Calypso meat loaf, bacon wrapped asparagus and garlic and herb Yukon gold fingerling potatoes. K is going to call in tomorrow with a stomach bug, so looks like a batch of chicken soup in on the menu for tomorrow.

Went to see Downton Abbey this afternoon with my Bride, my middle daughter and Grandpa. I enjoyed the TV series as well as the movie today. I could have done without the alternative lifestyle portion of the movie but such is present day entertainment.

Anyway, post movie we went to Firebirds a wood fired grill serving hand-cut steaks and fresh seafood. I had their american kobe beef meatloaf with a portabella mushroom sauce, spiced pecan green beans and a baked potato.It was delicious.

I'm so done with our Skins utterly dysfunctional front office. I have never been a baseball fan but started watching the Nats this year and man was it exciting. Maybe it's time for me to move on to a different sport.

Baseball and Football have always been my primary sports. I also watch some College Basketball, but only when Syracuse is playing.

This year I watched more Yankees games than I probably did in the last 10 years combined. I also watched each game of the World Series, despite having said I was done for the season after the Yankees lost the ALCS.

I think I got burned out on Football the last few years. I had the Redzone and basically spent all day on Sundays glued to the TV watching Football, plus Monday and Thursday nights. This year I have not watched one game. Not one. I'm just not interested.

KFC, Business travel, the expense account, the glamour...

I can't knock KFC unless there's a Popeyes within shouting distance. KFC Nashville Hot Wings are pretty good, but calling them hot is a pretty big stretch. I've had oatmeal that was spicier.
