Snowy Sunday

I we have had multiple seasons this weekend.  Going from Summer to Spring back to Winter.  Weather is fickle but I know eventually things will even out and then we will be back in the boiler for the summer. 

Rudy woke me up around normal time this morning but I convinced him to lay down on top of me and give me 15 more minutes.  I just needed to pass some time before I got out of bed, only because I was making a Target run. 

Woke up 15 minutes later and passed out breakfast for the cats.  Then I got going.  Headed out for my Strawberry Waffle and scrambled eggs.  It wasn’t bad, but Huddle House still hands down has the best Strawberry Waffle just my opinion. 

Made my Target run and it was 30 degrees out, I saw snow a couple times this morning but it’s all gone now.  Just a dusting like powered sugar.  Heard a fire engine as I was coming out of Target and thought that was rather odd and early for an Emergency vehicle. 

My next stop was the grocery store and there was a serious car crash just in front of where I normally turn to get into the grocery store.  Two fire engines, Two ambulances, Multiple Police Cars and two vehicles.  One of which had kids because I saw the kids seats in the middle of the street as I passed by.  Not the way I think anyone wants to start their morning and I felt bad for both of the people involved. 

I got to the grocery store via another entrance and then made my rounds.  By the time I got back to the Bakery area I heard a helicopter, that’s not a good sound and I knew that it was likely a medical chopper that was flying someone out.  The police still had every thing all blocked off when I left.  I had to go into the on coming traffic lanes for a short bit to get by them.

Made it to the gas station and filled up.  Then headed home.  While I was at the grocery store thinking about the colder weather and realizing that I honestly didn’t want to get back out in it I opted to pick up a frozen pizza.  That’s going to be dinner.  I hope I got something half way decent.  It’s a rising crust sausage and pepperoni.  Not a Tombstone because the grocery store doesn’t carry that brand, have to visit a different grocery store for that. 

Also impossible to find the Late Night Craving Sizzling Cheeseburger Doritos anywhere.  Not at the grocery store and not at Target.  I looked over the bag that I am about to finish, this week and no where does it say limited time but sounds like it might have been.  I am not much of a chips guy but damn these were really good and I’d like to pick up another bag for a reasonable price. 

Gave the car time to cool down and check the battery.  The overall battery health has improved and it was at 95% charged.  Since the weather has turned cold and I have no plans to go back out today I hooked it back up to the battery charger/maintainer.  Buying a new unit was the best decision I could have ever made.  It’s super smart and fool proof plus there are no buttons to press, you set it once and it remembers.  Just hook up the cables and plug it into power and it does the rest automatically.  Guess that’s why it’s called a Genius. 

I’ve got another load of laundry going, it’s the last load that I just didn’t have time for last night.  Rudy is sleeping in my lap as I type this and he looks so damn cute, as usual. 

I have made my rounds on the internet and came across a very interesting article that the FDA is cracking down on poppers producers [ https://www.fastcompany.com/91298370/fda-poppers-crackdow-double-scorpio-stops-operations ].  Apparently RFK Jr. thinks that poppers caused aids, which we all know is not the case.  Many states have also requires that you upload a Government issued ID before you can view porn on-line to make sure that youngsters aren’t viewing the material.  If you know anything about computers at all you can get around that requirement with a VPN.  However, it wouldn’t surprise me if eventually it becomes law in all of the US.  I think that this is just the start of things to come. 

Poppers probably aren’t the best thing to be inhaling but they have a purpose and apparently lots of guys love them.  I’ve tried them in the past and actually have some here still.  They don’t do anything for me really other than make me turn bright red and cause a rush of blood and heat to my head/neck and chest.  Not exactly a pleasant feeling.  My understanding is that is normal reaction.  They are supposed to make muscles relax and cause a euphoric sensation.  That’s just not the case for me.  I mention the article incase you use poppers and are in the US, might want to stock up but I am guessing they will be tough to find given the fact that the FDA is cracking down on them. 

The world would be a much better place if we could all just get along.  I suppose that would make it more like Paradise and less like real life but damn it sure does sound quite enjoyable to me.  I can only hope that our current leadership in the US doesn’t fuck things up so bad they can’t be undone when we get a normal person in the white house, I also feel sorry for the folks that will be stuck cleaning up the mess but sadly we have 4 years of this shit and it’s only just begun that is the part that really sucks. 

Well time to publish this post, check on the laundry and head up to enjoy some TV and relax.  Monday will be here soon enough and I already know my boss will say when we first meet up next “it’s so good to hear your voice, I’ve missed you”.  What a load of horse shit.  I want to say I wish I wasn’t hearing your voice I was doing just fine until you started to speak.  Can’t you go back on vacation, we all got along fine without you and I kind of would like more of that.  Yeah not exactly the right thing to say but I sure can think it.  The only good thing about the boss coming back is that it is less likely that I will have to deal with his boss but not a 100% guarantee. 

Hope the weather is great in your neck of the woods and your having an awesome day.  Talk with you all again soon!
