Vacation Starts Tomorrow!

At last! My vacation begins in about six hours. I can't wait! Work is driving me insane!

All I've been up to lately is reading Dance, Dance, Dance (Murakami) and watching Deadwood (Season 3) on DVD with Bill.

Also I've been doing quite a bit of after hours and weekend work. I'm pretty sure that project has come to an end, though. I have earned some extra cash, I hope to get my check soon. I'm not sure what I'll buy with it. Maybe furniture.

Starting tomorrow I hope to be more productive and more relaxed. Next week, I'll be on the banks of Greer's Ferry lake in Heber Springs, AR. I'll help, as well as I can, Bill with building the treehouse. We're also going to try out the nicest restaurant the area has to offer, or so we've been told, Cafe Klaser. Mostly we just intend to relax. Boating, swimming, dozing, not working, etc.

I really enjoy spending time at "Camp Hazel" because it's very remote, you can't get a cell phone signal, and it's beautiful. Something about being there makes me feel very content and relaxed.

Busy as a Bee!

It's not CCD that's been keeping me away...

I've just been working a lot lately. Extra work is keeping me busy in the evenings, and it's busier than usual at work now as well. I just have to mention, though, I wasn't too busy to send Fortean Times another link... I sent in a link about the man who attacked a peacock, which is strange enough (and SAD!), but what makes it perfectly fortean, is that the man claims the peacock was a ... vampire! Why he is the Peter Cushing of Peacocks!!!


I had a nice Fourth of July, too. Spent it with good friends, and I watched Mary Poppins with one of my favorite two year-olds. Also, at home with Bill, I watched more Dr. Who and an episode of Deadwood, which is a pretty strange combination. Take a moment and imagine the Tardis landing in Deadwood...




Now, admit it, that was fun!

Well it's beyond bedtime, and I'm not even going to have time to read a few pages of Dance, Dance, Dance tonight before I doze off...

Don't worry if the hive empties out next week. Bill and I are going on vacation soon. I'll be relaxing at the family compound, which is very remote (no phones, no Internet, barely even cellular signal there), for a while. I can't wait! We might even work on the treehouse, or maybe just float around on the lake and kind of do nothing...
