Saw this dude on my car today: I have Mantis', I have ladybugs and dragon flies. There have to be at least a half dozen decent sized chameleons around here, as well as a few ghekos. Love having bug predators getting fat at my place.

Stuff’s Breaking all Over
I was chatting with the fellas while volunteering at the Church this Sunday about doing house maintenance chores. What started the conversation is this: Busted What's that you say? That is a torsion spring. It balances the weight of a garage door. Without them, the door weighs like three tons. I hit the button Saturday … Continue reading Stuff’s Breaking all Over
Jasper Update
I got an update from the family what adopted Jasper. If you want to catch up, you can here, here, and here. I hadn't heard anything since the first two weeks. They had some usual dog adoption things. Jasper is a man's dog, a ferrari. If you aren't a dog person, adopting him is like … Continue reading Jasper Update
Funny Update
Remember this? Funniest thing I've seen all week. The city showed up to fix the damage from the numbnuts that wiped out the street sign. They cut off the bent up parts and stuck it back in the ground. The stop sign is now at my eye level - around six feet. Fuck me. I … Continue reading Funny Update
Herd People
Vox Day had a great post Tuesday. First time I saw the term "Herd People". What a great term. It doesn’t matter how smart you are if you are psychologically unable to analyze anything outside of what previously recognized authorities have told you to believe: Vox Day I run into these types all the time. I used … Continue reading Herd People
Woketarded
We spent some time with friends this weekend. After dinner we were chatting and catching up. Turns out their daughter, who's in college, calls her dad and chastises him about his white privelege. This couple is younger than us, lives in a modest house in the neighborhood that they, no doubt, bought long before the … Continue reading Woketarded
Protecting the Flock
We had two of the grandkids overnight this weekend. Aria, who's a bit unpredictable with kids was sent to visit her mom. Jethro adores the grandkids and follows them everywhere, which kind of freaks them out. Sizewise, it would be like a pony following me around. We took the kids to the park, walking there … Continue reading Protecting the Flock
It’s Raining
Sunday night, the temperature dove, and it started raining. Not a deluge, just a good, old fashioned soaking rain, which lasted well into the next day. https://vimeo.com/742056359 So that marks this summer as a typical North Texas summer. We had nearly two months of 100+ heat. Then, rain and lower temps. It's supposed to rain … Continue reading It’s Raining
Gonna Be a Great Weekend, Tater.
Last week we got rain. No shit. Just like in the movies where it starts raining and people start bawling. 45 minutes of rain, and then under 100 temps. This week, Same thing. Rain. Then it barely hit 90 today. It felt like we won the lottery. When actually it's just Texas weather. A month … Continue reading Gonna Be a Great Weekend, Tater.
Gross and Stupid
Just when you think things couldn't get worse, you stumble upon something so idiotic that it further sinks your faith in humanity. Let's talk about Vabbing. I can't remember whose blog on my roll I first saw this. That said, vabbing is where you, as a woman, dig your booger picker into your female apparatus, … Continue reading Gross and Stupid
