No weekend redux

I figure there's not much point in catching you guys up about my long weekend, basically because I didn't do shit. Mostly I got stormed on, actually, and contrary to my previous post, we actually did make into property damage levels when part of the fence in the front yard blew down. (Did I ever mention that this place literally has a white picket fence? This place literally has a white picket fence. Although, currently, a section is missing.) Other than that, some damaged plants, and a bit of water in the basement, things are basically none the worse for wear around here, if still soggy, so that's good. I spent most of my time just lazing around, really, doing whatever I could while holed up in the house and trying not to go especially crazy. I may or may not have succeeded.

Yesterday, Tuesday, I actually got some stuff done. I managed to haul myself into A.C. (which was an adventure in itself) and I am now officially registered for casino school. So, yay for that. My two-week intro course starts this Monday, so...that will be pretty interesting. My first regularly scheduled activity in years, I think. It's five hours a day for four days a week. I'm taking the afternoon course, so I'm actually not sure if these forced trips to A.C. will result in me spending more time at the casino or not. Normally it would, frankly, but the class gets out so late that it's basicall a schedule conflict with tending to the dog. So, we'll see. After I signed up for the class, though, I did make it to the Trop for a few hours, and it went very well, so I'm glad I went. I bought myself Chinese food to celebrate.

( Details, musings, etc. )

Okay, so something tells me I should wrap this up, so...I'm going to wrap this up. I've got things of small consequence queueing up, so I might throw out a fluff post later on today. In any case...party on, everybody. Smell ya later! (P.S. "Queueing" sure has a lot of vowels in a row, doesn't it?)

Three things out of nowhere

(1) MC Frontalot: "Did you notice that the ELMO'S POTTY TIME DVD is out? Although this sounds like the sort of information a frontalot.com news post might leverage towards a series of engaging and pithy lies, we instead announce this DVD's release in service a solemn truth: the rapper who, in the closing third of the program, leads aspiring young toilet users through their tour of the toilet paper factory is none other than our own MC. His Sesame Workshop debut makes a great gift for any youngster contemplating independence from diapers — and to be honest, none of us are so great at using the bathroom that we can't benefit from the occasional refresher course."

(2) There was a time in my life where I would have been really excited to buy this. In fact...who am I kidding; if I had money to burn, I'd probably be buying it right now. This is even despite the nigh-zero chance I have of getting a Champions game together. My love for looking at Champions stats is that great.

(3) Someday, we should get a group together and play We're All Going To Die. Anybody down?
