You may address me as Sir El Spotto, as befits my status as a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Sealand (OMS), or you can just call me El Spotto. It ain’t that big a deal.

Don’t get me wrong, I cherish every moment I got to spend with my dearest friends this week, but I have to say a quiet night at the beach house with a beer and the Capitals is going to unwind this introvert a whole lot before I go back to work on Monday.

Anyhow, I had a burger and a beer, watched the Penguins play, and got in some MarioKart with friends today. The rest of whatever is going on is secondary.

This commentator speaking about the World Juniors (hockey) just said “you need to get it in and work their D”
And then asked another commentator what their strongest part was. She said “their back end”.
Thank you TSN.

And we suddenly went from 2 couples (and two kids) plus myself in this gigantic beach house to…me. That wasn’t the original plan.

Well that’s cool. One of the older kids who isn’t here isn’t here because she wanted to spend time with her friends before heading off to an internship at Disney. She seems stoked and will get the opportunity to learn marketing from an undeniably good marketing company.

Like just disembodied lips stuck in a grin and piled so deep and wide there are waves? This Life Tribe sounds kinda evil. I like em.

Anyhow, the lead genius when I got the genius job at Apple is one of my best friend’s kid’s rowing coach. He all but disappeared when he left Apple with the intention of solo through hiking the Appalachian trail southbound.
Apparently he made it as far as DC, visited fam and never continued.

I have apparently successfully woken up. Truly after that much good whiskey and good fellowship last night I would not have been surprised if the universe had ended this lap and recycled me for the next.
Now…where’s the headache pills and Gatorade, please?

That time in 1995 when Starbucks sold everything from mugs to tile coasters to coffee storage containers with this image on it.
Wish I still had that storage container. They sell for a pretty penny.

Van Gogh often set vibrant yellows against cooler backgrounds like blue-violet night skies.
The contrast creates a halo-like glow, as the bright yellows blaze against the darker tones.

This layer MFer friend of mine just broke out a bottle of bourbon from Bardstown you can buy retail. Apparently he has a “spirits concierge”
I felt like I was splurging on the $100 bottle of Hibiki Harmony I brought for the house. But damn is this 131° whiskey good.

The engineers of this house really messed up the water situation. There are three tankless water heaters and three floors. They are all on the top floor, back of house. That means my bottom floor, front of house room has tepid showers at best. Ideally they should be on each floor.
