I spend most of the day working on a lot of online and paper catalog corrections at work today, keeping me busy enough that the day was over before I knew it. Nice day.

Gas prices are still drifting downward, with an 8 cent drop just in the last week, now at $1.93 a gallon.

My new HDMI cable came in today to replace the flakey one that connects between our Direct TV DVR and our Samsung TV.

I got the heavy duty, gold-plated one so I hope it will last longer that the old one.

One of our reader’s commented that the Grimaldi’s in Tucson that I mentioned a couple of days ago was closed when they tried to visit recently.

Turns out they closed right after Thanksgiving because they lost their lease. Or as the article says, they failed to negotiable a new one. Which probably means that the landlord jacked up the rent more than they were willing to pay.

Which must have been a lot since the location was one of the most popular ones in Arizona. They say they will be reopening at the new location sometime late next year.




About 5:15 Jan and I drove over to the La Brisa Mexican Restaurant  on 146 in Bacliff to meet up with blog reader’s Jan and Dale. They’re staying at an RV park down in La Marque and wanted to get together to meet.

We had a great time, great food, and hopefully we’ll be able to to it again soon.

Karma hasn’t had an update recently so here she is.

Karma New

For a half feral stray, she’s turned out to be a pretty good kitty.




The Word of the Day is:  Terpsichorean


Thought for the Day:

Everything happens for a reason. But sometimes the reason is that you’re stupid and make bad decisions.
