Been puttering around the house, installing a new electrical outlet, touching up some paint, hanging some pictures, etc. I was going to wire some new wall sconces in the living room, but I've decided to put it off until next weekend when She is at work and isn't home to grumble about what I'm doing to her new paint. In a bit we're off to Macy's to exchange some pants, because I'm fatter than the wife thinks, and then off to the 'rent's place for dinner.

It took a bit, but I decided that today would be about beer.  |

I don't play golf anymore. Well, maybe I do sort of. I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.

Not overmuch. On the way home from church, Dad and I were talking about what a nice day it would be for ice fishing, however, that's not in today's plans.
Maybe some reading or crocheting this afternoon.

Hey PB, in Australia you would be called a garbo instead of a trashman. The garbo's do really well here around Christmas time, as everybody leaves a six-pack of beer on top on their bin for their local garbo.  |

Great Googly Moogly, don't know as what I could finish the route. I'd have to finish every bloody beer as the regulations wouldn't permit the beer in the truck...  |

I have been trying to move beds around. I can't get the queen size bed out of the spare room, it is stuck. I will have to wait until Russell gets home.  |

But a great party it was! A latent Mardi Gras shindig - rented a hall, everyone had costumes, open bar, band, etc. And some of the costumes were great. Bill and Hillary were there (they did a really nice job - looked the parts), one of my buddies wore a great Cardinal outfit (he actually looked pious, and believe me - that he aint ), my buddies wife was kind of a forest pixie and her form fitting costume was very pleasing to the eye , we had Gary Sinese as the Riddler (a great costume, but even without it the guy was a dead ringer for Sinese), a female chain gang, gwen stefani, a geisha girl that was absolutely beautiful, pee wee herman, 'mark antony' and cleopatra (he kept telling me he was 'ceasar' and I kept telling him that mark antony was the one with cleopatra, so I have made the adjustment for him  ), a small group of trannies, zorro, and several others - but these were the really good ones. What were the trannies dressed as? |

What were the trannies dressed as? Men. Its hard for men dressed as women to then look like men again - but they pulled it off. Put on the makeup then hide it under fake stubble, wear the fake breasts then wrap them to conceal - things like that. |
