wait what?
never mind... we are in the middle of this "huge storm" right now and boy is it letting me down. its not that i believed the hype about udder chaos and mass destruction of the evil winds and pelting rains, but i did hope for at least some serious amounts of rain... alas its a bit windy, the ground is getting wet and and our road has a negotiable amount of mud on it... perhaps I'll go for a quad ride later and see what there is to see...
a quick run down of where I've been? sure, since i was so sassy in my last post i should give you all a taste of a week in voices... you deserve it!
work has been better, the head honchos have been back to normal. that's nice.... although on Thursday we did temporarily layoff six guys... normally this time of year we would get some work from the state. the guys like this because they get "prevailing wages" and it adds up to a lot of money fast. we are not accepting state work this year because our company doesn't want any IOU'S from the governator. i don't blame them....
cheese and i are taking the girls out to south Lake Tahoe on Wednesday. I'm borrowing my dream truck from a buddy and we are loading up and going to the snow... this trip perfectly coincides with this storm from what I'm gathering... we are getting rain and its on 5 degrees there... hopefully there is massive amounts of fucking white stuff when we arrive!!! woo hooo!!!
*pauses writing for some fresh coffee in bed*
did the last of the wood splitting for the winter and cut down seven trees for next winter, one of these days while its raining I'll do a nice burn and some more fire clearance burning on the lower half of the yard... ooh ooh ohhh, my landlord has lowered the price of our house another two hundred thousand dollars!!! so if anybody was thinking of buying us this house it just got a whole lot cheaper... anybody? anybody? anybody? well just letting you all know...
*more yummy coffee in bed and rips a nice fart*
partied it up with cheese after her Friday shift at work, drove up the canyon and went to a friends house who cheese works with... hung out for a hour waiting for to her return, then started to leave and she showed up!!! brought her home, we all got drunk and she had her way with us....
heh heh....
yeah right, things never happen like that. not in the "real world" anyway....
Saturday some people showed up with mimosas and even though there was more osas happening earlier that morning than mims we managed to get that Friday night buzz to come round all over again.
heh heh...
Saturday was a hallmark holiday and we celebrated by lounging around the house playing games with the girls and later going out for a semi fancy diner. we have some friend who own one of the best places to eat in big sur and we frequented their establishment.
our plan for the past week was to go there and gobble down as many oysters as possible. we had called, made our reservations, let our friends know we wanted oysters and arrived three minutes early...
we were all a bit tired and ready to eat... food ordered, drinks half drunk when the first two plates of "lucky sevens" oysters were layed out in front of us. now i don't know how many six and ten year olds you all know that love seafood or oysters for that matter, but cheeses daughters gobble these things down like they were chocolate cookies and ice cream! we look down and mini cheese has slurped up five oysters in a minute and was reaching for another when i went for my first!!!
"um, so can i have one?!" i asked...
"hee hee hee..." was all she said.
so that was my week in voices.... its been busy, its been fun, its been a lot of work, but its always exciting!!! thanks to all who read here and check in. thanks to my commenters, new and old... enjoy yourselves as much as i would eh?!?!?

Always put down plastic if you're going eat Taco Hell in the car. They keep saying that Tahoe could get up to five feet of snow from this storm so you should be in luck... even if they only get half of that.
Those were definitely the best mimosas I've had in quite awhile. ;)
Hey Zack! Sounds fun. I've never even eaten an oyster myself, so I think kids who love 'em are super cool.
Hedgie loves eating squid tentacles, though she's never had an oyster.
don't run anyone over up there in tahoe - my brother is there with his wife and children...
oh lord, can you imagine??? well, I can...
Was it a fish taco?
Your life is so much more interesting than mine.
yeah, this storm was a real blue ball. They don't make storms like they used to...even since I've been here. Lame.
Sorry we didn't make it out yestereday...we got, de-motivated.
Thanks for your call last week...means a lot.
I'm sure we'll see you soon at S & E's...if you've got the mini cheeses, I'll bring the beaky pink poopers.
hi zack :)
bob!! we played wii tiger woods golf all day today and thought of you whilst i was kicking all their asses!!!
howve you been??
You knows how it goes, sometimes life sucks a little less than usual and that's all you can ask for. I went to Pebble Beach for the tournament on Saturday and it didn't rain, so at least I had that going for me.
Mmm... I can smell these beautiful mimosas... spring is arriving here -it's in the air, the snow has already melted away, we don't need our scarves anymore-
Glad to know you had a nice V-Day, including oysters!
How many did they let you eat? LOOOOL.
Sounds like a good week IV. Hope you enjoy your trip to Tahoe and the weather gives you all that you ask for. And thanks for stopping by and offering your support for Quincy dog. Have another good week.
sounds awesome! if i could figure out how to get to your place down a 'lesser travelled' path, i might visit one of these days when im in a road trippy mood (think 'richard nixon after a sleepless night spent reading penthouse variations and eating a whole box of twinkies)and show your ass how its really done.
(your 'gift' keeps on giving. the arborist gives it two thumbs up, a twist and a kiss!)
It is nice to see you back...glad you had fun this weekend. Love the recap...my vd consisted of vodka and Guitar Hero
DUDE! NEVER, I mean NEVER eat at Taco Bell if you are passed the age of 21. It's dangerous!!!
I ate taqueria del mar, monterey live fried goodness and a SHITLOAD (no pun intended) of Taco Bell the other night in town. I forgot about the Taco Bell until the next morning around 7am.
And 7:35.
And then at 8:15
And 8:29
The gift that keeps on...excuse me...
ANON... glad you are enjoying the bubbly!!
