    The headache is back. It’s resumed it’s roll of torment right behind my left eye.   The shoulder is tightening up.   Feeling a little nauseous too.  Not sure what’s wrong. I haven’t checked the weather outlook lately, but maybe there’s another Barry brewing somewhere.      This sucks. It’s kind of like being sick and being Read more

  • Observations of NieR Automata

    I’m not playing the game — just observing. There’s a couple of things that I’m not quite following. A2 definitely has emotions. Even the little sister called her grumpy lady and she’s distinctly unfriendly with most people, notably Nines at this point, but I’m sure that’ll change.  Grumpy Lady packs a lot of sarcasm. I Read more

    Scrub-a-dub-dub. Fresh off my triumph of doing yard work yesterday without it raining — take that 70% chance —  I decided to double down and do some yard work today as well.     Out I went! Since I mowed the yard, weeded, and did some other stuff yesterday, I did what Frank suggested.    Off Read more

  • 7/11 pt 2

    I actually did something today besides scrub the bathroom floor, dust the ceiling fans, and look dubiously at the dates on can goods. Despite the cloudy sky, I wheeled the lawn mower out and went to work.    I got the back yard a few days ago between raindrops, so I only needed to do Read more

  • 7/11

    Today should be a special day for 7/11 employees everywhere. It fits.   Free slushies for everyone! Yesterday was Chick-fil-a’s Cow Appreciation Day.  Since any corporation or organization can declare (or own) a specific day or an entire month, 7/11 should be able to do so to… if they haven’t already had. Another day of self Read more

    I’m feeling better today. The neck still hurts – both sides – but it’s a dull twinge.   The headache is missing.  I’ll consider that a win.  I don’t know if I’m getting better because the storm front changed or I slept on it differently. I’ve been sleeping a lot over the past couple of days.  Read more

    I got the back yard mowed before it rained.   Ha ha! Course, it’s the front yard that really needed, but I did the back yard.  The front yard will be tomorrow, providing there are 12 hours or so without rain so the yard will dry up a bit. I know the weather is crazy all Read more

    Odd day. Odd weekend. Because of the Fourth, Jason had four days off from work.   We pretty much spent them in each other’s company.  Four days of 24 hours of me all the time.    Wow.   I feel sorry for him when I think about it.   I wouldn’t want to be alone Read more

  • Lipstick on a Pig

    I’m sure that AOC has a reason for preferring that particular red shade of lipstick.  Occasionally, I think there’s some type of berry shade, but 99% of the time it’s are bright and potent red. It’s one of her more notable features.   It gains attention to her, particularly her mouth.  By association, I think it Read more

    I got a wild hair up my butt today and called a plumber. Floridians tend to have this unique way of setting up their washer and dryer – in the garage… which is really weird for anyone up north. Anyway, for some time now when the washer drains, the water backs up into the utility Read more
