Vacation count down.

Yes, I'm leaving this dreary state and heading south for a week. The tickets are purchased, the reservations are made at the friend's house and the preliminary request for cat care has been made and accepted. Details need some ironing. I think I'm even looking forward to it, though the thought of flying through Detroit makes my stomach churn. Still, the visit and the time away from this snow-bound tar pit may do me some good.

In other news, I set up another BLOG on this site. Don't bother looking for it as it's a watered down version of this one. I set it up for my family. Of course the only people who have even bothered to look at it (only once each, mind you) have been my mother and my first ex-wife. How disappointing. I actually thought my family was moderately interested in what I do on a day-to-day basis. I guess I thought too much of myself and although this is not a first for me, it doesn't happen very often.

Well folks, time for bed. I hope everyone has a great new year.
