Summer ideas

Hello and welcome once again to Mr. Za's house of craziness.

In today's episode we will study the mating habits of catfish, the intricate
process of shearing wool from adult sheep, and of course your favorite:
getting in touch with your inner-self...with Dr. Pepper

Of course if you don't prefer Dr. Pepper I can also refer you to Dr. Quinn,
medicine woman or russian icon Dr. Zhivago. It's your choice, my friends!

Lately here in the Za shack it has become much of a "one-man" show. No more
weekly gaming sessions, crazy ZaFests with even stranger prizes, or even fun
with Euchre or Uno. How lonely. Well, in the past few months yours truly
(the Za Meister himself) has prepared himself...and his close friends for
Stage 2 of TZE (Total ZA Enjoyment). Not all details of Stage 2 are yet
known, but I can leak a few bits 'n' pieces of info out to you guys (don't
tell my boss!)

-I am getting a REAL job and will get to take home a REAL paycheck. Which
means that in the next few months, I will be able to expand mein Reich
(german for my kingdom) larger than ever thought possible. I really don't
know when I'm gonna move out -- hopefully I'll save up enuff in the coming
months (or years, but hopefully not too many) to put a down payment on a
house of my own, or somethin' like that...(forget that rentin' craaap).
This probably means that much of the ongoing activities will still be taking
place here in the basement.
-My parents are most likely going "out west" for a large portion of the
summer! (they're retired and have enuff $$$ to do whatever they want :) --
So really I'll have full-reign of the house and everything, so at least I'll
be able to feel of "owning" a home before I actually purchase one. This is
coolness to the max.
-The extent of computer gaming, ZaFests, and all the details remain to be
seen...since I don't know "exactly" what the situation will be like in the
coming months. I plan to work a "fireman" shift (72 hours one week,
followed by a week totally off), so once I get my schedule you can mark your
calendars!!!
-I'd like to keep the theme for this summer "simple, but fun". As we all
have heard me say...the simple things are what make us the happiest -- but
of course it wouldn't be complete without some big-time events! Plans are
currently in the making, and as far as I can tell...the path ahead is clear.

Ok -- enuff of what my plans are: I'd like to hear about some of yours!
Please respond with anything you'd like to tell the ZA community, and make
sure to include everyone else with your reply (it isn't fair to keep ppl in
the dark :)

I wanted to write something weird tonight...and I think I failed. I may
possibly put something more out later on.
