Actually, I was home at 7:30 (central time) & watched about 15 minutes of the show before I fell asleep. :P
I took the whole day off, visiting places in Madison, ate lunch at the Olive Garden (!), saw my childhood home, then my hometown (Fort Atkinson) and visited w/friends before going to see Dad again.
Southern WI has suddenly developed several new lakes in the area. Unfortunately, many of them are near, and even ON several highways. I had to strategically plan how to get to Dad's, and even then, I had to drive through standing water. :scared: Worst flooding I've ever seen in the area. I ended up driving through Milwaukee (Hi, ralps!) on the way home, since all roads in Jefferson County had water on them, or major detours. Oh, and just for fun: my rear window in my car broke as I was trying to put it up. Had to ride home w/the window open. Thank God it didn't rain until the last 15 minutes of my ride.
Sigh. I have a meeting tomorrow night. It MIGHT be a short one, since the chair is out of town. I hope to see y'all soon!!

You were missed! Did you see your KOOS? Too bad you missed another Bay Air.
Better not tell anyone you ate at the Olive Garden. Otherwise, though, sounds like a good day, except for that rear window. At least you made it through the water.
I sure hope you can make it tomorrow night for the Special Comment!

3. The OG will be our little secret, 'kay? |

It's supposed to rain tomorrow, so I have to wait before I can get the window fixed. At least I have another car to use! (thanks, Dad!)
Missed the KOOS - but that's why I'm still awake. 1 hour to go! :bounce::bounce:

:hug::hug::hug: You and li'l Gambit are in my thoughts and prayers. Sorry I didn't get to reply to your PM yet... I guess I figured that you'd already gone to sleep.
Today, I went to the Pet Supermarket in Madison... and I got to meet some ferrets in person! Mercy! I didn't know they were so.. odorific. But I sure love their tiny little claws! One li'l guy came right up to me and grabbed my finger. I thought of Gizmo. :)
Hope that YOU are feeling better. :hug::loveya:

10. Mmmm. Endless salad and breadsticks. |

Yum. That driving sounded frightful; glad you made it through, and ended up mostly dry.
GD: P disappeared into a black hole and re-emerged as the faster, shinier GD: P. The first thread in the new forum was locked within the first minutes. So, what I'm saying is, you didn't miss much.
Welcome back, baby! :loveya:
