9583- Friday
Friday at last. Got a long weekend ahead of me – but I’ve got a couple of issues I’ve got to tend to before I fully relax. Two things for work to get in alignment – Wednesday will have to go for it! 4 day weekend ahead. Part of it will be spent celebrating the new prez, but most of it will be just relaxing. I’ll see if BHK wants to go on a little date maybe, too.
Low today of 7 degrees Fahrenheit. (High of 22). If it’s going to be this cold, it could at least snow, but it is as sunny as can be.
Trimmed back the beard – may return to goatee on the weekend. It’s really good at fighting the cold, though.
Rest in Peace, #6 and Mr. Roarke. I hope the new islands suit you both, glad you spent so much time on this one.

A cat named Sammy was usually seen lounging in the window of the post office in Notasulga, Alabama until someone complained.
*
“They said ‘This is a federal building and he doesn’t pay federal taxes so he can’t come in’,” said postal worker Rochelle Langford.
*
But Sammy’s supporters think they have found a way around the banishment. They have rented a post office box in his name!

Speaking of Orange Kitties –
Forgot to post this on Monday – Newt leaps in from the side of Newtcam! BHK said that something got into his head and he went on a tear through the house—up and down the stairs and jumping on all the cat furniture. Pye and BHK as usual looked at him like he was a crazy orange beast 😀

Back to work today – Still plenty sick, but I need to get things taken care of, and I’m not dying or anything.
Snow falling as I hopped aboard the train – and it stuck to the ground, crunching underfoot as I walked the last bit from the bus to the office door. It stuck until about midday. It’s about 14 degrees tonight, got up to 32 with the sun out.
Confirmation on Feb 2 off – looks like I’m going to see Punxy Phil after all! Also got the 19th off, so nice long weekend – 20th is off for all in dc – inauguration traffic nightmare averted!
Christmas Tree is outside, drying by the fire pit. I suspect we’ll use it to heat the ring, or cover it in suet and feed the little birdies. We still have fairy lights on the gutter of the house, but they are unlit – probably will come down this weekend.
BHK and I have been listening to old Time radio on XM – She seemed to really enjoy Lucy Ball in "my favorite Husband" on the ride home.
Picked up $4 worth of scratch offs of our weekly gambling habit – won $6! a $2 profit quickly absorbed by her craving for slim jims.

Still feeling gut-lousy – went to the dentist for a followup. Dreamt unhappily that I was lost in the mall, BHK took off in the Love cube, and I had to climb a giant couch to make it outside. BHK had a nightmare about me power-washing the kitchen, and her in it, too.
Had a calzone – not sure if it helped or not, but it’s the first really palpable food substance in days.
Started reading The 13 and 1/2 lives of Captain Bluebear about 100 pages in, and I’m enjoying it quite a bit. It has a Munchausen vibe to it that I dig.

Beware the 13th!
Sick as a very sick dog. Got as far as the Metro station, and turned around and went home as I started hacking like a plague victim. BHK spun me around and home we went. Coughing due to infection blended with poor lungs in the bitter cold and firewood smoke, I think.
Slept most of the day. Ate some noodle soup, saltines, and a lot of ginger ale.
Eyes too tired to read – drained the Tivo remaining Dr. Who episodes. I liked the evil "shadow monster in the library planet" episode – fun, goofy, but spooky and sad, too.
Newton, Pye and BHK are all excellent caretakers while I’m a big sick baby.
