Excited to have, what should be, the final (excluding touch up) session for my chest piece tomorrow evening. It's seems like it's been forever.

While driving down the road, I saw a young man, about 22, walking down the street with a staff. A little over 6 foot long, finished in a dark mahogany and all knotty. It didn't have a glowing crystal on the end, but it did have a gnarled knot. Now, I'm not sure if there is a particular type of person that would normally walk...

Saturday afternoon I was driving up to Flint to run a bunch of errands and was listening to Public radio out of CMU which was having it's 2 or 3 hours of Hispanic music. I was never sure why the Midland area would have dedicated Hispanic music, and one of the public radio stations in the Detroit area wouldn't (maybe there is a large Mexican...

1. Don't go back to that house! You might not make it out alive lol
2. ...And now you know why I love Latinas...
3. $106! That's insane! Buy a horse, invent a jetpack or something. That is far too much money!

Vans with murals! Me and my buddies have a running inside joke involving an infatuation with vans with murals. Wizards, dragons, virgin princesses and late 70's full-size vans. Well, Saturday afternoon I was driving in Flint and saw a van with a mural, but it was a little different. It was a full-size chevy, but it was a mid-2000s and it had a so-so mural....

No good deed goes unpunished as they say, lol. I commend you for taking the time to look out for other people. Like PNP said, don't beat yourself up about it! You're doing the right thing so keep it up.
I have learned that the Kills recently recorded their 4th studio album near Benton Harbor, MI. I'm extremely excited that it will be released in April, but very depressed that I missed the opportunity to drive three hours to Benton Harbor and have a completely "chance" encounter with Alison and Jamie. 
I admire Mr. Hince for his musical and song writing skills. And Miss Mosshart...

I have got to start listening to more WDET! That little list of music is awesome!
What is criteria for determining when you have to leave a tip at restaurant?
For lunch today, the saddest Chinese girl in the world took my order at the carry-out restaurant. I swear that she was kidnapped from her family home in China and smuggled into America and forced to work in this tiny restaurant with three tables.

5x5, Generally I'm a very good tipper, bordering on overtipping. But my father-in-law is horrible, and I'm always afraid I'll be pegged guilty by association. Whenever we go out to eat, and I pay, but he insists on leaving the tip, he usually shorts the waitress. I can't stand it. So either I have to slip some extra cash in when he's not looking, or think of an excuse to go back to the table after we've got up to supplement his poor excuse for a tip. ha ha. I really should just call him out on it before he bust me adding the cash. But now it's more like a game.

I don't eat out very often so I usually tip rather generous. And upon occasion, I'll tip obnoxiously excessive just to see the look on the waitresses face. It really makes their night. Hey, it's only money, right?
Sweet baby, infant Jesus, I love spiral-cut smoked ham. I'm glad we only get this at the holidays or with respect to the 7 deadly sins the balance of my life would tip from leaning slightly towards lust and envy to that of being bottomed out at gluttony. 
Worst Christmas Karma. Tonight after putting a few bucks in the Salvation Army Kettle, I'm digging for my keys and the cardboard rips on the 12 pack of iced-tea in my other hand and ..... boosh! Cans across the parking lot. Then Sunday night we hit a 2nd Deer with the same vehicle in just over a month. This time on the other side of...

Went to the Tattoo Shop tonight to meet with my artist to see his version of my sketch for my chest plate. It turned out great and I'm very excited, unfortunately I'm not scheduled to start getting it done until January 19th. That's such a long time to wait! But both he and I are very pumped to do this.

Great day. Awesome snow-storm (I love winter). Took the boys to a the skating rink for a birthday party and got to skate myself (I used to work at a rink as a teenager so that's always fun to do). Washed my stinky, 80 pound dog. Now he's all fluffy, smells good, and huggable. Set up the Christmas tree and had some Egg Nog with...
