Howdy and welcome back. This is a true very rare moment, the cats and I are both in the basement. They are both curled up in my old office chair behind me, sound asleep. That is until I make some noise. Every time I try to take a photo of Rudy sleeping regardless if he is alone or if he is with his sister, he magically wakes up. I’ve taken a couple shots without him knowing but they just don’t echo the sheer beauty of the moment. They both look so peaceful when they are sleeping.
Yesterday I laid around for the morning and relaxed. The afternoon I got a shower and got dressed. It was just a dull overcast cold day outside. We were supposed to have rain all day long but nothing here. So I made my way to the bank, the ATM could read the amount on the check I was trying to deposit and after two tries I just gave up. Then on to the post office where I had no mail and didn’t need to stop. While I was there I used my phone to make that deposit I couldn’t make at the ATM. I don’t typically deposit into this particular account via a mobile app but opted to give it a try. Most every financial institution wants you to endorse your check with their select verbiage and it’s different at every place I do banking business. I’m not a fan of that. I miss the good old days where you could just use FOR DEPOSIT ONLY and print or sign your name.
I digress, back on point. I made my way to the buffet. I ran into all of the rain we were supposed to get the entire trip (there and back). I hate driving in the rain and what’s worse is darkness and rain. It was starting to turn dark when I was headed back. The food at the buffet was okay. I didn’t stuff myself like I would have in days past. I made two trips where the first trip I loaded up with Corn, Mashed Potatoes, Small sample of Meatloaf, Fried Cat Fish nuggets and Fried Chicken. Then on my second trip just Mashed Potatoes and Meatloaf, which was really good. Third trip was desert Bread Pudding. I had a small family siting in front of me and they had a teenage son. Damn when he stood up I got excited. Small butt and cute face. So I got some eye candy on my trip. I think I was there for maybe 30 minutes tops. Heard some lady say that she brought her 89 year old mother and they were headed back home, she lives further out than I do. Just goes to show you if you have good food people will come to eat it.
Outside of rain my trip also had a couple construction zones that I had to travel through. Nothing too major but obeying the speed limit sign helped me, I’m familiar with the roadway but I don’t travel it as often as I used to and they had a couple of unique lane shifts that if I was going top speed I would have had an issue with.
Back home to the strange land where it was a Trick or Treat night. Tonight is the same damn thing and so is Monday. There wasn’t one kid out last night and the cold and rain is why. It’s raining off and on today so not sure if any one will be out tonight. Tuesday is the Halloween Parade. This is the only odd thing about living here. Back at my old childhood home they do it right where you go out one night and do your Trick or Treating. I never ever heard of a Halloween Parade but plug it into your favorite search engine and you will get a decent amount of results. I still think it’s strange.
I stuck the kids fountain in the dishwasher and we watched an old episode of 20/20 about the Sheriff’s Deputy and Prisoner escape in I think Alabama back in 2022 where the female Sheriff’s deputy killed herself. I thought they both died but nope it was only her. Lots of interesting insight into the story that I didn’t know. Then I got their fountain back in place with a new filter and fresh water. Started watching an Andrew Goes Places twitch stream he did the prior day. It was just opening Pokémon Cards which was boring to me. He never even took off his shirt but damn he had a nice black wife beater on that showed his arms. He’s really in good shape. After that it was lights out.
This morning I woke up early thanks to my biological clock and Rudy. I fed the kids and threw on some clothes. Made my way to Cracker Barrel where I got the rude waitress. She knew my drink order. If I didn’t know better I’d for sure bank on it that this lady hates me. Not sure why I’m always nice. We only had a problem one time where the kitchen didn’t cook my eggs right and they forgot my sausage but that was damn near 3 years ago. I saw the hot guy waiter that has my number but won’t call me. We never made eye contact or I am sure I would have gotten a hello. He still looks fine but I’m still hurt by the fact he has never called. I will always wonder why, I know he said he was busy but damn he said he was getting free time and he planned to call. Well hello. I’m sure if I asked again he’d have an excuse. It just doesn’t make any sense to me to give your phone number to someone and say you will call but never follow through. I only went to CB because I was hungry for Blueberry Pancakes and it was a change of pace from the usual place I go.
On to the grocery store where I still continue to buy less and less food each week. I am so tired of frozen meals, it’s been 10 years and damn I need to either hire a chef, meet a guy who can cook or just go out to eat more often. Now which one of those 3 do you think will happen?
Stopped to fill up my tank at the gas station and then home to put the groceries away. Relaxed with the cats in my room. Took a nap and then decided to come down and work on the computer. I’ve got an issue where it reboots. The restore point I wanted to use timed out so that wasn’t an option. I am trying a couple other things to see if I can’t resolve this. I feel pretty good about it right now but I felt the same way a couple days ago. I only notice it when at night I want to watch porn and I can’t because the damn thing rebooted. I stream my porn through my local home network it’s much more enjoyable to watch that way, I am more comfortable. So, hopefully all works well tonight. It won’t be until tomorrow either during the day or at night before I know if I have solved my problem.
I’ve been working from home for almost a month straight and damn I am ready to go back to the office. Turns out tomorrow I am on-call so this week is out. I look so forward to next week in being able to go in. I might do it more than once in the week but probably not. I know that the mileage is a good workout for the car and it helps the tires to not get flat spots from sitting. Kind of why I went to the buffet yesterday. Gas mileage is coming in strong at 27mpg which isn’t bad for an SUV. I am still eager to get into something new but I am in a holding pattern for now.
Well the kids are no longer asleep behind me they both left me. I need to get upstairs and break out the vacuum cleaner. Not sure if I want to go out for supper tonight or if I want to stay home. It’s a cold wet day probably not a bad idea to eat some soup. Damn I forgot crackers again. Well there you have it.
Looking forward to tomorrow only to see the Amazon delivery person drop off my Cinnamon Cream of Wheat. That’s good stuff! Take care and I will talk with you again soon. Be well.
