on/off button for our sleep!
The day is coming, rest assured. I recently listened to a radio broadcast where a man had a chip implanted in his ass that controls his bowel movements
and penis leakage.
Yeah, I was in disbelief, too.
Calorie-wise, It more than likely was over my daily allotment but not decadently.
5 bones (half rack) of BBQ ribs, 8 hot wings, 1 baked tater and a tiny side of BBQ baked beans. I guess this could be a 2000 cal. meal - tops, tho.
A point of interest: When we arrived, we thought the place was closed because there were only a handful of cars in the parking lot. As history has shown us, this place is usually a 20-40 minute wait without reservations (which we made just because) on Sunday afternoon. Only 3 other couples were there at 1pm and no family clusters at all.
Of course, I have to smoke outside and while enjoying a Marlboro, the manager came out for one, also. I asked him how far off business was and he replied sales were off 70% in 2009. He further stated that one, maybe two more months was about all the longer the owner was planning on toughing it out before he locks the doors.
Our bill for 11 was 330.00 (tip included), the manager announced he took 20% off total food bill in an attempt to lure us back - hopefully very, very soon. I guess in the business mind if the day is already fucked, you might as well dip a little lower in the hopes of winning over rapid loyal clientele turnaround.

The last 24 hours have been evil. I was already off-kilter trying to seek schedule normalcy only to be awoken to the sound of rushing water. My water meter apparently blew up. So, I had to go shut the water off and fetch a new meter and install that. It didn't help we just set March low temp records the last two days

(more than likely that's why the meter committed suicide)
I spent the last 6 hours reformatting my pc. I do this every few months. I think I'm now convinced that before the Year of Our Lord 2009 ends, I'm investing in a congo-sized external or flash drive. I just have way too much music and pics and stuff. Reformatting has turned into a preparatory hassle bigger than the hassle it normally is.
I found a very cool site that swaps iTunes to Window Media Player. I hope to get busy with that here soon. I already ate my supper for the day (at 3:30pm which is rare) because I just had the urge. I really have no wiggle room for the day now. I hope to stay steady with only a bag of popcorn or catabolic snacks until tomorrow. I feel so tired eating this early. It's almost like my body feels at 2:00am. I hate it more this is day two without a walk or any other form of exercise.
Counting the days to sunshine and warmth, here.
