Riding the Pain Train

It's been a horrible week, for a number of reasons. Some self inflicted, some not. I've been fighting a cold and stomach bug nearly all week. It's not the coof.

Alexa no longer works here

I've fired Alexa. I had high hopes. Bought all the cool intelligent home gadgets. But Herself didn't like Alexa and Alexa didn't like here. Wouldn't listen to her. And Alexa needed to stick her fingers in every smart home account to make them work. You see, Alexa can't do shit on her own. And you … Continue reading Alexa no longer works here →

My HEB Adventure

I thought I wrote about this. Damn, I'm old. I go to doctors a lot. It's what happens after cancer therapy. You collect doctors. In this case a cardiologist. Not that anything's wrong.

Shark Attack

More like a whiff. I bought a shark robit vac to keep up with the mess around here. It does a decent job. Dogs run in with wet paws, it dries, shark hoovers it up with dog hair then dumps it in it's dust bin that I empty maybe once a week. It starts it's … Continue reading Shark Attack →

Tried to find it on his site, but it was probably on his telegram channel and quite frankly, I'm too lazy to search. BTW join that channel if … Continue reading Get to the Purnt, Edith… →

Well, that was exciting.

I do my best thinking while walking the dogs in the morning. This morning, I was thinking about how when I leave to walk the dogs, the people that are speeding down my street are the old timers, heading God-knows-where. They are ahead of the soccer moms as the most hazardous thing to pedestrians in … Continue reading Well, that was exciting. →
