The Marathon

Today was my first day off since a week ago last Monday.

I'm not actually complaining about pulling the ten day marathon, I actually kinda dig it. I hadn't pulled a stretch like this since I lived in Missouri all those many years ago. There's something cleansing about ten on/four off stint, like I told The Captain yesterday- the sense of continuity is amazing. I have a completely different view of The Minuteman after spending so much time there this past week and a half.

The best part of this stunt when I was in Missouri is that they opened a four day weekend for me to drive the five hours to The Minny to see my peeps and eventually spend some quality time with Nena. This time, the weather has killed off a road trip to Chicago so all we have is LilZee's Bday party tomorrow, Da Bears on Sunday and recovery on Monday. Yup, should be a good time.

Today, today was pretty sweet. Ran a bunch of errands,got Beto his first oil change...then, the package came.

Nena ordered me two pizzas from Lou Malnati's and had them UPSed to the house. That's right, this Sunday we'll be watching Da Bears in Santa Fe with Lou. Seriously, I have the best wife ever. EVER.
