That's right. I'll be spending the next seven days drinking myself into a blissed-out stupor. My younger sister Beth is scheduled to arrive in town from Colorado at 7 p.m. today. I'll be taking her to see our pal (and Blind Pig recording artist) Damon Fowler perform Wednesday at Green Iguana in Ybor City.

On Thursday, we'll be going to Inkwood Books for a talk/book signing by William McKeen, author of Outlaw Journalist: The Life and Times of Hunter S. Thompson. Look for my interview with McKeen in the CL that hits newsstands Wed. My mom is trying to get us to go to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon for a day but I'm trying to talk her out of it. Rather just hit Adventure Island.

Anyway, I'll be doing some light blogging but not much else. I did however, manage to knock out a Bar Tab that will run Wed. OK, well, it's way past noon, time to make myself a tasty beverage.
