18:00 CET – I have a hangover – The Reckoning has come

Remember, it’s 10:00 in Laramie, a mere 9 hours after I got back to my hotel from drinking beer at Altitude Brewery. Foolishly I had three Reckonings, and the Reckoning has come.

Actually I felt fine when I got back to the hotel – 20 minutes later I was feeling terrible – […]

18:00 CET: I took the (cute) bus to downtown Laramie

It’s Thursday in Laramie, Wyoming, and I decided to go downtown to do a little shopping and a little coffee drinking – and while I could have driven downtown in, uh, give or take 5 minutes, I took the Gem City Grand Bus Route – which, between my hotel and downtown, makes […]

18:00 CET: Traveling down Colfax at 10 in the morning… on the way to Wyoming

Tuesday morning, before heading north, I went to a coffee shop in order to get caught up on my email—for while I might be on vacation, some aspects of work need somewhat regular attention.

I found myself on Colfax Avenue at 18:00 CET – a warm, sunny, Tuesday morning at 10 in Denver.

18:00 CET – 10:00 and visiting my father’s auto mechanic.

There’s an auto repair shop in Denver whose service was so fantastic and honest that my father became a long-standing client – and he became friends with the owner. It was the kind of relationship that evolved into to the two of them taking trips together including to watch Colorado Rockies spring […]

18:00 CET: At Dazbog in Denver

Today at 18:00 CET, it’s also 10:00 MST, and I’m at Dazbog in Denver.

No doubt I’ve blogged about Dazbog before: I’ve been coming here for about a decade and aside from the store being rebranded and redecorated, the customers are the same.

Seirously.

From where I’m sitting right now, I recognize two […]

18:00 CET is 10:00 MST – And a late Saturday morning breakfast…

Saturday morning I visited with one of my oldest friends, Eva.

Originally she’d planned on cooking breakfast but she’d forgotten that I was coming (she didn’t look at her calendar) and, therefore, was unprepared – so we ended up going out for breakfast at Le Peep’s.

Le Peep’s is a small, Colorado-based, chain of restaurants […]

18:00 CET: Where I wasn’t & Where I went…

I knew far in advance that Thursday at 18:00 CET that I would be in route to the States.

The scene itself? Not so exciting

This is what it looks like from seat 7C on a Continental 757-200. Immediately ahead of me: infinite leg-room, as row 7 is an exit row and, […]

18:00 CET: It’s a Schöneburger for dinner

Reading and drinking, while waiting.

I officially leave for vacation tomorrow morning – and so today, I got to work extra early, got an incredible amount done (seriously) and then left before 2. From work I went to the gym where I lifted weights, did cardio, and briefly steamed myself before heading home.

It’s […]

18:00 CET: Packing to go…

I leave on vacation later this week – and so tonight was the designated “packing night” and I have to say that I’m simultaneously happy and unhappy with the results of my effort.

Honestly my serious photography hobby has thrown a wrench into my plans and is, unfortunately, causing me to take my big suitcase […]

18:00 CET: Changing laundry loads

In retrospect, today’s photo was bound to happen, sometime – I just hadn’t quite expected it to be today.

The towels are about to come out and the dirty clothes to go in.

Basically I do clothing laundry roughly twice a week, usually right after every other trip to the gym, when […]
