1 Happy St

Rest, relaxation and.... No wait. I guess there's just two R's. (Which makes me wonder, why do they call reading, writing and arithmetic the three R's? Only one of them actually starts with R. It's no wonder our public school system is in the shape its in.)

Anyway, I'm off on what we in the business call a hiatus (and by "business" I mean "Hollywood" and by "we" I mean "they"). 12 days of fun in the scorching heat of sunny Florida, USA. I'll bring you all back a snowglobe.

While I'm gone, my college roommate Carl will be housesitting for me. He won't actually be posting here but he will be picking up my mail and making sure the newspapers don't pile up on my driveway. If anyone wants to meet him, it should be easy to tell when he's at my house because he drives a big moving van. (I could really tell you some stories about the road trips and adventures we used to have with that moving van but I'll save that for a future blog entry.) He usually hangs out with two other guys who's names escape me right now, but I think they have skin conditions because whenever I see them, they're wearing ski-masks and gloves. Anyway, while I'm gone, Carl is going to be taking some of my furniture to be reappolstered and he's even taking my big screen TV to be repaired. Isn't he a great guy? He and his friends should have no problem moving them so don't bother asking them if you can help. Believe me, I've tried to volunteer to help them before and they're rather insistant that they can manage. But, if you want to go over and lend moral support, Carl said they'd be at my house "during broad daylight" (which I found to be a rather odd choice of words but that's Carl for you).

I'll see you all when I return.

P.S. Is anyone available to drive me to the airport?
