when I was just about - and twice at that

Last night, I was just about to drive to the SF club's monthly meeting when my cell phone went off. It took one hour to resolve the issue with our computer system, but I managed to miss only the first 30 minutes of the meeting. I had a very good time, and some of us were just about to go to a restaurant for a late-night snack when my phone went off again, but because of a completely different problem. My disappointment must have been quite obvious because one of the ladies gave me a hug. I went home, had to stay home until 2am. Luckily there had been that hug.

I was looking forward to watching NetFlix's BluRay of "Dragon Wars". Every time it showed up on the Skiffy Channel, I always caught it at the very end, but that was enough to make me think this might be one of the Channel's very few worthwhile movies on the subject, or one of their very few worthwhile movies. Period. Alas, the disk has a big crack in it so that's that. Luckily "A Bug's Life" is on TV.
