September 28, 2012

I'm fighting with a Washington bureaucrat today and she is making me crazy. It's like I'm talking to a brick wall and trying to get thru to her. She has no concept of reality and practical application of laws, regulations and policies. She just wants to make up things as she goes along. Actually, that isn't too bad of an idea. I'd like to do that sometime. Make up my own rules as I go along and then have the ability to get away with it. What the heck was I thinking??? I could be there doing as I please versus here having to follow rules. Oh silly me!!!

Wow! I could see my breath in the air this morning as I waited for my morning train. And all that I could think of was "Wow!". It seems a bit early yet to see this. I still think we'll have an Indian summer hit us fairly soon; but we'll see that white stuff soon enough. I'm just hoping that it waits until after Veterans Day for that to start flying.

Welcome to Autumn

September 23, 2012

Brrrr. It was a brisk 33*F ... or a .5*C for the rest of you ... this morning when I managed to crawl out of bed. It's too early to turn on the furnace, so I turned on the fireplace instead. It took the edge off of the cool feeling in the house. I'm glad I got my one chore done yesterday. Now, if I can manage to get the other chore done before it's really cold then I'll be doing well this year.

Mother Nature is putting me on notice as to what I can expect soon enough. It was also a brisk 41F when I woke up. That's a cool 5C for the rest of the world. It's a comfort food day for supper; so I have a pork loin in a marinade since last evening. It was wonderful cutting some fresh rosemary for the marinade. It smelled so nice after I washed it. It's nothing like I was getting at the market. Now I just have to so what I can save of my herbs in my garden before it frosts.

I'm on cruise control at this time. This end of fiscal year effort is killing me like no other has in the past. But it is what it is and I think I'll continue to ignore senior management at this time. They're bouncing around like a bunch of African monkeys up a tree who are yelling and screaming cuz there's lions down there who are gonna eat them. Is it better to be a monkey or a lion??? I choose to be a lion and to watch the show. It's amusing anywho to watch them act like a bunch of jackasses.

I'm not sure if anyone at all even reads these things other than my one friend that I could strangle at times. UGH! But I guess it is what it is. But since I don't believe a whole lotta people are viewing this, I think I'll just be writing to myself on here from this point forward.
