Wednesday's Digressions

• Women with very aggressive personalities tend to have more and thicker hair in places where women would typically not want to have hair.
• An ex girlfriend with otherwise nice legs often missed shaving a small patch of hair in nearly the same place on the back of each leg. It was not horrifically repulsive but yeah- slightly gross when I would take note of it.
• Last night ( today is 08/28/2016) I watched the great movie Time Bandits. Did I know and had just forgotten George Harrison did some of the music for it? It starred the recently deceased Kenny Baker.
• Multiple times a year I have a dream where I navigate a super long trailer house (it is probably 200+ feet long) and encounter people from my past or alternatively- I enter rooms I recognize but people I associate with the room will not be there.
• An ex girlfriend came by last night after getting likkered up with her friend at a bar. She said, Pretty soon I won't be coming around here anymore. I will find somebody else. You don't have a claim on me.

• I just discovered I can do the registered and copyrighted symbols.
• Today I am going to swim, read, watch garbage movies and then- nap.
• That kids is what is known as a good day.

Monday's Missives

• Yesterday I thought about somebody I had not heard from in a long time and today out of the blue they left a comment here.
• Also yesterday I was reminded of the fact I could with just a few more credits have a couple of different associates degrees. Predictably, this morning there were 3 different ads or fake news ads related to higher education or online degrees on my browser. 
• The Internet is listening- always listening. 

  

  Honestly I cannot imagine why anybody would think anybody else would care about their corgi or stick figure family.

• About the cheapest you can buy K Cups is 50 cents a piece. Drink 2 and you could have had better coffee at McDonald's. Drink 3 and you're in the hole.
• I have got to make reservations for vacation.
• In another life for vacation we did not make reservations anywhere for 2 of the nights- we would be gone; trusting to God and luck for a place to crash. One hot, miserable night we camped. On the second we stayed in a dangerous looking motel that smelled of stale urine and despair. Honestly, the woman? behind the counter at first told us she had nothing to rent. She then came out and told us to come back as she, might have something... I think she at first thought we were narcs or at least rubes whose inevitable robbery and murders would get her dump shut down.
• Good times.

  

  I have drunk a lot of coffee in my life but I have never before seen unground beans in factory ground coffee. 

• In the kitchen with Rasta Man. 

Monday's Missives

• At Laquinta last night (today is 02/26/2017) the clerk asked if I want to be on the top floor? causing me to reply, Uh, why would I want that? genuinely puzzled. For him-he will love being on the highest floor. She was right- Zac thought it cool we were on the top floor but I thought it nice she knew that about kids (or even better-she guessed that about him specifically).
• This morning he raced me up to the room after breakfast. I took the elevator- he the stairs. I taught him this trip about always knowing where the stairs and exits are and never use the elevator in a fire. Funny thing about the way kids minds work- he presumed you use the stairs instead of elevator in a fire as the cable would burn and break and as a result the car would come crashing down.
• Interurban Grill in Ardmore is really good but has the typical smaller town Oklahoma restaurant terrible service . The décor is really cool. They have a penny farthing and a rowing skiff that had a sign on the side to the effect of Thames River Rowing Club. I don't know if it is real or not but most of the other decoration seems legit.
• Recently as I was getting to know a woman the subject turned to sex. She said she was not into anything kinky.
• Not my type.
• No, not really true I am not that shallow but it did momentarily and instantly change how I viewed her and cooled the warm thoughts I was developing and sending in her general direction. She even sensed it and asked, I'm sorry, do you think I am boring now?
• At the Lowes across the street there are palletized riding mowers and other implements stacked up and ready to go behind their building just waiting for the next crackhead with a bit of initiative and a truck to come along.
• Still sad- crackhead does not impress spellcheck. It just accepts it as a thing and goes on about its business without offering an alternative.
• Capacity at the pool here is denoted as, " Bathing Load 25 persons."
• Gross.
• I can guess in ways it is harder to keep an indoor pools chemistry balanced and this is only compounded if you have a spa collocated with it. This would be an intuitive observation as I literally have know idea what I am talking about. I could be convinced otherwise- I just guess it to be true as it seems too right.
• If money were no object I would have an indoor pool and spa and also an amazing outdoor pool and spa combo. I would not care anything about the chemistry- of any of it. Since cost is not an object- I would pay somebody to worry about that.
• The idea of taking note of up and coming people and buying associated domain names so that I could in turn sell the name to them when they run for office appeals to me for some reason.
• Zac is in heaven: 2 cool boys just left the pool after playing for 30-40 minutes. A few minutes after they walked out 3 gorgeous girls around his age walked in. He lit up like it was Christmas and is for some odd reason doing all his trick dives...
• Bill Paxton is dead. Game over man! He was raised in the Parker County area and I have heard his family owned Paxton Lumber in Fort Worth. He stole the show in Aliens, Tombstone and Edge Of Tomorrow. Dang, it is sad he is gone. He is another rare celebrity whose death shocked and saddened me.

Monday's Missives

• A favorite persom whom we called uncle (although he was an older cousin) has died. He was the last link of that sort to my childhood- no parents and no aunts and uncles are left. Unusual for me, I always thought in regards to him there would be more time - so I did not make any for him. He and I shared a hotel room at another family members funeral. He thought it was great and wanted to hang out more but we never did. 
• I did not have time for him.
• There has been a fly in my office for the past 2 days (today is 06/25/16). He has earned my grudging respect as he has survived my multiple efforts to murder-squish him.
• Alexander Von Humboldt called coffee "liquid sunshine".
• A neighbor is probably 70 years old and hot. No really- she is good looking and has a kinda rockin' body.
• A woman at the pool just (today is 07/01/2016 @1437) pulled 2 cigarettes out and after placing both in her mouth lit them together and then handed one to her mom.

Lip Read In My Breakfast Place

I hate this effing place.

Bravery

The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet, notwithstanding, go out to meet it.
