… The animals are acting crazy. I think they sense an imbalance in the force. The dark side is growing in strength. Oh, wait. That was probably racist. Anyway, the coyotes are getting braver. They howled and yipped all night in my back yard. Talk about creepy. And it would appear I have a lady bug infestation. And this morning a raccoon tried to throw itself in front of my riding lawnmower. And I bird flew into my kitchen window.... Read more

… the Whiskey Advent calendar! But wait, did you say you prefer Gin? You’re welcome. Thanks, Will. You have my undying gratitude for making this the hap-happiest time of the year. Read more
… Typically I do a single stupid thing on any given day. Today was exceptionally rare. This morning I went outside to take out the trash. It was still dark when I heard a loud crashing noise coming from the wooded area in the back yard. What the hell was that, I wondered out loud. I turned and was face to face with this… UNHOLY BEAST!

… No? Well, too bad. My blog. So I just finished reading a Clash of Kings, book 2 in the series, and I was all hyped to sit down and watch Season 2. I got out my television series watching provisions – wine and chocolate – and readied myself for a Game of Thrones marathon. But noooooooooooooo. Is it showing on Netflix? Nope. Hulu? Nada. Amazon? Not there. How about iTunes. Nothing. Not even on HBO unless you’re a subscriber.... Read more
… What is it about “rent is due on the first of each month and late after the fifth” that is so damn hard to understand?! If it’s November 6th, guess what, your rent is late and you pay a late fee. Every month it’s the same thing, and the same people. They come strolling in the day after the fifth and act all surprised and indignant when I tell them they need to pay a late fee. They even...

… Please no election related captions. I’ve had all I can take. I’ve done my patriotic duty and voted. Now I’m going to do what I do every election… eat chocolate, drink beer, and go to bed early. Wake me up when it’s over. The winning caption gets props on my blog. What? You thought there’d be real prizes? Read more
… So yesterday I had about 4 hours to kill while waiting in line to early vote. While I was there I met a lovely young black woman wearing a t-shirt that said “They stole us. They sold us. They OWE us.” and I thought; gee, she looks stunning for being over 150 years old! I’m guessing she was about that age since slavery was abolished in 1865. Hey, don’t let history get in the way of your overwhelming sense... Read more
