• Vegas Hotel – Thoughts from September 14 and 15, 2022

  

  September 14, 2022 Patti is in the middle of trying to watch TV with no power. It’s 10:40 pm, and the power has been out since about 9:00 pm. This is a planned outage, so it hopefully won’t be out until the estimated 5:00 AM time. I showed Patti how to tether her phone with…

• Anxious Nerd – Thoughts from August 28 to September 8, 2022

  

  August 28, 2022 I think I used to be more of a nerd, but now I’m just a recovering nerd. Reading back on my Thoughts papers tells me how much of a nerd I was. I talked about working on computers and other nerdy technical issues I was dealing with. Today, my nerdiest issues are…

• Staring at Your Phone – Thoughts from August 23 and 25, 2022

  

  August 23, 2022 I just saw a large gentleman wearing black shorts with white socks that went all the way up his legs until they disappeared into his shorts. What is the use of wearing shorts if you’re going to cover up your legs with socks. Besides the fact that it looks completely ridiculous, it…

• Test Results – Thoughts from July 26 and 28, 2022

  

  July 26, 2022 I really should save this thought until tomorrow, but I had it today so screw you, Tomorrow. It involves the number 27. I think we should declare the age 27 as the early change of life. I got married when I was 27 so that was a definite change for me. Many…

• Sugar Makes Me Fat – Thoughts from July 23, 2022

  

  Today I feel fat. I’ve felt fat because my scale said I was fat. My stomach feels like someone attached a sandbag to the inside of my skin. All of this fat shaming is to say that I need to change my routine on my days off. I’ve said this before and here I am…

  July 14, 2022 Patti was having me put in for time off for her birthday in September and she had me going back to work the day after we drive back from Vegas. She does this often. She tells me what days to take off, but doesn’t add a day at the end for me…

• Toilet Paper – Thoughts from July 11 and 13, 2022

  

  July 11, 2022 I don’t know if I’ve talked about this, but I’m an over-wiper. I’m not happy until I see next to nothing on the toilet paper. It makes me wonder if other people even look at the toilet paper after they wipe. I also stand when I wipe. I guess my wiping style…

  July 3, 2022 Yesterday was my birthday, and I celebrated with sushi and gambling. It was the big five two. It was my last day of being off from work with COVID. I’m back to work today. I always worry that my ID won’t work when I’ve been off for a while, but it worked…

• Covid-19 – Thoughts from May 30 and June 23, 2022

  

  May 30, 2022 Today started out crappy. I got a negative comment about the book The New Jim Crow about how racism has changed since the days of Jim Crow laws, but it still exists. The comment simply said, “ridiculous.” It was from an older man with Air Force on his baseball cap. Originally, I…

  April 30, 2022 This past Wednesday, Patti and I got our second booster shots. On Thursday, I did yard work and was going to go out grocery shopping, but found my whole body was in pain and I just wanted to sit down. Admittedly, I sat down on the squishy couch so I got more…
