So I went on a thing, went to a place, then did another thing, which turned the the first thing into a third thing........
The minister was "almost, but not quite entirely unlike" a Vegas Elvis. I had to buy and wear actual pants!!

Free advertising. I'd recommend them, though.
My Aussie Redhead came over for three weeks to see a bit of 'Murrica, and to meet my brother who teaches at UNLV, whom I somehow had not seen since 2004.
After some snafus that kept us stuck in Savannah for over a week, we embarked on the mad dash across the continent by car, which gave us time to eventually realize that we could get married in Vegas, Vegas style.
No, this does not get me down to Australia any quicker or any easier, as I won't get by their physical requirements as I need both knees replaced. Because my knees are so bad, I had to drop down to part time at the day job, which meant I lost insurance there. The new one wants me to lose another 30 pounds, even though I was only a few pound short of the goal required by the previous one. I do not see Australia giving me some sort of medical waiver over something that is so expensive.
On the techy nerd side of things, I brought my DSLR, both my laptop and my Chromebook, but oddly I left my extr4a backup phone at home. My camera had a aperture block failure at the Grand Canyon, but my V30 has a very capable camera. The laptop came out of the case once, and then I only charged it. The 500e touchscreen Chromebook came out sometimes, as I could do a few tasks for my second job when I got ....bored??
As my knees are so bad, I overestimated how much walking I could do, but it soon became obvious I was in trouble there, so I didn't get any pictures from Graceland or Sun Studios, or New Orleans. Mrs claydoh got shots there with her iPad.
I have been back in town for about a week now, and seem to not really care too much about computer-ing and the like, for some reason. Riding my bike has been an ordeal due to the knee pain, which is strange as pedaling usually helps keep thing from getting to the unbearable stage too quickly.
I just found out I will have to move out of the room I am renting and find a new place by the end of the year, to boot.
Anyhoo, enough of this for now, gotta get back to job #3.....
