So, if you read it every day, open your yap while in there and say hi. ............. Hey, I was thinking of you when I put on the hot water, but didn't dare mention your name thinking it might raise you from the dead. Good to see you can still push those keys.

Good church this morning, lots of my class have gone north for the summer, so has some empty chairs if you want to come visit us. Out for din din with wifey and home for coffee and goodies. Now catch up. Be good.

The real me can't sleep but is being happily entertained by a re-airing of a Bee Gees concert. I'm currently "Stayin' Alive", enjoy your sleep, that is all.......

Man, y'all go to bed early these days. Ribs and stuffed spuds were amazing. My DW is an amazing cook. Got home and rested on deck listening to 80's tunes on the deck with a bottle or two of Shiraz-cab. Back to the salt mines in 7 hrs. I definitely need less week and more weekend. While there are definite benefits to working in the heart of Canadian capitalism (kinda like Texas of the north), the workload in the oil patch can kill you these days. I work for one of Canada's most financially successful companies over the last decade and they treat me well, but golly, there are weeks the workload hurts.
I guess I can't really complain given the road a bunch of other folks on here are hoeing.
Have a good week all DTR'onians. Will check back in on Friday when I come up for air.
