rumors at the stalag say we may have a week (err...weekend) off for Thanksgiving
!! that'd make for a long 10 days off (counting the 1 workless work weekend, and the 2 "mid-week weekends"...confusing, right?) ! I could dig that! I'm not sure how it's possible, since we've been bustin' 12's, and expediting parts left and right, but, for now, I'll cross my fingers. I'm supposed to bring the cool hippy neighbor lady to Grand Rabbits airport tomorrow. whilst there, I'll see about calling the Kid. maybe he'll wanna do lunch *plan*
after last night's stalag stint, the pooperdog and I go for a walk in the fog, then I take a nap for a good 5 hours, followed by laundry, cleaning the kitchen, doing some dishes, (and other catch-up type things). it's nice outside. zero wind, 57F. maybe I'll bust out the rake for that last time. I need to pick me up a sixer of Centennial IPA first to get motivated. *ready, GO!*
later: as I'm ready to bust out the rake, the wind picks up, so I grab the claw rake instead and fill the holes in the yard that the silly dusty poodle headed pooperdog had dug. I'd hate to twist an ankle in one while walking thru the snow, so I filled 'em up and leveled the ground (she'll prob'ly dig 'em back up again before the ground freezes, but that's ok. it's our little game. I let her win...she's gettin' old
)I quick stop off to my favorite beer store. they have a wall of import/microbrews that one can pick and choose, filling an empty six pack carrier (provided). I fill two sixers with many different style and brand beers. I used to do this a lot. it's a bit more expensive, but it gives me the chance to try beerses that you usually don't see at the store. the first beer I randomly grab from the fridge is called: 'red seal ale'. brewed in Fort Bragg, CA. the little side note says "water, malted barley, hops, yeast, and that's all". it's delicious! anyway, Pandora radio on 'Laika and the Cosmonauts' , taste testing beers on the porch with an old dog....and life is good!
