So Long, Farewell, Au Weidersen, Goodbye....

Wouldn't you know it? I'm leaving tomorrow. I get a call around quitting time yesterday from an existing client - he has a project for me. Great! I'm happy to oblige, but it really must wait a week. There's the project I was hoping would be waiting when I return. Amen.

Spent a very long day at the computer yesterday, sitting down around 7:30 and getting up sometime after 5. I decompressed by making my smoked gouda risotto and whipping up a pitcher of sangria. About a glass and a half in, I was relaxed and laughing with the family. Then we spent the evening right in front of this monitor - until 11 - arranging our flight to Scotland. So today, I'm spent.

I won't be leaving behind a trail of posts to keep you guys company while I'm gone. There was too much to accomplish this week for that. If I get time today, I'll put something together. If not, I apologize. But I hope you'll come back on the 20th. I'll be here, hopefully refreshed, definitely filled with fish tales.

Meantime, I leave you with this video, which I hope will make you smile. Have a great weekend and I'll see you in a week!
