Rain boot dreams

I'm sitting at my desk with a large distended belly. Today was the Kiwanis Annual Chili Cook-off and Patti and I went because I entered the cooking fray (and won a 3rd place trophy). I wrote a story about it that made Kirby laugh out loud. She said it made her day. I like that.

Ryan has been sick so he isn't nearly as much fun as usual. He sits over there, pathetically, in his coat with his sunglasses on the back of his head. Poor kid.

Kirby is now daydreaming about rain boots.

Jeff has disappeared for the day, and Patti is laughing manically for no apparent reason over at her desk.

Another day in the newsroom.
