Well hey! it's Thursday!!

And oh.mah.gawd. What a crazy day today's been!!

But first, a YouTube treat [if you're reading this from facebook and it doesn't show there you'll have to check the actual blogsite to view the youtube], anyone a fan of Tom Baker? Yep, he's the Fourth Doctor. There were two Doctor Who intros featuring him. And this one, the first of the two, is my favorite.



And now, onto that time of the week we all know and love: the Top-20 Starian Union Radio Countdown! And, as always, the countdown always somehow goes a bit, erm, loopy. *LOL* Anywho!

And now, onto today's mess: can I just say, 5-hour power outage from God-knows-where!! Yep, at around 6:15 this morning the transformer blew, and pretty much we had no power, we were closed for most of my shift! *LOL* Best part of the five-hour hang-fest was, pizza and a game of Uno. Lots of fun overall. During that time I opted to play DJ and so, with my trusty iPod, I random'd the 'Pod and cranked up the tunage.

[What goes down in the Underground...]

Mondays start the new workweek. Wednesdays tend to differ, depending on if I need to work or not--usually I'm off, and usually visiting "Uncle" Joseph. Thursdays is the Daughters of the King meeting night. Fridays and Saturdays are normally hectic--never the same drama twice. Sundays = Church day. I update the blog accordingly, with a rant or two, the occasional music post, and sometimes the most random nonsuch.

So stay tuned, because things are fixing to get interesting... and, save your forks--the best is yet to come...
