Sooooo.... Real life. No big deal.And for those of you wondering where I was the past few days...
It's all good.
My DSis flew in late last week.
She's a big hometown football fan.
So she bought two tickets to a game
and I went with her.
That was Wednesday night.
The game was supposed to start at 7:30pm,
but due to a severe thunderstorm,
the game was postponed until 10pm.
Didn't end until almost 1am!
But... wow! Are we glad we stayed!
Our team, while having the most
appearances at Grey Cup (the final)
and being third overall with wins,
has been floundering for the past
several years.
Our starting Quarterback has been playing poorly,
and was yanked in favour of the backup last game.
Half of our receiving corps and most of our defense
is injured.
Turns out (at least after two games) our back up is...
better than our first stringer.
At the end of the half, we were winning 34-0.
Final score was 37-11.
Sad news, my laptop finally crapped out.
It's actually running again, but not until
after a complete system reboot.
So... it's like new... with practically nothing on it.
Luckily, most of my files were already backed up.
Good news... I got a new laptop.
But I'm still setting it up.
So that's where part of the time went.
And then there was last night.
It was my parent's 60th wedding anniversary.
I didn't really want to do anything special
other than maybe a nice meal,
but my sister wanted to celebrate.
Mom wanted something small.
Dad wanted something big.
So we wound up having a nice meal
with 16 total guests (everyone incl.)
It was a nice evening.
So that's pretty much where I was
the last little bit.
