[Groop] Hi From Dessesbo

[cklein at mn.rr.com]

I will try to get to it soon - heck, it's only March after all...

I've just been a little busy lately.  I got married last year, I'm expecting a baby in May, I totaled one car in November (I did err - I turned left into oncoming traffic but no one was hurt) and as of this past Sunday I was hit by a drunk driver (no one was hurt this time either, which was amazing as it was on a highway this time).  Since things are supposed to come in threes, I'm okay as I damaged a rental car a few years ago when I was in Michigan on business (and went to the Motor City Comic Con which I haven't made it back to yet [and I'd love to go this year, but for some reason my wife wants me not to go as that's around the time the baby's due]).  Anyway, I will see if I can get around to it as it's something I've been meaning to do since January 1st (as well as a few other things).

If I get it done, I'll celebrate by making that Puppy Chow/Muddy Buddies (that Chex cereal thing) that I've been meaning to make since last September.
