The last 72 hours have been so full of sheer terror, I really don't remember much of them.

That, and my friend Scott has been in town from DC to deal With Stuff. You all know that Stuff, right? You get to a certain age...and you got Stuff To Deal With. *nods sagely* Be one of the youngest of your generation, you get more of it than the rest.

Ghad, we grew up together, you want the truth. My middle name is probably taken from his mother - the folks were looking for something to fit the pattern, and they had the hurricane that went through Dade County that year...and needed something that began with E. Thanks for not naming me after Ellen, folks.

I've warned him not to fall over in shock when he hits State Street and Ramona Expressway going home today.

And yeah, I'll be meeting up with him Monday at Mom's house. Mom always knew my friends...and I'm the only one left with a Mom now. Wow. I hadn't done the math on that one until this morning. Ron and Dennis' Mom passed away from cancer years ago, even Whale's Mom is gone now...mine is hanging in there, perky as you could ask thanks a bunch. *sighs* Dumbass, don't forget the reunion stuff, the taiko CDs and anything else he needs.

If there was anyone who fit the description of 'old friends' - it's Scott. Who's like us? DAMN FEW.

I take him out to go drinking last night and the place is out of awesome. I AM REALLY MAD.

Have had no time to invite people over for BBQ tomorrow. You want, just ask. You probably can get.

3:00 PM.

OH. And work? I am so lucky, suckage all week be damned.

stuff?

I got 'stuff', I got an elderly Mom, so I got stuff. Stuff went with the depression children, lots of stuff. I got a house and a barn load of stuff. I'll be dealing with stuff all weekend. As for Hemet... the only saving grace is the I don't have to go there often. Was there at the DMV yesterday, remember that? Growing old places value on old friends. As you grow old there are fewer and fewer of them. Cherish the friends. Remeber the places as they once were. I'm rambling so I'll stop now. Guess I'm getting old.

Sorry you've had a scary 3 days!
I've been through the stuff. I don't like it much.
