Okay…Let’s Try This Again
I am awake. I am oriented. I am not coughing (as much). And today is jen_vm, my beloved bride’s, birthday.
So this week? This week is going to be a good, productive, week. Yes, it is. Just you watch.
In honor of this optimism, and of Jen’s birthday, I offer the following. Captain Bogg & Salty singing “Pieces of Eight.” Enjoy!

Wow.
I love the looks on the kids faces when he shows up.
Best wishes to your wife on her birthday and I’m glad you’re feeling better.

Okay, that was just a badass music video, where did you find it?

Many happy returns of the day to the lovely and talented Jen.
Looks like I’ll have a Rose and the Doctor for Halloween. Trying to finagle a TARDIS too.
Keep feeling better. The productivity will come along as necessary.
Be seeing you.

Happy Birthday to your wife on this most glorious day (it’s my wife’s birthday as well).

Glad you are feeling better.
Just wanted to thank you for the assistance in contacting Paul Levitz regarding the essay about Renee Montoya’s Minifig — I heard back from him personally. He seemed to appreciate my sentiment, as you suspected. Thanks again!

And now have been able to view the video several times, show it to others, etc.
(No YouTube at work, ya know)
The video and the band totally rock! Now I know why you mentioned them the other day.
Now, once dug out of immediate debt, must work on acquire Mr. Booog’s back catalog and be a heart-banger of fun!!

You’re very welcome. Thank you for sending it to him – honestly, it does so much good when people take the time like you did to applaud the good (as much as all the folks who mark the bad, y’know?).
