From the Editor in Chief, U.S. ... and Publisher

Hello all,

It's a beautiful morning here in DC, unseasonably warm with a light balmy breeze. Love that global warming!

I know you're all dying to know. Yes, Chris had a fun weekend but he also tended to the home like the provider he is and got some nagging housework done. For starters, he finally put up the remaining tiles for our kitchen backsplash on Saturday! (I'll try to get a pic for you on my lunch break.) Astute readers may notice that this project has been pending completion for two years now, so this was big news for our household. No, it's not yet grouted, but patience, dear reader. Chris wants to take his time on this one and do it right. He's flirting with the idea of grouting this weekend, in fact. Worn out from a day of physical labor, Mr. Saturday Night just kicked it that evening, innertubing at home with his wife and some Chinese food.

Also of note, though I'm sure the CW fanbase is aware, his beloved Redskins won on Sunday against the Cardinals in a nail-biting, stomach-churning, butt-clenching, mind-warping botched-field-goal finish on the part of the birds. Poor Rackers.

So what does Chris's week look like? He'll be attending a concert Tuesday night [Yo La Tengo at the Birchmere in Alexandria for those who'd like to come catch a glimpse. Of Chris.]; and likely celebrating the birthday of October-Friend-of-Chris-Disqualified-Nominee Lauren M. on Wednesday evening. Dinner will be light on flair; probably an eggs-and-bacon-Rice-a-Roni-Totino's kind of week. Also, our State Farm bill is due on Thursday and I need to schedule a dentist appointment for Chris, who is overdue for his six-month cleaning. There you have it! You're up to speed.
