Isn't that like third base or something?

I was working on my comic book thing last night which was why I was not hanging out here as late as usual. I ended up doing mostly photos (which he said were allowed) and writing, not many drawings. But I scanned all the stuff in and made it look somewhat nice on some matte photo paper (thicker stuff, like card stock) and even had time to do the 250 word commentary that I would not have done had I not checked the assignment sheet again.

I spent less time on that than some people spent on their rough drafts. ~7:00pm-1:30am and ~7:30-10:00am.

Downside is that there isn't a story. Just kind of some pictures put together to explain about what I like to do. And I realized that the wording doesn't flow very well but I had run out of time by then.

Plus I had to do EE homework before that. I did get 100% on the EE midterm though!

Yeah. It is the Cal Poly way. Procrastinate, then cram and do well. Why study when the test is not for a couple days and you can go hike up Bishop Peak or go to the beach now?

For the record Rick is slightly older and it is always his fault.

Well it is 10:00 pm and it has cooled all the way down to 101. It was 112 for the high. The all time hottest ever recorder in OKC is 113 back in the 1930s I think 1936 was the year. Almost no one had AC back then.

Richard, Sharyn and I wish you well. Hoping you get to keep your foot. Speedy recovery mate

Welcome back Azzy.

Having a great day off today. New windscreen in the 944 this morning, a feed of battered cat (KFC) - really don't know why I did that? Craving - maybe I'm pregnant? Took a little blat up the highway for an hour or so. The old girl will still get to 180kph fairly quickly
