PiL
Day 120 of 365.
I took a break from the computer for a few days, so here begins a posting of the backlog of YIP photos. Friday, we went to Pittsburgh to see the legendary PiL, Public Image Limited, the band of John Lydon (ol' Johnny Rotten) after the Sex Pistols broke up.
I never thought to have a chance to see them, so I was bound to have a good time, but I was unprepared for how great of a performer John Lydon is. They played many of my favorites, like "This is Not a Love Song", "Death Disco", and "Warrior".
I'd forgotten how sometimes the energy of live shows carry you along and make you part of something. I've missed this.
And I am reminded to never surrender.

Day 119
Day 119 of 365 - which was yesterday - but I'm a day off my posting. I expect to be caught up by the end of the weekend.
Anyway. These are my office mates. They're awfully glad the semester is over, and so am I! In a short while Dr. Nick and I are off to Pittsburgh overnight to eat good food and see Public Image Limited in concert! Woo!

And now for something somewhat, but not entirely, different ...
benched, but not out of the game
Day 116 of 365.
I started subbing some water aerobics at the YMCA today; it felt good to get into the water after nearly 2 months away! Unexpected side effect - tender feet!
I feel a bit like I'm sidelined until I'm through with the semester - and it's merely days away - but I'm SO READY to be done.

I'm taking a short break from the Hateful Paper of Doom (or HPod if you prefer) to post a photo before I forget. I can't get behind, here. Anyway, one more intensive weekend of sucky, hateful schoolwork and then I'm done. DONE. (At least until fall). I'm trying to hang on to that.

Montgomery in the morning
Day 111 of 365.
I was too sleepy to upload and post a photo last night, so you'll get two today as a result. I did SHOOT this one yesterday, that counts, right?
I went to Montgomery, WV, home of WVU-Tech, to go to work with Dr. Nick yesterday and take a long lunch with he and his coworkers in Fayetteville. I do enjoy getting out of Charleston.

Rockin Hair Boutique
A bonus for you - excellent signage at the Rockin Hair Boutique! I am a new customer here, but a very satisfied one, and definitely a convert. The owner-stylist, Jayna, is great. Visit it in South Charleston, WV for a great haircut/color!
Oh, and the Rockin Hair Boutique concept is trademarked & copyrighted. Imitators beware! Accept no substitutes
