On Getting Old
Found this on Irish's place awhile back, thought I wrote about it, but I didn't. And here’s the kicker aging hits men differently than women, and it’s almost always framed negatively. Women get “wine nights,” “self-care Sundays,” and “50 & Fabulous.” We men on the other hand hit 40 and it’s dad-bod jokes, hairline memes, … Continue reading On Getting Old
Happy Thanksgiving!
It’s going to be a busy day. By the time this hits the interwebs, I'll be running in a 5K in Grand Prairie, my first. After that I need to get back, walk the dogs, and start cooking. I have a friend coming over, along with the girl. I have a lot to be thankful … Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving!
Range Report
Finally got to the range to try out the new pistole. That's my wingman taking aim. Those guts and headshots? They are my new bodyguard and my M&P shield .45, one handed. Man, that .380 barks. Shoots really well though. I brought my Bodyguard 2 (.380), Shield (.45), Buck Mark (.22) and my Bulldog (.44). … Continue reading Range Report
It’s About Time
Back when I first got Winston, he had a bit of separation anxiety. He chewed stuff. Like these: That's not an inexpensive pair of ropers. Look at the doofus in the background. I've just been wearing them anyhow. My pants leg covers them. But now, the soles are worn. They've had at least one new … Continue reading It’s About Time
Gratuitous Dog Pic
I miss Jasper.
On the mend
The lampshade lasted all of 15 minutes for the girl. She hasn't fooled with her stiches all week. So screwit. No lampshade. She's been a champ when it comes to her pills and eye drops. Hasn't put up a fuss at all. Back to herself by the next morning, doing all the things she normally … Continue reading On the mend
Done with Walmart
Made the mistake of hitting Walmart yesterday. Dumb move. I was only there for two things; Primo water refills, and Biotene spray, the spray I use to keep my throat from drying out at night. First thing out of the gate, I walked in with my empty water bottles, saw there were only two left, … Continue reading Done with Walmart
The Lampshade of Shame
Aria had her surgery yesterday. They had her all day "to watch". But in reality, I think they forgot to call me until nearly 5 PM. She was ready to go home. She's supposed to keep this thing on for ten days. At least the Vet said I could take it off if she was … Continue reading The Lampshade of Shame
But he talked purdy to me!
Turns out, before these commie mayors get sworn in, people are starting to figure out by electing the clown, they're going to get the whole circus. These guys replaced bumbling incompetent mayors with incompetent socialists. These are places where activists feel most safe and comfortable because they are protected by resident politicians and police. Blue … Continue reading But he talked purdy to me!
