There are good days and bad days. Yesterday was a GREAT day: hung out with Derek, recorded some interviews, got to tour his house [I love 1920's bungalows, and the Webbs live in one ... color me jealous!], and then got to eat at La Hacienda with him and Sandra. Just a fun day, which was capped off by our weekly Tuesday night gabfest-and-sometimes-movie gatherings at the Granades’ … but no movie, so we just talked. Well, they talked, and I drawled … and mimicked Larry the Cable Guy. [Badly.]

[So sue me, I'd had four hours of sleep and had driven 250 miles, after a weekend of non-stop travel and toting.]

Today, well, today sucked. Servers going haywire. Spam reports to handle [related to server exploits that I've been chasing all day :sigh:]. I’d been away from the office for almost a week, so I was playing catch-up the entire time. I just never felt like I was on-pace for anything today, but as I prepare to go to bed, I feel like I have a bit more of a handle on things.

And if nothing else, we’re going to Tim’s Cajun Kitchen for lunch tomorrow, just us guys. I’m still amused by the hivemind thing we had going … someone randomly brought up “bread pudding” in a conversation where Jeff had discussed this sugary treat his mom used to make with leftover mashed potatoes, and then … 30 seconds later, lunch at Tim’s was planned. Scary how we all twigged really, really hard to that.

[I don't care who you are ... that's funny raight dere, even if you don't know Larry the Cable Guy's oeuvre.]
