I'm Writing, I'm Writing Again
I've been neglecting my blog so its time to crank out a decent post. I've wrapped this week's real gig column and actually have next week's about 75% complete. I'm going to take some of the crap I throw up here and use it to finish that one off. Regarding my real gig, my bro thinks that I don't let my cynical side show enough. In his wisdom, he advised: "Let DJ be DJ". I agree but I have concerns that my suburban readership may not fully appreciate the snarkmaster that is DJ.
I had mentioned in my column that I've been a bit under the weather, which allowed me to avoid one dull night with the numbers, TCG, and The Exec. Since I'm well again, I could not use that excuse to get out of dinner at #1's house Friday. However, he served some primo tri-tip and I was able to put my abstemious ways of the past couple weeks behind me with a couple finely crafted Vespers. In the spirit of village togetherness, the wife and I went to a tomato plant sale up at CSM, followed by a farmer's market visit, Saturday morning with #1 and spouse. I can imagine their conversation after they dropped us off at home, something along the lines of "I am really tired of those people".
Yes, it's been a busy weekend. I took SB2 for a swim yesterday afternoon. I saw him drifting towards a 12 year old kid a few times. The Jaws theme faintly started playing again but he then changed course. I'm sure the kid could have handled himself. It's the unsuspecting guppies I worry about. The rest of the day was rounded off with some Final Four hoops. I'm rooting for Butler tomorrow. Interestingly, their coach is exactly half the age of UConn's, 34 vs. 68.
Today started off with a trip to Costco. I hate Costco. But I got there before the opening bell and was only going to the tire center. They had three Bridgestones left and I needed four but they honored my coupon with Michelins. Doesn't that make your day?! Since they had just opened, I saw the clerk turn on the TV. I thought maybe we'd be treated to a televangelist or Meet The Press. That was not to be as the TV was apparently tuned to The Tire Channel. As I left, I encountered a middle-aged couple walking to their car. The lady's hair was an interesting shade of red. I felt like telling her that that is not a color normally found in nature, but then I didn't want her husband taking a poke at me.
Charlie Sheen's first live show last night bombed. Who's surprised?
