Wow!

After blogging yesterday, I drove Mrs. That Dan Guy to work, and then returned home.

OK, that wasn’t the “wow” part – I’d have to have a pretty dull day for that to be the highlight…

Uh, not that I don’t have a ball driving MTDG into work – we usually stop for a latte, and then chitty-chat and laugh all the way to her workplace. Plus on the way back, I stop at the local park and feed the pigeons, help out with a barbershop quartet that visits local seniors’ homes, scan the supermarket shelves for upcoming grocery deals, stop in at the nearest animal shelter to help canvas for new homes for the animals, make weekly appearances on the board of directors of a charitable trust fund for unemployed rodeo clowns, whittle life-size replicas of native bird species, give pep talks to local school sports teams, ensure the overall quality of area drinking water, sample a piece or two of Luigi’s latest tentative menu offerings, wonder how in God’s name nobody I know (including myself) managed to make it into the Top Ten of this year’s annual Benchley Awards, serve as an auxiliary RCMP officer, assist road crews with debris removal after wind storms, eat three donuts (just because I can), pick each individual leaf off of my lawn now that fall has arrived, alert the local newspaper of every typo I spot during my read of the day’s early edition, pray for world peace along with every other former beauty pageant contestant, floss, check Sparky for fleas and ticks, monitor alien communication signals from my ham radio station, surf the Google to verify if Rice-A-Roni is indeed the San Francisco treat it claims to be, and every once in awhile – I fill up the car with gasoline and clean the windshield.

No, the “wow” part was that when I came home yesterday, I didn’t turn my computer on. Not even once.

Wow, eh???

Chow for now!!
