In case you missed it...
...I'm back from helping my brother drive his truck (and leftover stuff) back from Houston. A good time was had by all.

To those of you who missed me, no doubt you are relieved.

To those who were glad I was gone, I'm ready to torment you again.

To those who didn't even realize I wasn't around, nyah.

ChuckD, sorry we didn't get together for the beer, but I just didn't have time, my brother had too much stuff planned for us to do.

Trip highlights:

XM Satellite radio is good.

Casino Rouge in Baton Rouge, LA, is bad.

Driving ~700 miles in a ragged-out Nissan truck is bad.

The women in Houston tend to dress sluttier than the women here in Huntsville. I think this is good. It's probably a survival thing for them; I also wore as little as I could get away with when I was there because it's so frickin' hot.

The original Dreamland in Tuscaloosa is good. It was distinctly strange to hear conversations in German there though.

Flying on small planes is bad.

Coming home is good.

If they ever built a casino around here, I can guarantee it'd be seriously ROUGE.

and you're from where, Tilt?


They are a dime-a-dozen here. The food is really great usually and cheap. The best place in town to get eggs benedict is the Rocky Mountain Grill/Uncle Buck's Casino. Best buy in town at under $4.00 (I think, I didn't pay for it;) first time I'd had Eggs Benedict. It was good, makes the sauce from scratch!

No casinos here in Georgia, but when the payout for the lottery gets huge the line outside the 7-11 goes around the block!

Hi Bitpusher!
{{{{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}}}
I need your current e-mail address my dear? I wasn't sure if you use the one on your TT profile regularly? I have some info for you and won't clog up the board here with it. Glad you are back safely having had some fun.

Hey danababy! Yes, I still use the email in my profile, but when you send me email, be sure to put "Trail Talk" or "bitpusher" in the subject line, otherwise it will probably be deleted.

Heck no, not jealous. Everyone should have a love of their life. That's awesome, BM!

So is Dani a woman?

I started on the 23rd. Supposedly they gave me some anti-nausea drugs via IV but I messed up the lawn of a really nice row house 3 blocks from the hospital. :)

Hmmmm, I am really out of the loop. For a while there I was barely on TrailTalk. I think I missed some crucial information. It's nice to see your appearance here again. And I hope you are feeling healthy again soon.

Ruby, check the "sickly" thread. Hodgkins lymphoma, I believe.

I am really truly very happy that you are back, especially when you are dealing with that. A little levity can't hurt. And I am doubly happy for you that you have Dani. I'm sure she is a great support for you.
Ruby

Thanks Ruby. Maintaining my sense of humor is as important as the drugs. And Dani has been a life saver for me.

I'm gonna try. The only problem is I can't check out Porn. I mean I could, but it might be bad for Dani. Got to get me one of these contraptions.
