Present. Flying down to Austin this long weekend to visit my gf, who's in grad school at UT. Hopefully it will be 2-3 degrees cooler than when I was there at the beginning of July...

Here, and looking forward to a slightly less hectic fall. Work is finally slowing down to a merely busy pace, girls are back in school (which they love) and today I am kegging 2 batches of beer, because I need the room to brew more.

Rumor has it you might need some grass seed. I'm might be tempted to barter for some homebrew...

Painfully here...fell down onto my L elbow and broke off two bone chips in the socket area while popping the elbow out of/back into joint back on Monday. PERCOSET and a crappy splint 'til next Tuesday when the Doc will see me again to determine if he should do anything more or just "put me down"...

I'm here. Made it through another summer. It still gets hot during the day but the nights are starting to cool off. No kids left to put in school but I do enjoy driving (very, very, slowly) by the university to see the pretty girls walk by.

I'm still here, even if not as much as I formerly was.

Oh man! I did that back in 2000. I was in a cast for 8 weeks and I still have a bone chip floating around. The Doc said that operating on it was too risky so I have to live with it. Once in a while it likes to rest for a bit on the nerve and my right arm looks like I have Parkinsons!
Hope you get over this better than I have!

Well the hospital F***ed us and now she is working today and Monday!
I guess I flew back early so I could wash the car and cut the grass
My nice three day vacation with her just became much shorter! After this weekend it will be another 21 days until I get back to see her again! Yeah the 18th is now out too!

Sorry for the rant...
