Haircuts
What is it about me that dislikes going to get my haircut?? Been needing one for a week or two, but it’s always a struggle - ok, not always, since there have been times when I was getting my hair cut by the same person for years, and I didn’t dread going then. It’s just when I’m going to these non-appointment salons where you get a “new/different” person each time you go, that is when my … [Read more...]
Pinching pennies
Ordered something from Amazon the other day, it arrived last night, didn’t have to pay shipping due to Amazon Prime service. Item cost me ~10 bucks. It’s the wrong size (my fault, not theirs). Was about to return it, learned it was going to cost me $6 bucks to do that, as well as a trip to the UPS store. So, I can either order the right size version, and not return the wrong size, essentially … [Read more...]
Memory of first Target Greatland
Lump on a couch tonight. But here is a short story for you, before I turn on Season two of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” (Amazon Prime). I went to the newly remodeled Tar’get tonight after work for the first time since its reopening (of a few months ago). The store went from being a “Target Greatland” size, to a “Super Target” size. We actually have two Targets in AV, the one furthest from me … [Read more...]
Launching a thousand ships??
“He smiled up at Brigit from his seat beside the bed, her ample bosom framing her pissed-off expression perfectly. She was not a bad looking woman, truth be told; a couple of years older than himself, short brown bobbed hair, decent figure –she wouldn’t be launching a thousand ships any time soon but she’d undoubtedly create a fair bit of interest in a chip shop queue”. ==== “Launching a … [Read more...]

Reading glasses
Broke my last spare pair of reading glasses an hour ago. Big sigh. I knew I should have gotten the two dozen value pack. 😱🙄😉🤓🙁 Well, I’m off to either CVS, or Sam’s Club. Fortunately, last night’s snow storm is over and the roads have been cleared, and it’s a balmy 30 degrees out there. 🤓 … [Read more...]
Funny story – not mine
true story. Ok, it’s not my true story, but someone’s, maybe, I think. I was at a local bar when a woman at a table a few feet away from me sneezed and her glass eye came out and I caught it. I handed it back to her and she popped it in and said thank you. She was a beautiful woman. Gorgeous face stunning body and a beautiful smile to boot. The woman of my dreams right in front of me. A few … [Read more...]
Sleeping in bed
Feet, in bed, in the middle of the night, are just like dogs, as soon as you let them out (from under the covers), they want to come back in again. In, out, in, out - MAKE UP your mind, darn it all! 👣🔥👣⏳🌬👣⏳🌋👣⏳⛄️ 🗿🚧🗿🚧🗿🚧🗿 🙁😱🙄😉🤓 … [Read more...]
NASA probe lands on Mars – Conspiracy theory???
I live in a cocoon, my own little cocoon. Naively, I’ve lived in this cocoon thinking most people think like I do, that most people believe in Science with a Capital S. That most people do not believe the Conspiracy Theorists. The last 2-3 years have proven me vastly wrong in my view of the intelligence of people in these United States. [this is NOT a post about model railroading, nor is it about … [Read more...]
