Sunshine? Here!

Thank God ... and all the fine folks at The Weather Channel!

: )

I mean, how long had it been since the sun had shone here? I started counting back, and I know that, prior to Christmas, the sky had been completely overcast for, like, a month. OK, at least a solid week; I know this because we had all the gloomy days leading up to the big snowstorm on the 22nd, and then it had been gray and cold through Sunday, Dec. 26 ... and then when I returned, it was actually raining (and cloudy).

I need to drag out my Northern Exposure DVDs. Though the episode I am seeking is the one in which Walt is wearing the light-hat to help him cope with the period of eternal darkness in Cicely, Alaska. (Not to be confused with the episode in which Fleischman goes on a 24-hour-plus manic spree because of the constant sunshine!)

(Wonder if this new Numbers starring Rob Morrow will be any good? Truthfully, I am not necessarily up for taking on any new shows. Right now, I am contemplating whether to go ahead and get digital cable, and whether to get the whole shebang with Showtime AND HBO ... because I must have The L Word ... but I just might need HBO, too, finally ... and then there is the whole TiVo issue: Do I need it? Can I figure it out if I do have it? Is it even possible for me to waste even more time watching TV than what I already do?)

Found this whilst walking from Duval Street back to our condo, just over a week ago. After having lunch at Blue Heaven, a place where chickens strut around the place whilst you are eating. Which is pretty cool and adds to the laid-back ambience of the place ... until you see one of the chickens raise up and shake its feathers, sending dust flying here and there. Still, the food was really excellent: The Lovely and I both had the luncheon tortilla with jerk chicken, and it was muy tasty. And I got me a brick-colored T-shirt with the Blue Heaven logo on it. (It has been quite a while since my ultra-cool brick-colored Nike T-shirt was finally laid to rest, so this was a welcome and actually much-needed addition to my wardrobe/color scheme.)

The photojournal is in the works. I think. I mean, I created one; rather, I redid an existing but unused extension of this site (mainly because I detest configuring these things; just seems so time-consuming or something).
