hey what's up?

I've been working hard at my job, and that's where I do the lion's share of my internetting, so there's the lack of posts.

Quick rundown:

Still crazy for Lost. Love this season!


Read the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. moderation, respect, golden rule. OK, thanks.








Now reading Guns, Germs, and Steel. Just getting started, but I like it. Gotta respeck the Jared Diamond.




Going to try to go camping/canoeing/fishing this weekend, but I have to get the trenching done in the backyard so that I can install a sprinkler system.

It's been a lot of renting stuff and digging in the backyard. I'm like a giant manchild when I rent equipment.





I got a demo saw (to cut concrete), a rototiller, and a stand-behind skid loader the other weekend and had a straight-up blast tearing up my backyard. I think I didn't quite get my fill of Tonka when I was younger.

Becky and I planted a bunch of flowers last weekend, just in time for a rain and then a freak snow storm. Nice. Horns of Grothar, it's freakin MAY! But still, it was nice to have Becky around and moving all by herself. She's been really sick, but getting better now.


Listening:
Hank Williams, Sr.; Woodie Guthrie; WIllie Nelson; Johnny Cash; Bob Dylan; Bruce Springsteen. I'm calling this my American Troubadour phase.


So that's about it. Happy wednesday, everyone!
