Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

My mood in the first half...

Wife bought new water glasses. They taper to the top and are kinda difficult to drink out of. It is like using a fluted champagne glass to drink water. Your nose hits the top side as you drink so you kinda got to tip it just right to drink from them

How DARE you?

'K, you're not wrong. Between the size of my head and my hair, I really can't wear a ball cap.

1) If you ever visit KC, go to the WWI museum off of Pershing Rd downtown. If it's a nice day, pay the extra for the tower view.
2) High Hopes ice cream off of Troost. Very good ice cream, flavors are a little "off the wall" ala Outside Scoop in Ankeny. (They have traditional Vanilla/strawberry/chocolate, but they also had cinnamon & honey, and strawberry birthday cake)

Okay, my dog really is an Ahole. She sat outside sunning herself nice and quiet. Then lets out one or two barks and gets all the neighborhood dogs going nuts, she then turns and wants inside and lets the rest of the dogs go crazy barking.

My brother and his wife is coming into town and my house is a cluttered mess. Was trying to get some stuff uncluttered but the only thing that would really work is a dumpster and get rid of 25 years of accumulated crap

Hire a cleaning service. They aren't that expensive. Or you could find a meth head to clean (just don't leave valuables out). They are so jacked up that they would go at double speed cleaning. Sometimes that 200-300 dollars spent to hire someone really helps and gets you back on track. You've had some trials you've had to deal with lately, it is totally fine to hire someone. Especially if they will wear that naughty french maid outfit.

BC’s completely factual and image-provoking last sentence aside, having someone come in and do what you want done would be great. You can make the decisions while others do the actual work. It’s so easy to get caught up in one or the other and end up feeling like you got nothing accomplished.

Not only have I been successful in having 2 of my children attend ISU (honestly no pressure on them, I let them decide and do visit other schools) but my third has said he plans on going to ISU. My oldest even had the same major. My youngest is now considering it also. Although he is the smartest, he could go engineering or even more advanced if he decided to.

Edit: I do try to show sympathy to my wife though because there are times when the oldest two and I will have discussions about classes/buildings/bars in Welch and such and my wife can’t join in.

Mmmmmm........no.

That is my bed-head, though.

While moving clutter from one spot to another I found my ISU stocking cap that I hadn't seen since most likely the cold wet Drake football game.

I remember that game. Security didn’t even look in bags and just waved us in.

Well my good day at work turned south in the end. Took a hour and a half to finally finish. UGH.

I pulled up to park and the woman that got out of the car in front of me looked at my license plate and said you didn't have anything better to do today? I told her in a lifetime of bad decisions, what's one more?

Raising a glass to the end of your workweek (hopefully) from the place with expensive beer in KC’s P&L district.

Oh, THAT place?

I know which place you're talking about.

About half asleep in my lawn chair here. A goddam bird landed on the arm.

In my foggy state I thought a 5 foot tall cardinal landed on my patio.

I know my heart still beats fast when needed

I had two clutter spots I tasked myself to clean up over this break week. I've added a little clutter to each one instead.

Honestly, that could be any one of them!

I'll be having a Ames Lager once I get my niece's. Put them on ice this morning.
