Getting kind of apprehensive. Always do before going on a trip, but it’s the good kind, mostly excitement, mostly trying to remember everything we’re supposed to do.

I’ll be off the OKP until Monday probably, but with a little luck, I’ll get some time to meet up with Jawbone for a drink or ten. This isn’t exactly a happy trip to Florida. This will probably be the last time we see Marie’s mom, who’s fading away in a nursing home from inoperable heart problems, and that’s going to be a tough realization especially when it’s time to leave. The lady will be 90 on Friday, and she’s been a damn good soul for as long as I’ve had the pleasure to know her.

If I don’t get a chance later, take care OKP, I’ll see ya on the flip side of this trip.

Best wishes on your travels, Bill. Ninety years old is a GREAT run.

#1483

Yeah Bill, hope your time in FL is the best it can be under the circumstances. 90 indeed.

My current thought is: You know those CD holders that strap to car visors? I wonder how long it’ll take before there’s a mass email going around explaining how you need to put your car visor CD holder on the inside of the visor, so that when you use it to block the sun, you’re not blasting your discs with sunlight.

I figure it’s usually ladies who put their visors on the outside of the visor, only because I asked my sister why she does it, and she says it’s because she’d be blocking the nifty mirror on that side of the visor.

I told her she probably has another mirror in her purse she could use instead, and spare the 12 CDs from their inevitable impending destruction.

I haven’t checked, but I bet she didn’t change it.

I wonder, if there does end up being one of those popular mass-email warnings, like you get from mom (even though you read that same one years ago, you still get it from time to time … you know the ones I mean?) … I wonder if it’ll include the tip to simply use your pocket book mirror, or use the rearview if you have to. It’s worth sparing your discs.

and in other news, my state is on fire.

it was a beautifal day earlier this afternoon. I was doing a bit of cleaning at the house but i made it my business to take some extended breaks out by the pool and bask in that good ole Florida sun. Then when dusk started to set in it got a bit hazy. No big woop, the Everglades are always on fire. Sometimes the wind blows and you can smell the smoke. But its getting worse. I was going to go for my usual bike ride just now and when i went outside the smoke was outlandish. There’s a big hostpital a few blocks away that is hard to miss but with the smoke and haze you can barely see it. And the sky has a tint of orange that makes it look like the sun is about to rise from every part of the sky, either that or a nuke just went off. The breathing air is also a bit intolerable. I was out there for no more than 5-10 minutes investigating and now i smell like i’ve been hovering over a charcaol grill for like three hours.

Too smoky to ride my bike around and the good folks on the local news are predicting it to be even worse tomorrow! I haven’t been able to ride my bike all weekend because i’ve been busy with family and such and its about all i wanted to do tonight and tomorrow and now i cant. waaaaaaaaah.
