Happy New Year! It’s the year of the dragon. Funny, seems like it was the year of the dragon just 12 years ago. It’s also “Blue Monday” – “scientifically” determined to be the most depressing day of the year. Whereas I have to work a 5-day week, and have the “support” duty, I can’t argue. <\/p>\n
It’s warm out this morning, and the dog is outside staring in the direction of the woods, and barking. I have no idea what he’s barking at. I think he’s doing the old dog equivalent of yelling “get off my lawn” at the coyotes, or something. Well, whatever makes him happy.<\/p>\n
I was rooting around unsuccessfully searching for my soldering iron yesterday (haven’t seen it since since we moved), because I need to fix on of my workshop speakers. While I didn’t find it, I rather enjoyed taking a trip down memory lane, looking at all the things I’ve absolutely had<\/em><\/strong> to buy over the years that became obsolete or otherwise useless about a week after I bought them. I tried not to calculate a dollar amount, though. <\/p>\n I also ran across a treasure trove of eye glasses, so that was cool. My current glasses are scratched, broken, or scratched and broken. <\/p>\n Happy Birthday to Richard Dean Anderson. Many think of him as McGyver, but to me he’ll always be Col. Jack O’Neill. <\/p>\n Oops, apparently I forgot to actually turn this on this morning. Though it doesn’t seem anybody would actually notice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy New Year! It’s the year of the dragon.
