It's That Time Of Year Again...
07-15-2009, 02:06 PM
Peggy and I are off to the beach house on Long Beach Island for a week starting Saturday. It's the same house it's been for the last few years, within
walking distance of the "How You Brewin'" internet cafe, so I won't be completely disconnected from the Net. But my presence will be rather
diminished all the same.

Ah, good. Don't you just hate it when houses morph from year to year?

Let me rephrase that. We have rented the same place that we've gotten for the last few years. In fact, we're now renting both floors instead of just the lower apartment. Quote:If you get the CD I sent you last weekend, you'll have something to listen to...
Oh, right, yes, I've received it, thank you. I started opening it, got distracted, and since then it's been sitting half-opened on the desk in front of the monitor, taunting me with its unrevealed contents while other things occupy my time.

And I even put an "about these files.txt" file in the disc's root directory, so you wouldn't have to guess what's on it...

We're leaving in a couple hours -- basically as soon as Peg's mom and brothers are ready -- so I'm just ducking my head in for the last time for at
least a couple days. See you all later.

But if you don't bring the chips, what'll we have with my burgers?
(Also, there's cake.)

So, if you guys are eating pizza and burgers (and vapor-cake), then I guess you won't be wanting any of this gumbo...
