    I just realized we ate all our leftovers tonight and never came up with a plan for dinner tomorrow night. Suspected there might be pork chops in the freezer. Sure enough...


    They're in the RTIC 20 with ice and water. No idea what to do for sides, but I'll figure that out tomorrow.

    Our daughter came by this afternoon, raided our fridge, took my leftovers I had planned for dinner tonight.
    My ribs dammit.
    They were great.
    I applaud your daughter.  I always took uncooked protein from my dad's freezer.  Her method is much better.

    Somehow pride is not working for me at this moment.....LOL, hunger is.
    We had to work at the radio station last night for the pledge drive, so we went out to dinner afterwards.
    I hate dining out these days. Just hate it.
    Glad to know our little princess ate well.

    I‘m working at the West Palm VA today. I saw a guy wearing a “Navy Submarine Service” cap.  I asked him if he knew @lousubcap or @CTMike and even Mortimer.  Sadly he didn’t.

    And just like that Ron’s famous BB bourbon slushies this year will be made with half a bottle of peach schnapps and the last few splashes of a vermouth bottle. 
    Let us not be harsh and judgmental, Vermouth and peach schnapps can be refreshing.....said nobody. Ever.

    I am heading to Costco to get the bourbon needed for this frozen concoction.
    buying a case or two should get it done I think......we will be making several batches.

    Just realized my new (to me) ride maxes out at 99 degrees, so that's what I'll be seeing for the next 5-6 months.  

    Anyone wanna trade weather?  It's too soon for this nonsense.

    So they actually think their business will survive selling only unbaked cookie dough?  Genius!  They are the next Steve Jobs!

    There's a joke in some movie about how the city manages to dye the river green on St Patty's day, and why can't they figure out a way to dye it blue on all of the other days?  ;)

    It's a great city - I love it too.  I'm just thankful to be here before the terrible weather that is coming in over the next couple of days.  Actually quite nice here today.  Cool, but sunny with blue skies.

    Well, the hits keep coming.  Had scheduled water works to come to the house and dig up the cap for the shutoff valve. 

    Then my plumber can shut it off, make the repairs and I can move on with getting the fridge installed.

    Well……….Get an email from waterworks:

    A Greater Cincinnati Water Works representative arrived to the property and found the curb box obstructed and in need of repair.  An order has been submitted to have a team make repair to the curb stop so that water may be turned off.

    Who knows how phucking long this is going to take.  I have a home in complete disarray, and am now dependent upon water works and a plumber to have a fridge installed.  If things keep up at this rate they’ll all schedule the work for next week and I’ll be at home instead of BB coordinating everything.  FML.
