Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

What am I doing New Years Eve?


This evening, I sat out in the shop watching LSU clobber GA Tech in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl (very boring after the 1st qtr) ... Reading a Dee Henderson book "Truth Seeker" ... while channel hopping between football, J-Lo in Maid in Manhattan, and Will Ferrell in Elf. We don't have cable TV in the house. Scratch your head and figure that one out ... meanwhile, Presley, our neighbor's mutt, had found a warm piece of carpet to sleep on and had no intention of leaving the workshop. Can't blame him ... the weather is doing a nosedive to 32 degrees ... which is why I had my insulated boots and winter coat on (with a warm windproof hood). About 9 p.m. some of the neighbors shot off fireworks ... and a couple others shot their guns ... But it's been real quiet since then. Our town is only 2 houses deep ... everything behind them is farms. I'll eat a few chocolate chip cookies and go to bed about 11:30 p.m. There are more football games to watch tomorrow. My wife is playing scrabble on the computer and managed to get 64 pts for playing "za". Triple letter, triple word score ... the computer flashed "You Won!" on the screen.

We are whooping it up with a bag of Gummi SourMix candy. And I still have a chocolate covered marzipan bar in my Christmas stocking. We are just really living it up tonight. (not)

You were living it up more than we were! Jordan threw up last night, Mandorallyn was asleep by 7pm, and then we were all asleep at 9pm!
