I got up at 5:00am this morning to find "Wind northwest 20 to 30 knots diminishing to northwest 10 to 20." :(

So it's football instead, I might as well start on the beers as its relatively, the afternoon. :)

Plus, of course, the '12 o'clock rule' - any beers before that hour don't count towards the daily total. ;)

I slept all day, only day off, wife is working, so nothing to do...lol

Plus I was up for 30 hours straight between Wed and Thursday, and still making up the sleep from that.

Every week I find myself up for 24+ hours straight, joys of graveyard shifts and life getting in the way of sleeping during the day.

From “Saturday” by Ian McEwan

The primitive thinking of the supernaturally inclined amounts to a problem, or an idea, of reference. An excess of the subjective, the ordering of the world in accord with your needs, an inability to contemplate your own unimportance. Such reasoning belongs on a spectrum at whose far end, rearing like an abandoned temple, lies psychosis.

Indeed it is...I'm glad I've only got my gardening to unimportantly worry about:blink:
