Finally was able to pair up a soap with its aftershave. This is unobtainium and I'm getting near the bottom of the tub. So I used what was left in the bowl again to use up more of the aftershave which seems to get used at a lower rate even with my KJesque application. The weekend was good a varied. Saturday was the Make-A-Wish reveal. The kid didn't even know we were coming so it was a total surprise. Pretty cool. And since that was up near the city, I took the opportunity to pick-up an order from K&L wine. We spent the morning on Saturday cutting up branches and filling the yard waste container and then Sunday morning I went and rented a chainsaw and spent an hour cutting down the trunks of the trees and chopping those and the bigger branches into bin-sized pieces for slow disposal in the yard waste. Once all that is gone, I'll start looking at prices for someone to come breakup and remove the concrete slab back there so I can lay pavers. But before that, I think next will be having the wife pick the colour she wants the front door (even thought I really like the red it is now) and repainting that because it's weathered through to the wood in a few spots.

Oops, let the ole journal slip again. Another good Drinks & Daves on Tuesday and we're already up to our 3rd annual Super Bowl commercial recap show next Tuesday. I'm hoping that this coming weekend the only excitement is the Super Bowl and the Olympics. The strike that is still going on here, is also happening in Southern California except their nurses are also on strike and 4 more unions just joined in, so they are having a rougher time. They are asking for volunteers up here to help remotely monitor things down there. I offered myself up for 4 hours on Saturday. I hope they don't take me up on it, but if they do, I'll be monitoring from the Nurse Dave Cigar Lounge, that's for sure!

"Monitoring" = maybe getting up off the barcalounger to refill the tumbler and/or empty the ash tray.
