A Dismal Day...

It's a rainy, cold day here in Denver. Not unusual for June (June...rhymes with monsoon). And that certainly doesn't help the gray mood I'm in.

The day started off badly enough. I hopped online, connected to my company's servers through VPN with the hope of running a report. My company e-mail was horked, as was the server I pull raw data from. Hence, no report running for me.

Then I chatted online briefly with my friend Tom. Darker shade of gray.

Thinking I had an 11:00 appointment to get my hair cut, I took a quick shower and rushed to get there on time. Deb always frowns at me when I show up late. Still arrive at 11:06 due to the slow traffic caused by the downpour going on. Don't have an umbrella with me, so I arrive looking like a drowned rat. The receptionist at the front desk smiles at me and says "You don't have an appointment today!". Deb comes out, says maybe it's next Saturday. Nope, nothing scheduled there, either. So, I can wait 45 minutes, or schedule an appointment for next Saturday. Ooops, sorry.....they no longer accept appointments on Saturday.

My original plan had been to get my hair cut, then go downtown to the People's Fair on Capitol Hill. Always a great place to people watch, have some great food and drink, and listen to some fantastic music. Ah, but the rain, remember? Nix that idea. After yesterday's storm of biblical proportions, not taking that chance.

So, instead head over to Sam's for some breakfast. The place is packed, but manage to grab a spot at the counter and order some (yes, Joe) french toast and coffee while I scan the morning Rocky.

So now here I am at home, bored. No where to go. Nothing to do. Or is there? Hmmm...
