Your day in a nutshell. Share please.

[Nausea]

Ahh, a full day. How much sweeter is the drink, as a reward at the end.

[Merchant Seaman]

Logged about 400 miles driving on Saturday. Finally reached my destination, then made with thirsty haste to the clubhouse near my cabin. The special was prime rib sandwich with choice of fries, onion rings or baked potato. Ordered 4 Long Island Tea with dinner and, quite remarkably, the bill came to only $40 and some change (plus tip, of course). Tacked on a Jameson double for dessert and sat out on the patio for a smoke in the sun and the breeze off the lake watching drunk golfers make their drives for the 9th hole.

Worked most of Sunday installing garage doors on a 60 x 40’ pole building, which didn’t really seem like work given the endless supply of beer and ham sandwiches. Then did the "lather, rinse, repeat" at the clubhouse with however many Makers lemonades I ended up drinking.

For whatever reason, my stomach hasn’t been fucking with me lately and I seem fairly resilient to hangovers. Going to push my luck again tonight at the bar. Will give a full damage report tomorrow.

I'll stay tuned

Just realized I've been on here for more than 18 years. The board was brand-new and I was so new to the internet I did not know you needed to register and pick a name and all that. Porrick and Franken and ? maybe Dave helped me out. Barca was the resident grumpy old man. I went to the first convention and had a great time, but the old man I'm married to refused to ever go to another. (Everyone send Grumpy a smack aside the head for me, please)

So many dear people have died. RIP my brother. Tony, I hope heaven is full of puppies. Liz, I was so looking forward to meeting you in person. Still have the Cinderella shoes in size extra tiny. Etc. I'm leaving now. Until I remember more dead people. I just can't...

Was supposed to sail from Long Beach at 0400, so we left the dock promptly at 0530, and took departure at 0700, last trip we burned 2419.8 tons of heavy fuel oil, but then Sunday we took on 2500 tons of HFO.

Today was hump day. And it sure did hump. But at least it was a steady hump, not an ass draging hump.
