I throw the empty bottles against the fireplace and clean up the mess before Honeybun comes home.

Just wash the pig tracks off the ceiling before she gets back!

Don't get too excited, Dan, for me that means Racing movies, ww2 movies and such. Probably no porno. Certainly no ....never mind!

Tom: Now you're talking! You are in my neck of the woods. Well sort of...
since I'm now 40 miles south of Cincy. Still, not a bad trip.

Just kidding.

I did that last summer for a week, the truth is after a couple days I was bored as hell and could not wait for their return.

Me too, Tom. My wife kindly made me a big-a$$ bowl of chicken salad, so I have had, oh, four of those sandwiches the past two days, and a PB&J for breakfast today. I think there's some leftover pizza in the 'fridge that will probably be dinner tonight. Since she's gone, I can pull the rotors on her Saab and see if they can be turned. M.O. -- let the house go to hell all week, spend Friday furiously cleaning before she gets back.

Oh yeah; I can watch all the baseball I want this week, too. And I'll never turn the TV on and find that it was left on "HGTV" when last used.

I really start missing the kids after about a day of business travel, 3-5 days is tough. I've never been in the house alone but I think a day or two flying solo might not be too shabby.

I just spent a few days short of a month away from my wife and daughter. Longest my wife and I have been apart in 32 years. I survived but it was too long. I assume they watched women movies and kept the house clean.

I've never experienced that. It must be eerie!
