Got invited to a couple of dinners, but I think I'm gonna lay low today. It seems like they only want me there as an entertainment buffer between warring family factions. I'm not up for a performance today.

Maybe you can accidently drop that radio.

That whole eating every day and sleeping indoors thing really cramps my style.

At least I know someone would be out here in time to recover the body

I just found out the hard way that the client feels that today is a holiday deserving of hourly radio checks too.

They don't seem to think I need radio checks on all the other days I'm out here completely alone but I'm afraid that if I point that out they'll start doing them those days too.

at my son's house; a small group (6 total) and I brought left-overs home. It was nice, and I'm about to finish off the left-overs for lunch.
