Q: How do I know that the experimental stuffing I concocted last night didn’t go over well?

Last night I went to my weekly board game night, got home about 11:30 and there was the pizza box on the stove.

I have cooked stuffed chicken breasts with meat straight from the Butcher shop 6 doors down and a stuffing made with some whole grain breadcrumbs that the wife picked up which I spiced with Garlic, Oliveoil, black pepper and a few other spices with a touch of Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese.

I could see that people where much more enthusiastic about the wings I made on the side but I didn’t expect an extra dinner out there.

Well back to the drawing board.

Job interview on Thursday

It’s a more product specific support than I usually do but with 20 years of picking up new systems it shouldn’t be that much of a problem.

If you have a spare prayer, I’ll certainly take it and if possible throw one toward my nephew too, he is off to Minnesota for an interview this week and his situation is rougher than mine.

I’m the odd man out on facebook.

All the other members of the Worlds Greatest family are on Facebook. So are most of my younger relatives etc.

Being an old Sicilian I’ve never been interested in social networking sites, I didn’t even get onto AOL until my job required it.

Lately I’ve been seeing the back and forth of the problems of a relative for all the world to see.

I can’t understand why anyone would want to share that kind of stuff online. I don’t think I ever will.

I think I’ll stay the odd man out.

Something happened today that has never happened to me before…

…I had to buy groceries the day after an open house.

There are enough leftovers for maybe a snack. I don’t know what we would have done if the weather was good or if so many of the regulars hadn’t been sick.

Everyone else is still in bed, I’m going to let them sleep today, they’ve earned it.
