Yesterday's boat show took more out of me than I thought. I woke up this morning feeling like someone had taken a baseball bat to me in the middle of the night and I'm having a hard time concentrating at work. I really hope it's just allergies and I'm not getting sick. I took a Claratin so I'm hoping that'll do the trick.


Work is slow today and I'm fine with that. The cat was outside when Ian dropped me off and he proceed to yell at me because HE WAS OUTSIDE and DIDN'T I KNOW HE WANTED TO BE INSIDE 5 MINUTES AGO?! Ian commented, "No wonder you want to punt him across the room!"

In other news, my grandpa is doing fine after his surgery. My mom is going to Arizona today to visit and a few more relatives will be there later in the week. They have him up and moving around now and the incision site is healing nicely. Thank you all for your prayers and energy. We all appreciate it.

Not sure what plans are in store for the weekend. We will be going to By The Bottle today after work for their 2nd anniversary beer tasting. Should be fun.

And in completely unrelated news, I was listening to Weekend Edition before I opened the office and Scott Simon was interviewing Dame Shirley Bassey. She has a new album coming out and she does a cover of Pink's song "Get The Party Started." and a cover of "Big Spender." It's so fabulous and strange all at once that I must get this album.

I never post videos on my blog... but I have to. It's Dame Shirley.

We were driving home tonight after a beer tasting and I made Ian pull over so I could take this picture.
