Good Morning Oh Kee Pa (Part 1)

Only Thursday? Damn, I’m exhausted as if it were Friday. Been a tough week at work so far. Need some kind of rejuvenating therapy to change this perspective. Maybe I’ll knock off early, have a few beers and play some video games. Now there’s a carrot that might get this ole ass back on track.

Have a great Thursday O Great OhKeePa.

Good morning. So close to the weekend and Cubs opening series against the Pirates :thumbup: . It is scheduled to be the crappiest opening day weather in like 47 years or something… :thumbdown: Let’s put up some Ws anyway!

Good morning.

Hard to believe the week’s almost over but pretty glad it is.

I’ve completely droppped the ball on my push for health. For 2 reasons best I can tell: one being my knee which has been all kinds of pissed since I ran the 5k. The other reason is that my husband is no longer waking me up at 6 so he can get ready for work. I’m either too tired to get up on my own or so comfortable snuggled up next to him that I never get up in time to work out before I have to take Kenzie to school. I haven’t gained what I lost but I’m certainly not making anymore progress. Must. Get. Back. On. Track.

Anyhow.

Enjoy your Thursdays all!

Morning Pa!!

Hope yer knee feels better Nonnie!!

YAY BASEBALL!!!

GO TIGERS!!!

IT’S ALMOST FRIDAY!!!

I have to wait until next week to see the Tigers in person! Road trip to start the season blows!!

Need to rest up, head still hurts, dog is injured and the vet can’t tell me anything!!!

Lates

Baseball time!!

Loves to all!

Mornin!

Sore back near my shoulder, sucks! :thumbup:

I’m so fucking sick of writing this grant. I feel like it’s the only thing I’ve been doing for the last six months (and to some extent this is true). Up late again last night writing it, going to keep working on it all day today. I’m submitting it on Monday or Tuesday, so that’s a relief. I don’t even want the money anymore, I just want to be done :angry:

Good morning. It’s cloudy & chilly, supposed to be rainy for a few days. But I took advantage of the last few days and managed to throw discs a whole bunch. Can’t say I truly got it out of my system.

Gonna drive up to Boston for rehearsal tonight, for tomorrow’s Big Gig. Tell all your friends about us. We’re Batman. I don’t know what that means. Rogue movie reference.

Welp, I’m looking forward to the future, but not yet. Right now my present is all f*cked and this coffee has grounds in the bottom. Which, you know, that’s the easy part.

Sounds good to me!

^Was good. Trouble is the beer didn’t help my game playing. Played MLB, the game I bought with my gson last weekend, and all I found out once again is that my coordination and reaction time really sux.

I set the game up to be the Tigers playing the Yankees at NY, just like the game that was being broadcast on some other video feed channel to my TV, and I played as the Tigers. Even pitched as Justin Verlander against CC Sabathia, and managed to strike out the sides several times. But my corodination in fielding is what really did me in, and as the Yankees began to pull away in the sixth, I abandoned the game. I also began to get sleepy, and that didn’t help matters.

Taking my son-in-law (and his wife) out to the Bonefish Grill tonight for dinner as part of the only re-payment he would take for doing some work around the house for us recently. Love the Bonefish, especially an appetizer called ‘Mussels Josephine’. I have it everytime I go there, like I do the ‘Blooming Onion’ at Outback.

Weather is crappy today but the weekend is going to be nice around these here parts. Great news about Watkins Glen on the 4th. I love that part of NY State. Some of my favorite wineries are nearby and if you’re going, you have to spend some time at the waterfalls in that area. There are several worth seeing.

Have a great weeks end.

still funny. actually makes me want to get ready for work more than anything else this morning. :laughing:

Almost weekend.

Yesterday was the week.

Tomorrow is the weekend.

Fun. Fun. Fun.

:yawn: :yawn: :yawn:

Gonna be a lot of those today. I only got 5 hours of sleep, which is faaaar too little for this guy. BUT it was for a happy reason at least. Played some music with a new group of musicians last night in Lansing. We weren’t able to start until 8, which meant we finished around 10:30, which then meant that I had to drive the 80 miles back home only to wake up and drive my ass back out here at 5:30am this morning. Weak, but probably worth it. I’ll report back later as I’m sure to crash eventually. This combined with the re-emergence of my other band means there is potential for maximum rawkage in the near future :thumbup:

::brews second pot of coffee::

Goooood mornin ohkeepa!

^Good morning from heaven!?!?

:wave:

Okay then!

Friday!!

YEAH!!

Final 4 Weekend!!!

Gonna go to a taco party tonight!! Sounds sweet!!

Dinner with some out-of-towners tomorrow!!

Nothing on Sunday!!!

PEACE!

Went and caught Chicago’s newest Phish cover band last night–The Helping Phriendly Orchestra. They cover Phish shows in their entirety. They did a show from 1994–can’t remember which one. Hungover :sick:

Mornin.

Loves all around.

Rain and snow in MN today, awesome…

Watkins on my mind…

So far this morning’s not bad! I am lucky though, cuz I was late for everything and everyone let me just get away with it. :think: It’s cuz they love me.

Welp, tonight I’m playing this gig I’m excited to do, should be fun, and I expect to shelf my worries until sometime tomorrow. Probably turn the worrying back on say, mid day tomorrow.

Think of all the pizza there is.

That sounds pretty awesome. Do they go out of state? Anyway I really agree with your last statement.

Hey hey, hi, ho. A super Saturday morning ole OKP.

The sun is out in full force this morning although it’s a little chilly for April, and I’m in a great head. Could have been the bloody marys I had last night at dinner with Marie and Liz and Jaime at the Bonefish. Had to wait about an hour for the table and we sat at the bar doing drinks and bang bang shrimp. I can’t eat shrimp so I had more drinks to make up for it, so by the time dinner came around, my mood was quite delightful and manages to be that way still.

Just hanging with my sweetie this morning, doing cleaning chores, but that’s good because I need to be close with her this weekend. Besides the fact that we’ve had company for the past two weekends, I won’t be seeing her much this upcoming week since I’ll be in Syracuse Monday and Tuesday, and MD on Thursday, and then we have another gkid coming over on Friday.

So this weekend is about us, and I’m feeling happy about that beside the residual bloody mary mood. Hope your weekends are as delightful.

^Nice, fone! Bloody Marys are good stuff when they’re made right. Give me heartburn, though. :blush:

I hear ya about the quality time with the wife… been traveling a lot and working weekends and such and it’s been tough to get in that quality time!

However… we did go check out the special screening of Big Lebowski at the little theater on our corner last night… and, man, that movie just never gets old! First time I saw it on the big screen. :sunglasses:

Say hi to Syracuse for me!
