In that months have passed . . .

and I have not written. It's not like the months have been filled with event after event. Well, we did have this little hurricane. It blew through here and caused a great deal of damage. I got off lucky. I had an awning torn off and my back screen porch kinda got wrecked, but nothing too bad. A lot of people had it worse. I fully expected the power to be off for days, but it was on two days after the storm. Later, I heard that I am on the same "grid" as the sewer plant, so that is a priority and I get to catch the wave of good fortune here. It took a couple of months to get really back to normal. Hopefully we won't have one for, well, forever.

My LSU Tigers are out of the SEC race. Young quarterback, mistakes, underachieving defense. Mercy.

A couple of weeks ago we had a bat'leth tournament in east Texas - hosted by the Melota. I didn't fight, but it was very cool. The highlight was me getting drunk as shit on bloodwine and, later, throwing my guts up. God, why did I do that? Well, I should be the talk of the tournament for next year.

Doing things a little bit different for Christmas. My brother is coming down the week before, so I'm going up to Bossier City to see my mom then - an early Christmas. That's great, though, because now I'll have the long weekend here to do whatever.

Hopefully, I'll be a little more diligent here.
