Odds n Ends

IPK, blown away. Ian just does not give us a chance to win when he pitches, and that is so unfortunate. Any minute now, Melanie is sure to pop in and remind us that we are now in the cellar. Not for long, mon cherie, not for long....

Guess what? The estimable CMWang and Mike Mussina are now tied for the lead in wins on the Yankees [six apiece]. Who'da thought?

Let's see: what else?

Kev's coming to VB to live. Lots of nice restaurants to cook in. Got some classes to go before getting his AS in Culinary Arts, but I'll keep after him on that front.

Sad to see dear Anastasiya depart Daruma of Japan. What a nice girl, and I'll miss her.

Smiley's off to San Fran for vacation! Hope to see some nice photos when she returns.

Matt's back from sea after three weeks. Lotsa good $$$, so he's happy about that.

Bobby quit in a huff, and Dale quit to go repair helicopters for Blackwater in Jalalabad. We're in a hiring freeze, and with Lori gone to the other site, we're skating at least triple short-handed! I still love my job, though. Too bad MJo turned us down; at least I'd get to see her occasionally. When she caught on elsewhere, I was free to not-date her [twice!] and we had a good time. Then, something came up, and we'll talk l8r. Knowing how her boyfirend of the winter months kept getting underfoot [and wanting to talk!!], I am giving her space [except I texted her "Happy Mother's Day" and have gotten no reply]. No worries - tomorrow's Friday! :-)

I gotta take Big Casper to the truck doctor Saturday :-( Remember when cars had ignition points? He's running sometimes like he has bad points [I know, electronic ignition, but that's the symptomology]. Sure hope it is not the timing chain! =:-0. This is screwing up my weekend... Pam is in DC, and there's a Pirate Festival in Spotsylvania. Maybe if they get him running right early enough, I may go up and spend some time with sis, and then crash for a bit, go to the Pirate Fest on Sunday, then back here. Then again, tomorrow is Friday, and just maybe, Riki and I will hit it off famously.... Time will tell. Wish me luck!
