It's been another one of those work days. Glad for the money, but would love a day off. The computer program we're using is on a national server. And it crashes often. Too often to get much work done. So they have us doing busy work. Today, it was up and running no problem, well, except only two of us could use it at one time.
But the afternoon was nice. I raced from the office to a barbecue cookoff, which helped close out the wine festival that I'm helping with. Judged smoked chicken, ribs and brisket. Some excellent entries and some really, surprisingly lame entries. Last year, we couldn't stop eating the ribs. This year, with the exception of the winner, we really didn't want to taste much of them. Rubbery and tired. But there was plenty of wine, fun music and the great outdoors.
