Community matters

No comments

Yesterday I was reminded how important neighbors and community can be. I was starting to doubt “people” in general after some strangers’ actions last Tuesday–they broke into our Rav4 and stole my wife’s purse, wallet, phone, and of course caused significant damage to our vehicle. Well let’s face it–if you’ve ever read my shit you [...]

Fucking Facebook

No comments

I’ve deleted friends. I’ve blocked all games, most apps, and even most people from showing up on my newsfeed. Since before the new year, I’ve cut down on how often I look at it–I barely checked in or read anyone’s crap for weeks sometimes. I even did the hardest thing ever…I gave up on the [...]

Holiday infringement

No comments

I don’t care if you’re 3 years old or 93 years old, Halloween is a special holiday. In fact, all holidays are special–this one just happens to be one of my favorite times of the year. I know that some of you didn’t dress up as a kid–or you don’t dress up now as adults; [...]

Mr. Clean

8 comments

Yes, I’m going bald. And yes, I have an earring in my left ear (or at least the hole for one). Minus the bulging biceps, I’m a regular fucking Mr. Clean. And by that I mean my blood stream. That’s right, I’ve been on a 7-day detoxification and boy has it been a tough road [...]

GREAT BACON ODYSSEY

7 comments

aka THE BACON NAZI I have several loves in my life. My wife, the Duchess, is my first and only priority. I am also a huge fan of sex, you all should know that. And my true calling in life, I like to think, is writing. I love to write–and I started this blog as [...]

Monterrey jacked-up

I am very picky about Mexican food; and I am very picky about restaurants. But this will not be a long post. This will be a simple review of what was at one time one of my favorite restaurant chains,  Monterrey Restaurante Mexicano. Specifically, the location nearby at Northlake on LaVista Rd. There are also [...]

Twilight-up-my-life

There are those that swear it is real; they defend it with passion, they camp out in tents days ahead of time. These insane people (mostly little girls) would literally kill themselves if you tell them it’s all fake–that any man who glows glittery in the sunlight is not, in fact, a vampire. The arrive [...]

(In)Tolerance

4 comments

I’m going to use this soapbox I’ve created and type for a few minutes about tolerance. Not racial tolerance–everyone talks about that and how important it is to love your neighbor regardless of skin color or national origin blah blah blah. But I am going to yet again discuss tolerance of people’s sexual preferences. To [...]

Hoarders

If you ever want to know if you belong on that show, just clean your house out for a roommate to move in. My theory is that the people that we see with shit piled everywhere on TV–the ones that make us say “oh my God how can he/she live like that”–well they just don’t [...]

Spring–er, Summer cleaning

Well, we’re getting a roommate. Now I have lived with roommates before, and besides college it has always ended up not-so-great. But the Duchess and I have had roommates live here before so I think it’ll be OK. Of course, this roommate is my close friend and co-worker and she’s blazing hot. How could that [...]
