Casey's kettle corn is better than I expected. It was the freebie today with a instore purchase and the offer saved on the Casey's app.

I had to work today, knew nothing until a friend texted me the final. It doesn't hurt as much when you only know the score. On to BB.

Not exactly sure.
Went to a HS game last night and they started off the Varsity warmup with Up IN Here by DMX. I wondered how far that song would go, and not long was the answer.

Told the wife why this one woman she knows is single. She caught me while I was just killing time for a bit drinking coffee. I don’t know if I had the look but all that went through my head was, I wonder when she will stop talking. Not the first time this has happened.

Overwhelmed right now. Anxiety and depression at all time high since my daughter moved back in with us. Need something to lighten my mood.
Have you checked with your doctor?

I had the idea to get a smaller real Christmas tree for a side room (normal size fake one/main attraction is in the living room). Stopped and got a stand today and after nap time we went to go get one...they ran out 25 minutes before we got there. Looked up another close by tree farm and they closed earlier in the day as well. Welp maybe next year.

I miss having a real Xmas tree.. Loved the smell, and the nostalgia. Hated the dropped needles. Wife insisted we get an artificial one about 7 years ago.

So she's single because she doesn't shut up?

Not yet. Takes forever to get an appointment these days. I do think I need a meds check.

Need humor.
I miss the smell of a real tree as well. We switched clover because of all the cats. Had to stop using icicles too. Glitter poop is strangely, but you haven't lived until you have chased a cat around the house that has half of a strand of bicycle hanging out of his butt...

Do you hang lights on the clover? Seems like it would be rather smallish.

I mentioned missing that evergreen smell elsewhere, and one helpful soul recommended placing lighted scented candles around the house. Yeah...I can see THAT working well. What part of seven cats was unclear?

Do you like someone who just starts babbling non stop? Sometimes I honestly hope the person forgets to breath and passes out so I can scurry away.
No, I'm a quiet guy and I can only handle socializing for so long. Not everything and everyone needs to be talked about. My aunt is like that. She could have a one sided conversation with you for 8 hours. At holidays, the time between her deciding to go home and actually going home is 2-3 hours.
