Getting through the week

As Toby Keith says, "I ain;t as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I ever was."

Went to The Pogues with [livejournal.com profile] evilnicola last night and it rocked. I managed to not kill any kids despite operating on 5 1-2 hours of sleep.

I am hawk-sitting, and one of the highlights of my day is to thaw the mousicles and feed the hawk. That's enough said about that. ;)

Reading a new W.E.B. Griffin book, "The Hostage," and the latest Jim Butcher, "Dead Beat."

Wow, my life's pretty boring.

We couldn't get a slot with Habitat in the hurricane area, so we may be going to South Carolina instead. Need to firm up plans.

Of course, what's gonna happen while I am down there?

The Arrogant Worms are going to make one of their ultra-rare local appearances at Club Passim.

That's all for now.

If you're reading The Hostage, look for this quote:

I have not gotten that far yet.

I still need to read the book that precedes The Hostage. I started it, but I never finished it.

I have read everything he's written.

By Order of the President isn't bad, but I liked The Hostage better.

I've been reading him under the name W.E.B. Griffin since about 1982 when I was living near many of the German locations mentioned in The Lieutenants. Come to think of it, at this very moment I'm in one of the buildings mentioned in The Lieutenants, IIRC.
