Getting Back Into the Swing
Regular blogging by me should resume soon. (My thanks to Robbie for taking up the slack in my absence.) I decided to take a little extra time in blog detox on my way back from Christmas in the Shenandoah Valley. I think I scored some bonus point with my husband for traveling without the normal laptop in tow.
We stopped at JR's in DC on Monday for "Showtunes Night," which used to be a weekly fixture for me. It only took a short time there for me to realize that I stand by every single thing I wrote about the District's proposed smoking ban, our commenters' views notwithstanding.
And while I'm banning things, I think we should add one more thing to the list: crack. Not the kind derived from cocaine, but the kind that results from droopy drawers. We were stationed at the bar next to an especially drunken and trolly troll whose jeans were pulled halfway down his buttcrack, exposing his puffy, pasty flesh to the entire bar. To paraphrase Valerie Cherish, "I so don't need to see that!"
Anyhow, I have been preparing a big post of New Year's resolutions from across the blogosphere. If you are a blog-pal and I neglected to include you when I first cast the net, please accept my humblest apologies – and feel free to email me your resolutions belatedly (along with a pic for the post).
Oh, one more thing: I ventured down to 23rd Street today to get a new DVR cable box to replace the one that captures the bulk of our video clips. While it is a change that will manifest itself mostly behind the scenes, it should improve the quantity and quality of our MalcoVision.
Are you an ex-Washingtonian, too? I served my time '93-'98 (plus some time on the Hill in '89).
I hope you have better luck with your 23rd Street DVR. I got TWO from there only to find out from the eventually-called-to-the-rescue "cable guy" that the boxes Time Warner leaves there are old and refurbished -- and that if you want a good one, you have to get it from "the cable guy."
The one he brought has had no problems ...

Yes, I lived there from February 1995 to May 2005. We'll see about my cable box ...

"blog detox"
obvious code for botox ...
(not that you need it)

Why didn't you tell me you were coming? You could have insulted me to my face.

Well, it wasn't particularly planned, and you and I aren't exactly on good enough terms that I have your digits. But feel free to give a shout if you ever make it across the water when you're in Staten Island. I'd be happy to get you drunk.
