Sorry about the lack of journal posts toward the midweek. I would have to say that it was a crazy busy week at work and now we go into one of those lulls where there are no copy jobs in bin.

WEDNESDAY:

Not a very eventful wednesday. Had a rather good Jimmy Johns sandwich to eat. Also I discovered that the Dekalb Street Bridge is now open again in Bridgeport. It helps make commute home go that much quicker.

THURSDAY:

I am now realizing why it is a good idea to do this journal daily. I cant remember what I did on Thursday. I do know that I went to swim class and that the instructor was sick.

FRIDAY:

Whoo Hoo, Friday. I had a good Friday!! Lorin and I went to the Gym and had an awesome workout and then headed out on a date night. Yup, I took the wife on a date! it was fun. We went to CPK and had coctails and pizza. Then we went over to Dave and Busters for some fun games including skeeball. When We got home I saw that my new safety razor had arrived along with a badger hair brush and some shaving soap.

SATURDAY:

I got up early and went to CVS to pick up some aftershave and talc. I then had some breakfast, showered and tried wet shaving with a safety razor for the first time. What an adventure, naturally I cut myself.

Lorin and I went to the Dog show and saw those cute lil’ Duck Tollers! Of course we had to wait though hours of Cocker Spanials just to see them compete. Didn’t get to see John O’Hurley this year.

SUNDAY:

I decided I needed to give myself the USMC fitness test. Oi! I scored a mere 34 on the test. I am not fit enough for the military I guess. My legs are killing me however after the three mile run. And then I went and chopped down Rosemary’s front bushes with a chainsaw.

Day two of wet shaving: Still cut myself, but I got a much smoother shave, I think I am getting the hang of it.

Went to a thrifshop and spent some time with Lorin there and came home to dinner with the Ryan’s. I finished the day with cartooning until midnight.

Well, nothing much eventful happened today. I had a busy day at work and took Lorin to a doctors appointment. Everything checked out honkey dorey with her so we went across the street to eat dinner at the brand new Wegmans and to check out the store. Needless to say, Wegmans is the coolest grocery store I have ever been to. And my sub was fantastic. I hope to get back there someday to try out The Pub. Another difference between Wegmans and other Pennsylvania grocery stores is that it sells beer and wine. Thier selection of beers rivals most beer distributers in the area and you can get a six pack instead of a case.

See ya tommorow.

This is a daily journal, so every day despite how mundane, I will sit down and write about what happened.

The biggest thing would be that I had drawn my first guest comic for another artist. It was fun I must say to draw his characters as I draw my own.

I had to help the technician install a new color machine on five at work to replace a consistently jamming one.

On the way home I went to pick up a jar of pasta sauce at the King of Prussia Genuardi’s. The place was packed and the express lane was closed. All the other shoppers had full carts, I just had one jar. Then I noticed that the service desk was clear. I moved in that direction, but someone beat me there and proceeded to get a money order. There were two people at the service desk, one in an apron trying to figure out how to ring up a money order and another sans apron just standing there. After ten minutes (and now a long line behind me), the girl without the apron rolled her eyes, threw on her apron and asked if I needed help. She checked me out and I was on my merry way past the crowded checkouts.
