Dinner time. Interesting that they don't do this to me when I'm cooking. They were underfoot. So the Girl told them to beat it. So they go to the edge of the kitchen to watch.
EDC Woes
My EDC knife is a Kersaw leek: I actually have three of these on rotation. The black one you see here, a green one, and a silver one. Why? Because I lose them from time to time, I replace them, then they reappear. Usually under a couch or my truck seats. The current one that's … Continue reading EDC Woes
Aria’s Big Visit
Last Friday, I brought the old girl to the vet for her yearly visit. She's lost two pounds, which the vet was happy about. She also admired Aria's lady curves. She's a sharp looking dog. Weight control is easy with her. She rarely eats her whole breakfast, and sometimes doesn't eat it at all. She … Continue reading Aria’s Big Visit
Getting Fit
Another month, another weigh in. Same as always. I've been hovering at 200 for months now. I'm thinking the bulk of it is in my legs and shoulders. Now that it's cold, I've been wearing jeans. The same jeans that were loose on me at 185 fit the same at 200. I'd lean up if … Continue reading Getting Fit
Gratuitous Dog Pic
Who doesn't like a belly rub? It's easy to get pics of Winston doing funny things. He's a funny dude, and he's always hanging around. If you're watching TV, well, that's time for a belly rub, innit? Aria's an older lady. She'll be outside sitting or laying watching the yard, or on a bed snoozing.
Happy Halloween
Halloween is tonight. I have fond memories of Halloween. Growing up, We'd roast pumpkin seeds, my dad would start a fire, put on some Irish music, and prepare for the onslaught. There were a ton of kids in my neighborhood growing up. We, of course, hit the streets using pillow cases for loot. No cheap … Continue reading Happy Halloween
Got the Fatigue
SNAP benefits are supposed to run out this weekend. I found this on woodsterman. Is that so? Right up front you can see the idiocy here. Telling the world where you'll be and when to commit crimes is a rookie mistake. Didn't Jesus have a parable about this? If the master knew the time and … Continue reading Got the Fatigue
Fall is Here, For Sure
True to Texas form, the seasons change at the flip of a switch. So early in the week, it was cool and pleasant. The dogs love this weather. There's a snap in their steps while walking. Trash day walks are tough. Every bag must be inspected, and a lot of them are ripped open. I … Continue reading Fall is Here, For Sure
Gratuitous Dog Pic
Some context is needed here. I took this right after taking last weeks dog pic of Aria. I turned around to get back to my office, and there was Winston, smiling at me. That's what happens. I'll be doing something, look up, and there Winston will be watching me and wagging his tail.
Ripped Off
Over a month ago, I bought a few hats from these clowns. Within a week, I regretted it. Just like something else I found on Facebook, it looked like they drop shipped it from overseas, and I was in for a long wait for my stuff. Same dopey shipping process that sends endless updates. I … Continue reading Ripped Off
