Halito Toakers. Should be a nice day around here today....still not enough leaves to rake, but may take a quick pass. Late game last night....my Spartys lost....really played like crap. I know I should be positive and supportive, but I'm positive they played sloppy, turn overs, and I support Coach Izzo having some hard and tough practices for next game.

So you lucky ones who can still ride, enjoy! Remember I'm pulling for ya....we're all in this together.

Be joyful...he who laughs last laughs best.

Life's about Vincent Price laughs and Danny Kaye laughs.

Between the last couple months and the future outlook.... my love/hate relationship with my line of work is really leaning towards the hate side lately.

It's just bad news, after bad news, after bad news.

On top of that, Gab is dying to move into a house with suitable space for us. She's been dying for a couple of years honestly but I just keep pushing it off... don't think I can do that much longer. We started looking last week

I guess I better buckle up.

Two years in the guard and you qualify for a VA loan

My Dad gave me the best advice, applicable to marriage as well, once....Son, life is what happens to you while you're making other plans.

Morning, all.

As usual, I've left my end-of-year bike stuff to the very last second. I'm dodging the cold wx to take the scoot to the detailer today to be done tomorrow. I like to work on a clean bike over the winter, and today's temps are climbing into the upper 50s. Tomorrow will be warmer, but I have to werk.... The Miata goes to the same guy Thursday morning, when I'm supposed to trade it out with the bike, BUTT, there's snow forecast, temps topping out around 40, and maybe, hopefully, rain after that. I'll leave the Miata there. Ugh. The w/e looks better, but if there's salt on the roads, I won't ride home, rather, rent a trailer. One of these days, I'll break down and get a trailer, haha.

Why do I always do this??
