A pretty darned good Monday yesterday. Got the work I needed to get done finished relatively early in the afternoon, and then it was off to Town Hall Brewery for happy hour with Jim. Then over to the Viking Bar, where we were joined by my friend Scott, who was in town from California for the weekend, and his dad. We were planning to see Willie Murphy, but Willie’s apparently in Italy doing some shows, so John Beach and Cornbread Harris filled in on the keys. That ended up being just fine, since we got treated to a darned good jam session anyhow, and when I got home about 11, I was too wound up from the show to go to sleep. So I’m a bit tired this morning, but it’s a good tired. I’ve been out to see live music twice in the past week already, and have enjoyed myself a bunch both times. I wonder why I don’t do that more often.
Today, much like yesterday. Work to be done, and hopefully I’ll wrap things up early enough that I can do some non-work things this evening. Probably a quiet night at home, so I can get up and do it again tomorrow. This is the time of year when I usually plan to get extra-productive so I can slack off more during the summer, and I’m making a conscious effort to try to stick to that plan this year.
- John Hargrave is at it again. In The Credit Card Prank II, he finally manages to get someone to check the signature on the back of his credit card. You’ll be amazed what it took. [slashdot]
- The Saints add two, lose one, and the one they lost was Guye Senjem, who’s been sold to Brockton of the Northeast League. But looking at the news, they’re starting to put together a roster.
- Sigh. The NRA sabotages more pro-gun legislation. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, since they are the biggest gun-control organization in the country (if there were no gun cuntrol, there wouldn’t need to be the NRA), but I’m still disappointed. [claire]
