Steak & beer. O Lord let my soul stay wild & free in this land of wheat & cattle.

My mom, age 59, finished her doctoral dissertation this morning. Holy Huxtable! Not a medical doctor, but a doctor of education! More details on that tomorrow. In celebration, Dr. Mom treated me, Dad, Margi, and Thelma to the monthly Grassy Butte steak feed.

O Lord let my soul stay wild & free.

In work related news: more dead mice, more dusty newspapers. Tomorrow I will begin nine months of hoisting and lowering Old Glory up and down the museum's rusty flag pole.

Steak & beer. O Lord let my soul stay wild & free in this land of wheat & cattle.

dear mr sandman
if you have the ability, could you please post a photo of your family? i would like to see your mom and dad and gramps and mums and uncle chris and all. peanut would be appreciated too. i understand if you cannot because of limited technological resources or the desire to shield your family from celebrity exposure. but all the same, it doesn't hurt to ask. does it?
thank you.

yesterday someone was telling me about Twenty-Four, which is a tv serial that i had never heard of being a bit pop culturally deprived. but 24 is no competition with sandman's journal.

Anon. #1- One of my goals this year is to learn how to post photos on this journal. In the meantime, if you send me your email I can send pics as attachments. Or to see a picture of my parents (25 years ago) go to my bio page: http://www.rappincowboy.com/bio.html

Anon. 2- Thanks-I haven't heard of 24, either...
