It's raining, men!

 Greetings from the Sunshine State.

 
Oh well.  We're getting a solid week of rain in "sunny" St. Pete Florida. Well, it IS a very warm rain so I really do not mind walking through the showers and downpours in shorts and tee shirts. And I have not had to slather on the sunblock. 
 
Dear friends wedding is later this week WITH A BEACH PARTY! 
 
Husband and I have spent the past couple of days revisiting many of our old haunts and neighborhoods (this is where we met 28 year ago). Been a good 15 years since we last came through here. 
 
One treat, though, was feasting on the whole fried catfish at Po' Folks! 
 

 
 

Rumack: What was it we had for dinner tonight?

 Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice of steak or fish.

  • Rumack: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.


 
Overall, it has been a nice trip so far. WAY too much heavy rain and humidity to go out and take in any of the nightlife.  
 
Fantastic stopover in Rehoboth Beach, TWO visits (so far) to Buc-ees,  Toured a few botanical gardens (the rain actually helped). Will write more when I get back to Row Dielan.

Sunday Morning Sip

The first weekend of October! 

Damn right!
 
 A lot of Internet-centric comics and memes today!
k. 



Civil.  Nice. Not at all politically correct. 


Watched the Internet start, blossom and now die. 

Ah-yup!

Most underrated comedy of the 20th century! 

Uh-huh! 

Don't call someone; I just want to savor this moment. 

And leave me alone!

Saturday Morning Sip

The first Saturday of October; the month that starts out all green and lush and ends up looking like a bad day at Modor by the end...

"Blurb bloob"
(saying "Fuck You" while chugging a mug of coffee) 
 
 
 

Same goes with visiting a slaughter house. Makes a 
strong case for vegetarianism. 


 

 

Thank you, Wiley. 

Hey, Southwest Water District.  Instead of 
covering Lake Powell with arrogant "Air B&B" houseboats,
how about going this route?  You can curtail the evaporation
AND generate power that the dam is about to stop doing. 

Always a "Work in Progress". 


Feels like every day turns into a "Hold my beer" kind of day. 


 
 
Just walk on by.

Your Daily Meme... and MARTINI MAN!

Thank you, Wiley! 

 

As many of you know, I pre-post my blog; often up to a month out to the actual date that the blog post goes live.  This gives me ample time to clean things up; edits, comments, swap in more topical items - without having to create a whole new entry the day of.  

I am going to be out of pocket the next several weeks with limited access to Blogger, and though the blog posts will go on as scheduled (some weekend posts may be truncated), I will not be replying to comments and conversely, not participating within the fine community of blogger friends until I return.   

Oh, what the Hell... It's Friday! MAN TIME!!!!

Morning Coffee Round-up - October 1

Good collection savored over the first sip. 

Thank you, Wiley. 
 
 

The one basic thing I hope to come out of the mid-term elections
is a new congress that will tell him and his administration, "No." 
...and mean it.  
 


 

Happy Thursday, everyone!
