‘Mansion Madam’ puts home up for sale

I wonder…

Monday, February 25th, 2008

I wonder if the dance clubs already have a system in place where you can use your cell phone to text/sms your song requests to them without having to wait in line at the booth where DJ Stashu Stash is busy pumping wattage into your cottage. It would be even cooler if you would get a text back with an ETA so you know to use the toilet or check your hubcaps. Anyways, this weekend was not much of one. I had to work Saturday and started to get violently ill by late Saturday night. I was practically in traction all day Sunday with it coming out both ends. I’m blaming it on either bad Mexican food Friday night or some pork fat that I ingested early Saturday evening. Luckily the females of the house didn’t catch what took me down. Today, I am at 90% which isn’t bad since I try to maintain a 95% uptime for myself.

Happy Presidents’ Day

Monday, February 18th, 2008

In celebration of Presidents’ Day, I have a movie suggestion for y’all. It’s Bob Roberts. A good political satire for your viewing pleasure. Nothing major happened this past weekend. Ran a couple of errands. We ate lunch at Zesto’s on Ponce de Leon in Atlanta Saturday. Sunday we just stayed in since there was supposed to be a strong storm but it weakened by the time it got to our area. I’m off today but I had to install a CPU fan at one of my customer’s computers so that got me out of the house while Katherine and Lily did a little food shopping at Kroger.

Valentine’s Day Dinner

Friday, February 15th, 2008

The three of us went to our favorite Valentine’s Day eatery – Chateau Elan’s Versailles Restaurant. It’s a large buffet with really good eats. Entrees included Striped Bass, Prime Rib, Salmon, Veal, Lamb, and Chicken. The Striped Bass was seared and very tasty. I had it all but the Salmon and Chicken. Lily liked the Bass, Truffle Mashed Potatoes, and Braised Red Cabbage with Apples. I wanted to take a picture of all of our plates but Katherine suggested it would be rather low rent. I think it’s totally worth it to drop a c-note once a year to munch on some fine fare.

To some…

Friday, February 8th, 2008

I reckon to some the weekend may well be now beginning. I worked an 8 hour shift and then had to go out moonlighting for an hour. I’m also having to work tomorrow (Saturday). Luckily I am able to collect a fee appropriate to my travelings. It’s nice to come home to a loving wife and child when it’s all said and done, not to mention rum and coke waiting for me as well.
