Went to work today for 7:00 A.M. A transformer near our building exploded. Knocked the power out to our building. Computers down.

My boss says "Not sure when they will be back up. If you want to take the day off you can".

I delivered a rose to my wife at work.

Picked up my dog and took him for a ride.

Bought a fancy coffee drink and a couple of McD's breakfast burritos.

Surfing Cbid now.

What a WONDERFUL day!

The toughest decision now is whether thave a cigar now or wait until later. Perhaps a little nap today?

It's be-ginning to look a-lot like -Christ-mas...

What decision is there? You have one now, take a nap, then have another later!

Yesterday was my friday. This is my first of 11 straight days of doing nothing and I get paid for all of them.

:^)

I have 50 days of leave on the books... why not use some of it?

I'm going to a rather large herf today too. Some of you folks may remember gorob23? Well... Ol' Rob is hosting his annual Holiday herf today. That man knows how to throw a party.

Oh, and 8track? Why not smoke one now and another one later?

Shawn, F it! You're on leave and I expect you to have a drink in your hands, at least on day 1.

Have a good time at the herf.

Have a cigar now and later.

Also remember that beer IS a breakfast drink.

In honor of Redleg's fine recommendation, I have have picked a cigar with a red label (Greycliff).

Glad he came up with the suggestion first, I don't have a smoke with a MACS band.

50 days off MACS? And I thought I was an anal PTO monkey by banking 24 days. Congrats.

echo4alpha is really busy with finals and stuff so he can't make the herf. While I can have a drink or two early, i'm going to be the chauffeur for xibbumbero.

I can still feed my face and smoke lots of good cigars though!

Remember, I was on the USS Mobile Bay from October of 2002 to October of 2004. During those 2 years I spent 11 months in the persian gulf. They don't ALLOW you to take leave during deployments unless it is an emergency so I built up all those days on accident. :^)

(note to self, MACS isn't a smart banker of vacation time, just lucky. If you call being in the Persian Gulf lucky).

What you smoking MACS?

I'm refraining this morning. This afternoon and evening i'll probably smoke more cigars than one man should in a 2 day span... but hey... it's a herf. *shrug*

I'm going to pack the 24 count otterbox with all sorts of goodies.

Maybe I will fire up a small one... one of the ERDM Demi-Tasse from 1990. Slightly larger than a cigarette, but tastes way better. :^)

It's only 61 degrees right now dude. That's jacket weather here!

But it's almost 10am. Couple hours it'll be a bit warmer, I hope.

Oh well. Looks like I drive alone. Drink to excess and sleep on Rob's lawn til the sprinklers come on.
