Day 135: BBQ Fest
(This entry originally posted Friday at The Memphis Blog) The World Championship Barbecue Cooking contest is heating up in every literal way possible. I moseyed down there for lunch today to visit my friend and co-worker Mike (below, at right), CA plateroom/prepress man and the brains behind Sow Luau, and sweated buckets in the sun. But it’s a beautiful day so I can’t complain too much. I got some free food (a hamburger, a hot…

Day 134: Poof
Shot this right before leaving for work and when I got home, I noticed that the rain had taken the white poof with it. Insert trite observation about time changing everything here. I was in a slightly better mood today. Slightly. It’s sort of sinking in that the status quo is unsustainable and things are changing so I best change with them or get left running behind the bus, choking on gravel and grit. It…

Tonight I came home and mixed a drink so strong it made Ted Kennedy weep. With pride. [Project 365]

Day 132: Blur
I don’t even know how to keep up anymore. And they say the ride just keeps spinning faster and faster the longer it goes. I had one of those moments tonight where I let some bit of the news get to me, stop me with a screech, hold my jaw tight in its hands until I paid attention and processed it and it made me feel sick. I read the pilots’ transcript from the Continental…

Day 131: Special Delivery
Sophie (Jack and Sally’s mom) had a litter back in March and they’ve been living in the basement at my parents’ house. My dad can only handle so many animals in the house at one time, and four kittens on top of two cats and three dogs is four kittens too many. (Maybe they will finally get Sophie spayed now. Although, if I were a betting man, I’d bet that he will be completely attached…

Day 130: Mom and Charlie
Mother’s Day this year entailed a giant box of fried chicken (fifty pieces!) and me sipping on sugary homemade margaritas and watching cable on a big-screen TV for nine hours. I gave my mom a couple of mom-and-daughter-themed books and she was so touched that, the next day, she went and got two huge pink peonies out of the flower bed and brought them in while serenading me with “You Are So Beautiful.” She’s the…

Day 129: Bangs
Got my hair did. Like everything else in life, I like parts but I’m not crazy about the whole. I want to do surgery on it but I’ve been urged to leave it alone. I just want a great haircut for once. Not a this-is-okay-but-I-don’t-like-it-enough-to-do-anything-but-grow-it-right-back-out-the-way-it-was-before cut. Middle class woes, aren’t they fun? Saw the Star Trek movie today before work. It’s very bromantic and full of very attractive people and lens flares. Jesus, with the…

Day 128: Peonies
Donna at work grew these and then started bringing them in by the truckload. They are gorgeous. [Project 365]
