If I suddenly never posted on this site again, would anyone worry that I might be dead or would you not even notice?

Yeah, my awesome neighbor did a run through of my long mile and back 20 yesterday. So now I need to hit my front and backyard. While I appreciate him doing it, my wife is at a going away party with co-workers tonight. Which means I won't hit the lawn until tomorrow or Sunday depending on when she gets home.

Of course it just dawned on my Mother's Day is Sunday. Hoping the Jaguar fires up without any issues tomorrow. Otherwise the battery needs to be replaced. Had to use my wife's car to get it to start and ended up pulling it out of the garage. On the bright side, none of the lights came on during the drive with her car when I took the boy earlier to buy her present.

Fairly uneventful evening so far. Going to try and watch a movie before I go to bed, per usual. Sitting here eating the last piece of pizza and hoping no one ****s with the car during the night. I'd love to keep it out of the garage until we can get it sold. Going to put it up on Craig's List once I work out if I have a faulty battery or what?

Anyway, you folks enjoy your evening. For those drinking good beer, have one for me. I'm taking another break from the IPA's. Need to make sure my dunlap doesn't relapse. Need to get that shit in remission once the stress of moving is over.

My lady and I are taking Mom out for a nice Mother's Day lunch today in order to beat the rush that will be tomorrow.

I sometimes wonder that myself when it feels like a lot of my posts get ignored.

Great day at the funfair with the child although I must say my head is still spinning now I’m home.
Not sure if a beer right now will make me feel better or worse.

If your head is already spinning, a beer might make you vomit. I’d wait until your head is clear before having the beer.

Looks like a great day. And yes, a beer is always the answer.

I was meaning to ask how that went with the car.
Belt and alternator are good?

I think my phone is not liking the heat. It has slowed considerably.

My first semester of college, there was this guy in one of my classes that wasn't very bright. He actually paid me to tutor him in the class we were taking because he noticed I was picking up the material much faster than he was. Not that it was much of an accomplishment, this guy was all muscle and no brains. If he spent as much time studying as he did at the gym, he could have picked it up faster too. Anyway, one day as we were walking to the parking lot, his girlfriend shows up and after they had a little chat and she walks away, he asks me if she's hot. As if his opinion of her would change if I said no.

Fast forward to today, this random guy asked me the same question about his girlfriend.

Why are some people so insecure about who they are dating, that they have to ask other people if they're attractive? It shouldn't matter what other people think, as long as you think they are attractive, since you're the one dating them.

some people just need the validation. i don't understand it, either.

It sounds to me like he was simply rubbing it in your face that he had an attractive girlfriend, similar to him saying "hahaha i have a hot girlfriend that you can never get, loser!!" A d1ckhead move IMO. Of course that's just my impression

I got a 95 on my math final but alas, probably still finish that class with a B. Think I got an A in journalism, pretty sure I got a B in Social Work though.

A B isn’t bad. I was lucky to get a C in my math classes. Math kicked my ass in college. I was required to take 2 classes of my choice, I picked the ones that seemed the easiest and I still barely scrapped by with a C. One of them was statics and the other, I don’t remember, but one of the math terms was "universe" if anyone knows what I took. Also the professor liked to use the phrase "if a chicken is a bicycle,..." (I forget the rest)

Yeah math is...math. Never been strong at it, I just want to do as well as possible since the NMSU LMFT/FCS program is very competitive and grades are one of the first things they look at.

That’s a mouth full.
Google says that’s Family and Consumer Sciences, so you want to be a therapist or something?

Family and Child Services in this case actually so yes, I will either be a case worker (manager?) or a therapist. Figure it's my best shot at this point at a real job and maybe someday I can run my own clinic.
