it's a convoluted mess
… Minnesota Weather Update: It hasn’t snowed in over a week now. The lawn service guys were out doing their preliminary spring cleanup, which is usually a sign that it’s not going to snow anymore. We’ve finally had weather warm enough again to open the windows, but it was raining so I still couldn’t open the windows. Unless I want rain in my house and we have enough problems with water pouring in where it… Keep reading…Straight into the ground…
March. Alright then. … Closing Time came out 25 years ago today. First of all, rude. Second, this means that this June marks twenty-five years since I graduated high school. Third, Hunter turned 25 years old in January. As I said, RUDE. … Last weekend marked four months since Joe died. We got together at my parents’ house on Saturday to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday (the 5th). EIGHTY. Neither of my parents are interested… Keep reading…Move it to the exits…

And by that, I mean the hot mess of a website… Keep reading…Never gonna make it stop…
August is almost over and I actually considered just saying FUCKIT to the July Last.fm stats, but here we are. Week 75…76…whatever… Everything is still shitty so we’re still counting weeks. Anyway. It has actually rained a few times in the last week (there is a whole lot of rumbling thunder as I type) so the humidity is up to make the incessant 80/90-something temperatures more disgusting. But the extended forecast is promising a drop… Keep reading…No need to analyze…
Three posts in the same month? Don’t get too excited now. I’m just working through my Year In Review bullshit and we’ll be back to my normal bullshit in no time. Week 41… I think. Or the top of 42. Depending on what day I finally hit publish. Whatever. It’s January. It’s a new year. It’s the same shit on a different date. We had sixteen days of vacation, doing our usual of avoiding people,… Keep reading…Look a little bit older…
