a personal blog with nerdy bits thrown in

Freelance, etc.

Spent the week working my butt off trying to finish up all my freelance projects. Nearly done (I hope) and once I’m done with that nonsense I can finish all the yard work I need to get done before our trip to the UK. If at all possible I will have a few days to sleep in, and spend the day on the sofa watching Perry Mason. 🙂

I’ve received a two phone calls from my brother and his wife since they’ve been in Europe. They’re doing pretty well though they already seemed a bit frazzled (after only a week and a half). Apparently Athens is a bit of an odd spot, quasi "third-world" in some ways, but nice. They spent a few nights on the island of Mykonos, and the weather wasn’t great. By now I think they’re either in Pompeii or Rome. While the southern part of Europe has never held too much sway with me, I do envy all the history they’re seeing. I would really like to see the Acropolis and Parthanon in Greece, and the Colosseum in Rome, and I curse both my brother and sister-in-law while I sit at my computer slaving away on freelance projects. *shakes fist*

Anyway, that’s it for now. More nonsense to come I’m sure. 🙂

    ‘Il Colosseo’ is every bit as impressive as you think it might be. We gotta ask them if there are still a bunch of feral cats hanging around.
    Pompeii was a pretty cool experience.

    Circus Maximus, however, is the worst circus ever. No elephants, clowns, or high-wire acts. Not even a big-top. Lame! 🙂
