Gave the daughters old BF a gun I bought him before they broke up. I wanted to wait till he was old enough and 22 seems right. The ex texted, calling him an azz and talking about how he cheated on her. Told her that I could sympathize. She shut up for some reason. Karma doesn't always show up how you expect it

It seems like Happy Hour is in order. I think I will have a Modelo whilst I prepare dinner.

After what I went through late last year I understand completely.

I am preparing the missus a nice big salad with marinated chicken. I am having scallops and shrimped steamed with Old Bay then drenched in a sauce I made with cocktail sauce, sriracha and hot horseradish with Brussels sprouts on the side.

Brussel sprouts are at the top of my veggie list. Don't tell Stan, he thinks it's fried okra.

we would meet every morning before our driving duties to bullshit and carry on. Drink coffee and bitch about what we endured the previous day. Just the three of us.
I sometimes wish that coffee time was never ending.
