Fish & Chips (from up north)

Well my friend has gone north just like i told u he would. And is in Christchurch New Zealand. Like a good roving corespondent, he’s checking out the local sights and things to do. A little later today we will put up some pics of the countryside. But he made a point to let me know he had a great lunch of fish and chips. His companion had been to the place before and liked it. Repeat business says something. So if u r hungry for some fish and chips (their other food also looks top notch) and u happen to be in Christchurch City, may i suggest this fine establishment:

Pegasus Arms Restaurant and Bar
14 Oxford Terrace, Christchurch City, NZ

pegasus-arms.com

We will use the wayback machine, that’s how

Listen, most of you probably don’t know this.  My blog has been around for years.  Started in 2007.  But not done consistently.  And a huge gap from 2009 to 2014 (Yikes!)

So we just did a software update.  a huge jump and it was just easier to copy all the posts and blast the site.  Vaporize everything and load the new software.

I will be putting the old entries back into place, with their correct original date.  Hopefully it won’t take me too long.  So u will see the number of posts grow.  Backwards in time.  Magically.  we use computers and software for this stuff.

Hope u have a chance to go back and read what i wrote b4.  OK watch for the good old stuff.  I will also put out a current post to announce when all the old stuff is in place.

4:52 am

Why am i up bloging at 4:52 am you ask? Well i’m at work, and the workday is winding down. U may recall i work 6 pm to 6 am. This schedule affects my days off as well. Sometimes on a day off i wake up at say 2:30 am. My body has gotten some rest but due to my night shift it thinks it should b awake. Usually not worth trying to force myself back to sleep. Such is my life currently. Would like to find a job on days, near my home (remember my hour commute?)

Time Flies

Well not in the air. It’s sort of a fourth dimension thing. Actually what i meant to say is i haven’t checkd in in a while. Been too busy. That tends to happen this time of year. It’s a good busy though. The usual holiday fare – food, family, fun etc.
None the less, the blog has been neglected. Things are still very good. I don’t know how to increase my sales to where they (should be?) but the guy who has done it in the past can’t convey to me how to do it. Progress is gradual but in the general correct direction – up.
I still don’t know what i want to be when i grow up. Of course i have been saying that for years. Only because it’s true. Many people are like me in that respect – they come across a job that pays the bills, they get a few more bills, maybe some kids or extra cars or what ever, they work harder at their accidental career, get more pay and the cycle keeps going and they find they spent their (job) life at something they never planned and didn’t want to really do. That’s why they call it work.
So at least i have verbalized most of my life that there must be something better, something i would really like to do and get paid for (handsomely?) So time flies in more than one way – short term and long term.
Well hope all is well with you – Merry Christmas! I will try to be more faithful to the blog, and to have something to entertain you.
