Return To Paradise

2006-12-14 - 8:41 a.m.

Last night was another bad time with a crossword puzzle.

Four letter word, "nonpareil" - ONER. (I thought a nonpareil was a type of candy.)
Four letter word, "priestly vestments" - ALBS.
Five letter word, "irregularly notched" - EROSE.
Five letter word, "church areas" - NAVES.
Five letter word, "ancient bazaar" - AGORA.

And the kicker:

Seven letter word, "crosswise" - ATHWART.

Good grief. There was certainly no "eclat" this time.

Well, if I get the chance to play Scrabble again, I'm gonna be dangerous.

The fine folk at Verizon gave me more info, and I've decided that paying the insurance deductible for a new phone is the best way to go.

So today I'm getting that started. Whee.

But, there's some good news. I received a nice early Christmas gift - a ticket to Disneyland. Problem is, it expires today...but I have the day off, so it's not a big problem.

Therefore the title.

But, I have to go to the Verizon store and get the ball rolling, so into the shower and off to the House Of Mouse.

Ya know...since I've moved, I'm actually within walking distance. I may do that, instead.

Nah, better not. I'll be doing lots of walking around anyway. Why push it?

Be seeing you.
