And Mick anticipates his virtual Second Coming…

Winston slaves away, continuing the 12-hour day habit that has interfered with my blogging time for the past few weeks. It had been 24 12 x 7 until Monday, when I actually took a day off and stayed home for much needed R & R of Labor Day. Unfortunately, Roomie’s accumulated list of chores for me was enough to force me back to work on Tuesday to get rested up. There were two bright spots on Labor Day. First, the temperature was not over 100 as it had been for about 3 weeks — it was only 97. And secondly, I grilled to perfection, hers and mine — quite different objectives, a couple of filet mignon(s?) that turned out as outrageously delicious and tender as they were expensive. Then I capped the evening by annointing the sculptured area rug and my new chair with red wine (a nice little inexpensive Australian Shiraz by Yellow Tail) .

Until my return to daily spewing here, please visit the fine bloggers highlighted above or any of the ones from my sidebar. Soon…

    And Winston is a sweetie… Thank you, dear man.
    Hope your heavy work load does not last long.

    I hope things ease up for you soon Winston….pace yourself if at all possible. Hospital rooms are notoriously bad for computer hook-ups. Sending you hugs…

    What? So you think it’s easy holding down a day-job and hitting the Broadway stage at night? Talk about 24/7! Now stop reading this and get back to work! (Nice job on the rug, by the way.) :-)

    I understand the press of schedules, and I mourn with you for your rug and chair … (sadness) …, but this “dropping by” is to say “hi” and to let you know I’m still reading here. Don’t be gone any longer than you have to be. -mg

    Oh man, I feel your pain. Well, actually I don’t feel it cause I’m not working that hard. But if I could feel it, it would suck. Take a day, man…relax!

    Australian Shiraz made by Yellow Tail is always a treat, but the Yellow Tail Merlot is the perfect inexpensive wine as it has never given me a hangover.
    And I can drink some wine, I assure you. :)

    Winston, sounds to me as if you haven’t forgotten how to have a good time, despite the interruptions caused by that work thing. I mean, if I could grill a couple of filet mignons to perfection and spill some Yellow Tail shiraz on the carpet all in one evening, I’d have to say that must have been one hell of a party. :-)
