Flew in from a short trip to Dallas late last night. It started sleeting and then snowing about 4:00 p.m. Thursday night, and the airport acts like it's never seen snow. Takes them 2 hours to de-ice the plane. At least I was comfortable ensconsed in first class throwing back three (3) Beefeaters and tonic.

When we finally touched down in Denver, I had missed my connecting flight. Every flight was backed up, full, and wait-listed. However, I pulled rank and bumped someone off the last flight from Denver to LAX.

Knowing that my wife was going to pick me up, I decided to finish off the evening and ordered a double Scotch (Dewer's) on the rocks.

Woke up late this morning with a splitting headeach, decided I wasn't going to work, and drove into Pasadena to The Container Store and ordered some more shelving for the right-hand side garage wall.

Will install it tomorrow and then get a haircut.
