Closer still…

Everything I’ve tried to write here recently has been nothing but bitch, bitch, whine, bitch, whine, bitch, whine. I’m kind of sick of myself to be honest. Ech. Anyway. Bob sent me this on Discord. Then I turned my head to the left to see smiling snoot. He also sent me this without context. Because why does a frog riding a goose need any context? Today after he wrapped up work he was futzing around… Keep reading…Closer still…

Up for grabs…

March. Okay. It is currently sixty-seven degrees outside. The rest of the week is going to be in the forties, but today I turned the furnace off and opened the windows.

August sucked extra hard this year. Anyroad. A few weeks back, Bob came home from work (first in a long time that he had to actually go into the office) and stated, “I feel like we need an owlbear around here.” So… S: To be fair, you… Keep reading…Can’t be denied…
