I woke up to three inches of wet heavy snow. I moved my car.
In the evening there was another three inches of wet heavy snow. I took the trash down to the curb.

9 Days - EIGHT
I slept in until 10:15 today. Then it was a South Beach breakfast and coffee while I watched last night's "Spartacus: War of the Damned".
Random minor tasks followed, such as shaving, doing a sink full of dishes, and cleaning the toilet. Then I ran out for $25 worth of comics (holy crap - Sun Boy is dead???), and ordered a pizza. The Red Sox lost their first preseason game in the bottom of the 9th. I watched two episodes of "Mad Men" (5.3 and 5.4).

9 Days - SEVEN
Yesterday was a day of rest. I spent the day watching tv, reading, and hanging out online. That is all.

9 Days - SIX
I woke up at 9:30 (another great night's sleep), threw on some clothes, and went down to Mocha Mott's for the third time in three days for a large coffee, and another sausage, egg & cheese on a plain bagel for breakfast. Then it was packing, showering and getting ready to head off-island.
My reservation was for 5 pm, but I opted for an early exodus, and got in the stand-by line at 11:30 am. There wasn't room on the noon ferry, so I read a big chunk of "A Tramp Abroad". As a result, because I drive a Honda Civic, mine was the only car that would fit on the 1:15, and I got to cut in front of many SUVs - HAHAHA!
It was a nice drive home. My box of books from Amazon was waiting for me when I walked in, and Sabrino was ecstatic that I was back from being gone for over 54 hours. My cat is the best. He sat on my lap for awhile, and later, when I unpacked my suitcase he spent a good thirty minutes happily rolling around on one of the shirts I had on during my trip. I love him so much!
I spent the rest of the day emptying my DVR, catching up online, and then watching tonight's shows.

9 Days - THREE
I ate right all day: a South Beach Breakfast in the a.m., the 'Smoked Oyster Special' for lunch, and mac & cheese w/ground beef & broccoli for supper (with a Red Hook ESB). Okay, I had a lot of M&M's in between, but I'm calling it a good day.
I watched "Seven Psychopaths" in the morning; hung out online (and did laundry), looking up vacation activities & places to eat in the afternoon; and I watched tv in the evening.
The day goes by a lot quicker when one gets out of bed at 10:00 am...

9 Days - TWO
As you can see, I didn't post yesterday, but this is the recap:
For some reason I was up & out of bed at 7:30 am. I had cereal and coffee while I watched "Live Free or Die Hard" and later, I had last night's beef lo mein for lunch. I ran out to foodshop at 7:00 pm, and I ended the day with the season 3 finale of "Downton Abbey". A long and quiet day except for the gale force winds blowing outside!
Oh, and I drew this:

9 Days - ONE
I slept in until 9:30, had cereal for breakfast with my coffee, and then watched cartoons ("Green Lantern" and "Young Justice"). It snowed overnight, but just a light powder.
Then I drew for awhile, added several cds and songs to my iPod, had Chinese food and watched "Ghostbusters".
Around 6 pm I finally showered, and then I ran out to the comic shop. I made coffee and read for a couple of hours, and then drew some more. I also talked to Erik & Chris on the phone, and the latter is down for this year's WPMF!
I'm currently (10:00 pm) watching "The Mosquito Coast" on my computer with my Big Blue Live for the sound, and I just completed my drawing project, "Legionnaire Ken".

WPMF IV
For this year's 4th Annual Wyman's Pond Music Fest I sent out invites to the alumni:
...and I am looking for two new acts to round out the event, which I am hoping has an 'after dark' element this year.

New Music - MBV
I just bought the new (it's about time!) album from My Bloody Valentine, "MBV". I got the special bundle, which includes the music on 180 gram vinyl (I am going to buy a really good turntable soon, I promise!), on compact disc, and an immediate download of the album in mp3 format. Sweet.
