Same here, but I'm up anyway.

Happy Father's Day all! (Even if your children are the furry kind.)

I baked cookies for my dad last night, and we're going to go visit him here in a few. It's a two hour drive, but it looks like a beautiful day. I just hope no roads between here and there are washed out yet.

oh hello. Happy Fathers day to all those who spawned.

busy weekend, but fun. I'll be heading out to my folks house in an hour and 1/2 or so, to spend some quality time with me paps. ( a couple of beers in the sun). I will be back in time to spin some punk & jazz this evenin for anyone in the mood.

friday night was a good night, no rain, and I found an excellent price on a beef tenderloin. it HAD to be weighed and labeled wrong! It said it was 1 lb 6 oz and cost $9.81. I swear it must have been 2 1/2 pounds. it was too huge. So we grilled that up with some asparagus, small bagets, and a nice wine. Then watched the best of Will Farrell and a video on Otis Redding.

Saturday we went to the Grecian Fest at a church not far from here, right by where Squonk lives. It was pouring rain, but most of the outdoor part of the fest was under a big tent anyhow, so no worries. The shis kebobs, saganoki (sic?) and qyros and baklava where really really yummy. Much better than at the big Greek Fest held at State fair. I think these people could focus on quality because it wasn't really all that crowded. you could walk around the back side and see all the chickens roasting on a spit over the hot coals. Might get one of the chickens to go tonight to make sammiches or wraps early this week.

I think I figured out what my problem is.

I just kept feeling worse and worse. I sat down and started eating lunch and I felt like I was gonna throw up. I suddenly got really dizzy and just about fell down getting to the bathroom. My head was pounding and I was still cold so I took my temp ... 103.5.

I took some Tylenol and have been laying here with cold wash cloths on my head for the last three hours and I'm back down to 101 now and feeling considerably better. The difference between 101 and 103 is huge in how one feels.

Thinking back to this morning and some early intestinal issues, I'm quite certain that I having a bout of toxic shock or have gone "septic".

I'm back to where I feel like I want to live.

holy cow web! what happened??

I hope things have stabalized on all accounts! thats no way to spend yer fathers day

that sounds like a good fathers day sandy.

I was at my folks house. it was fun to hang out with my folks today, and my bro, wife and their 2 kids came over & we all had dinner. myles is 4 yrs old, and simon is 14 months. and simon is only 4 pounds lighter than myles. this kid is a tank, but way way funny and fun. he doesn't ask to go UPPY or anthing, he just starts climbin up on people and tables. too funny.

I love my nephews, but at a certain point I think their folks start lookin for uncle jd to be the baby-siter for the day, and well thats good for awhile, but they aint my kids. you did the deed, now you do your job. uncle jd needs a beer.

a classic family situation....

Wow, your dad had a great Father's Day, G-gal!!  He conned you into cooking for him.   


When I first moved out on my own, I invited my mom and dad over for a bar-b-que on Father's Day.  Only thing.....I didn't own a grill or charcoal, and I didn't know the first thing about how you go about grilling anything.  My dad had to stop and pick up a small grill and stuff from the store, then he had to cook his own dinner.    I sure had a good time!!

 That's it, I'm sending you over there to do all the grilling next time.

Yeah, but dad has some work to do on the pool yet. And he might want to haul you off to go look at all his old records.

Thanks for another great evening of music, JD!!! 

Hope you enjoy the rest of your evening.
