Peek-a-boo

[greatbear]

Bless me LJ for it's been nearly a month since I posted anything.

I have been busy with but also having fun (mostly) with the typical spring goings-on that happen here. Car work, redoing the vegetable garden, enjoying the fresh air, that sort of thing. It's been refreshing to finally shake off the 'hibernation'.

While I have not been doing much to my blog lately, I still have been thinking about it as I read the news, listen to music or see/hear something interesting. I figure those items would make good blog entries, so I jot them down as files on my ever-present USB drive. Tonight, I cannot find the drive anywhere, so I assume (hope) it's still poking out of the work PC. I'll find out tomorrow.

Been making the folks at Snap-On, Summit Racing and various MINI suppliers considerably richer lately. A month from now, it's my annual trek to NC/TN and the Tail Of The Dragon along with over 500 (!) other Mini Cooper owners. This time, Jeff and Bear the Pomzilla will come along for the ride. Methinks Jeff is not gonna ride along during very many of my gonzo runs. I'll bring a barf bag just in case.

Speaking about little Bear, earlier in the week he had his doodads removed. He's 6 months old already. While a part of me knows it's the right thing to do, another part of me feels bad about taking away his 'manhood'. He's still moping, of course, and something tells me he's not too happy with us right now.

Finally, about this whole LJ thing. While I do miss posting stuff in a way, it has felt good to take a break. I've been reading everyone else when I can, and occasionally commenting. Ironically, I picked up a few new readers during my absence. Not sure how to take that. Am I more interesting if I just STFU? :) Granted, I did lose some folks as well. I expected to lose more than I did, after all, why hang around reading a neglected blog? Anyhow, greetings to those few who've decided to hang out here. Perhaps there will be more action around here then there has been lately. I hope you enjoy. And please, introduce yourselves.

Cheers.

After Cat got his "doodads" removed, we had a beast of a time ever getting him into the car again. We usually had to wrap him up in a towel like a feline mummy ....

Hi, I'm Richard

The forearms photo reached out and hypnotized me, before I knew what I was doing I added you as a friend and wrote this little hello. That grin is just not fair.

Greetings! Pay no attention to those forearms, they mean you no harm. ;)
