I go to Mexico and it’s sunny and 70 in KC;\u00a0 I come back and they predict the first snow of the year.\u00a0 What can ya’ do.\u00a0 Entertainment was precious thin this weekend, if not non-existent.\u00a0 Matter of fact, I just might go with the “one paragraph” update here, and sprinkle in a few more throughout the week.\u00a0 ** GASP **\u00a0 That’s how I roll.\u00a0 Because, while the weekend was rather dead, I do have a few exciting items lined up for the week.\u00a0 That is including, but not limited to, making a pot of mussels this Wednesday.\u00a0 Exciting is a relative term, people.\u00a0 Anyway, Friday night we went to happy hour, mostly just for the sake of happy hour.\u00a0 Bleh.\u00a0 Lasted an hour or so, then got hungry and went to Cantina del Ray for dinner.\u00a0 It was solid as always, although I sort of wonder how long they are going to stay open.\u00a0 They’ve been pretty empty the last several times we’ve been there, and they sure aren’t gonna stay open off our $12 dinner tabs.\u00a0 There was a stretch after the KC Star gave them a good review when you couldn’t even get seated, but I guess people have moved on to the next “spot of the moment.”\u00a0 Saturday I worked all day.\u00a0 So went Saturday.\u00a0 Sunday I took Donette to the airport, where she was flying to Vegas to try and win me an early retirement.\u00a0 Since it’s a forgone conclusion that she is going to win at least $10k or so, I stopped by Costco on the way home and picked up a new camera.\u00a0 After hours and hours of reading and researching on endless online sites, I went with the first one I ran into at the store, which happened to be a Canon T1i<\/a>.\u00a0 My only regret (so far) is that we perhaps should have bought it before<\/em> going to Mexico.\u00a0 Oh well.\u00a0 After Donette gets rich in Vegas we’ll just take another trip.\u00a0 (Speaking of Mexico and cameras, I did put up some pictures<\/a>.)\u00a0 The rest of the day was essentially rained out.\u00a0 I read camera manuals, watched boring football games (except that night game, that was rather exciting,) and surfed the ‘Net.\u00a0 And looked for mussel recipes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
