is it monday already?

howdy all, i can't keep apologizing for missing days, so i 'll pre-apologize right now. done, and done.
had a bit of a busy weekend, i guess... just spent time with the rev until she had to go to work on saturday and then a good buddy, craig showed up from his latest adventures in computer fix-it land. he was in hollyweird for the last few days and had a few good stories to tell,.. ended up having a few too many drinks...as if there was such a thing!!! closed the bar metz 2, at 2am then went for last call at my other bar, the one horse saloon. my partner, t.k. niceley, was there and when we closed up at three we went over to his pad and had a few more....next thing we know the dang sun is coming up!! nice how time flys when you are with good people and telling good lies.
we slept for a few hours and missed church (brunch!) but we went and said howdy to the girls at the brunch joint anyway. they're a fun crew and are as glad to see us as we are them. great food at their joint, caribbean jack's, a good view of the river and marina and always some unusual people watching. it's been kinda sad for the folks in the service industy here in town this year and when we get to spend some tips on good service we enjoy it. they appreciate it, too, as do we, when they stop by our place. seems like that $10 dollar bill just keeps bouncing from bar to bar to bar........
the rev had her slowest night yet last night...just 2 people for a couple of hours at one point. she called and said that she'd cleaned all the bottles and glasses in the place, wiped the coolers out, stocked everything she could, and now what was she supposed to do?? i told her to read a bit, but she allowed as how she forgot her book on the bedside table, well, bummer, just then a local guy showed up and she was, at least, not all alone in the bar. the package store guy is there, too, but he's on his side of the store and she's on her's. like i said, it's been slow here, and if not for our locals, we'd all starve and be on the streets.
got a comment from GUYK over at CHARMING, JUST CHARMING this morning, thanks, GUYK! i wondered if you'd ever end up here and glad to see you. i always read your "bit of wit and shit". now all i gotta do is figure out how to link him and get his blog and all the others i read on my reading list.....i'm not too savvy on these dang 'puters, so it'll take me a bit to get it just right. hope the link works.....
off to work earlier this mornin', did some bit off whiskey ordering and such, got a bartender that's getting surgery on her shoulder in a couple of weeks, so need to find a fill-in for while she's away for the next 6-8 weeks. know any good, honest, likeable suspects? got a couple of nibbles, but if you know someone, send 'em to me.

tell 'em i'll look at their application and if the fit is right i'll call 'em and set an interview.
i suppose i need to clean the filter on the pool and get some bleach from the pool joint, maybe do some housework and get some dinner going for the rev, she's back in the pit at 6pm so i better get my trottin' harness on.
guess that's all for now, hope you all have a great day and i'll be back for more later.
