It’s not hard to figure out the answer to that.
Anyway. I still need to work on the neighborhood newspaper. And eat dinner. And it’s 10 pm. Awesome.

Beer on a deck sounds like a superb idea. Albeit a ways away at 6:48 a.m. eastern time. But that is the kind of thing that makes the season enjoyable.

Well, that you do the work. It’s kind.^ No clarity before caffeine over here.

^I’m with Boo. I’m nonfunctional until the coffee has worked its way in to my system.
I’m with you on the sunshine and Arrested Development. I told someone the other day he looked like a chicken and then did one of the chicken moves (the “coo-coo-ka-cha!” one). Nobody but me thought it was funny. Apparently not everyone loves Arrested Development.
