I’m leaving in about fifteen minutes to pick Mr. Chili up from the airport! I have no idea how long he’ll be able to stay at home, but do I care? NO! He’ll be here with us where he belongs, and I’ll be happy for it while I have it.
I’ll write more tomorrow. I hope [...]

Mr. Chili isn’t coming home today. It may well be that we don’t get to have him back until sometime in the middle of next week.
I’m not sure who’s more upset about this, him or us. He’s terribly homesick; when he called yesterday to tell me that a Friday return wasn’t looking likely, [...]

I’ve heard, over the years, that Vegas was trying to reinvent itself to be a more family-oriented vacation destination.
What I’m sayin’ here is, “not so much.”
Yes, there are quite a few places that we wouldn’t mind taking the girls. We spent a good part of Saturday morning at the Bellagio, gawking at gorgeous glass [...]

This is the Cirque show that we saw in Vegas. I cannot begin to tell you how satisfying an experience a Cirque du Soleil performance is. If there’s EVER a chance for you to go and see one - even if you have to spend way more for a ticket than you think is decent [...]

The first ten things to come to me this morning…
1. While I wouldn’t have gone out of my way to go there, Vegas was a fun experience and I’m glad I went.
2. The crepes at the Bellagio were better than the crepes in the Paris (sorry, Sooza. The Crown and Anchor was [...]

After FAR too long in airplanes, I made it home at about quarter past seven this evening. I’m not sure that readjusting to the time is going to be a problem, as I plan to fall unceremoniously into bed soon after I tuck the girls in for the night.
I’ll write more tomorrow….

Dudley and Squeaky were married yesterday.
The entire affair was beautiful to look at. Dudley was handsome in his tux and Syracuse orange bow tie. His groomsmen, handsome men all, were striking in their tuxes and formed quite the yummy line of manliness. Squeaky managed to pull off a bridal coup by choosing, against all odds, [...]

My internal chronometer is all fucked up.
I had just started getting used to the shift after Daylight Saving Time. Mornings were starting to get easier and I was starting to fall asleep at night when I should. I wasn’t dragging quite so much as I was when the clocks first got set ahead. All that [...]

Holy shit.
I was warned. People in the know told me; they said, “Chili, you’re not going to believe it.” they were right.
We arrived at 4:30 local time (more on THAT later) after a very long but smooth flight. We got our bags without incident and managed to connect with Bobo and his Mrs., who had [...]
