Checking In

So, it has been a little while, huh?  Now, I don't presume that any of my 5 (4? 3?) readers are put out by my month long absence, but I initially intended to update this joint about once a week.  And you know... it's good to have goals, so here I am, recommitted.  I aim high, you know?

So to catch all 3-5 of you up...

About a month ago we headed east to spend Thanksgiving weekend fishing, eating pie, and visiting with assorted members of my family. It was a pretty tasty time. I won't even mention the utterly disgusting staph infection I contracted somewhere along the way, but jesus, I can't help myself... sorry folks.

Back home, I finally made it onto the über exclusive VIP substitute teacher list (you think I'm joking...), the ladies started pumping out hella eggs, and vacation rolled around once again (oh, education).

Then, despite recent raccoon sightings, we left the ladies home alone in their fortified coop (just think of the coons as Joe Pesci),  and headed south on the train.  We made stops in Eugene, Portland and Cannon Beach-- the donuts were delicious and the weather stupendous. 

We made our triumphant return late last night, and boy oh boy is it nice to be home.   I can finally focus on working my way through the last few episodes of Trailer Park Boys.  Like I said, I aim high.

(watch this, but not if you are easily offended...)

Happy Festivus (for the rest of us)!
