Yeah, yeah. getting old. Should probably go and join the Geezers group. I keep meaning to, but every time I wander in, I forget why I'm there.
Good drill weekend. Spent it in Austin doing a lot of admin and stuff. More possible USMC work on the horizon. Not really what my plan was, but it looks like a cool job if it does happen....

Mother's Day has been making me reflect on the early days of our son's life. You were the perfect guest for a brand-new family. Thanks for coming and staying with us last summer. And thank you for the delightful gifts at Christmas. That teething toy goes on every trip with us, and is a major favorite.
We're planning some trips to Bee's cabin for this year and wanted to mention that if you manage another trip to California, we'd love to bring you up there and drag you around Yosemite.

Geez. I'm not really around here as much anymore. just check in on friends and groups.
Been keeping busy at work. lots of demo work this week, which is fun, but tiring. swinging the hammer and cuttin' up sheet metal.
Drill this weekend. Be a Marine for a couple of days including a PFT (physical fitness test). Not looking forward to the three mile run....

OK well it's been a while. I got back home a long time ago from New York, but I had such a great time there that I left that blog post up to smile at in the meantime.
and I'm lazy.
Just finished getting through the first batch of photos from the trip and I'll start uploading those tonight, I suppose. Keeping busy lately. Started...

It's kind of odd that I have bunnies yet don't celebrate Easter, isn't it? 
Happy bunny themed, spring fertility festive and/or Easter to you, too!

In New York! Didn't sleep much night before the flight due to amazing thunder storms that shook the house all night. Wandered around the city f with friends and now ready for day two.

Got my eyes lasered on Wednesday. Still a fair amount of discomfort in my eyes, but my vision has cleared up amazingly. Had a follow up the day after the procedure and I had 20/30 vision in my right eye and 20/15 in my left and it's improved in my right eye noticeably since then.

Dropping a lot of the money I saved up from deployment this week. I guess it's going towards good (if not really necessary) things.
I was given a couple of computer games for Christmas that are just beyond what my laptop that I use for a desktop can handle, so I am went online and had a rig built to specs that shouldn't need to...

Gonna be in recovery most of the day. Must rest and hydrate.
Hope everyone had a fantastic New Year's Eve and made it home safe and sound to their bed...or someone's at least.
May this next trip 'round the sun be full of good health, adventure and fun, and love for all of us.

Ok. update time. Haven't been up to too much. Enjoying lazing about the house with the dogs as much as I can. Doing a lot on the computer. Enjoying the hunt for gifts for friends and family. So far, I've managed to find everything that I wanted to get people online, which is really nice. Amazon and Etsy sellers made a fair amount off of...

That tree looks awesome. Hope you had a great Xmas and got some quality riding in!

Can't wait to see you, my friend! Keeping an eye out for good stuff to see/do while you're here, but obviously, whenever you're up for museum browsing I'm in. I'm renewing my MoMA membership.
Looks like you had a festive Christmas! Love your tree and decorations. Hope your New Year's madness goes well, too!

it is becoming clear that I am not so used to sitting around the house doing nothing. Left on my own today I worked out a couple of time for lack of something to do, cleaned up the house, and cooked a 4 pound brisket with roasted red potatoes in an au jus gravy and some vegetables..asparagus, corn, and carrots.

Last day of active duty completed yesterday! Got home after a bone-chilling ride down from Austin. Turns out 40 degrees, drizzle, and 20mph winds do not make for a fun ride. Remedyed the chill with three bean and bacon soup with fresh chopped onion and cilantro. Then some coffee. Then a nap on my new bed...after I checked it for mouse traps and shockey traps...

May I humbly suggest a trip to visit the lovely city of Portland, Oregon? We've got beer, strippers and good times.

Maybe the firmer memory foam is the way to go.
I did a bunch of nothing over Thanksgiving, and after working my ass off for far too long, it was all kinds of awesome. Hope yours is just as awesome.

The foam mattress can take a couple of nights of getting acclimated but it's true that you'll wake up with your back not being all sore and stiff. My back problem evaporated when I switched over. I need a new computer too, after 5 years the MacBook isn't cutting it anymore. You should splurge on a vacation some place with beautiful women to bring you tasty beverages. Or you can borrow my dream vacation and go to the underground caves in Vietnam that have whole forests in them.

So how to you like the memory foam? Apparently you either love it or hate it. I dated a guy who had it . . . and it turned out I hated it. And he hated my mattress b/c it wasn't memory foam. Sex on memory foam is kind of weird, too.
