Vacation

In the American working tradition of working like a dog so you can spend one goddamned week not working like a dog, I had to bust my behind before leaving for vacation. In my haste, I forgot to put up the Gone Fishin' sign. I'll be frolicking on the beaches of North Carolina this week, soaking up as much sun as I can before the icy grip of winter crushes my heart this winter. I don't have a very large Intertube into the series of Intertubes, but I will probably put some posts up this week if I can get connected.

My only tale so far is that I got to play a Nintendo Wii for the first time. I never could have imagined moving your hands around like you're boxing or bowling could be so much fun. My marriage may be doomed. Unless I can get TLB to play the boxing game with me. That could be very therapeutic.

Regardless, the regular irregular blogging will resume next week. Hope you all can get outside and enjoy yourselves.

I can only dream about Wii. They are the best dreams.

Hope you have a great vacation. How will we know if the irregular blogging is the regular irregular, or is actually irregular? You've completely hoodwinked us!!!

Enjoy the vacation. If you get some couples boxing going, let me know your secret.

The good thing about Wii, The Brando Installation, is that there's a chance -- a tiny chance -- that we loyal readers may be relieved of stories about Guitar Hero.

On a more serious note, I think the effort involved in remote blogging can be strangely intriguing. It has been for me, anyway. The little hiccups that you deal with when you're out of your element can be instructive. So, I urge you to try.

As far as the cold weather goes: given the recent heat, how can you possibly be doing anything but craving some chill?
