Bag of Randomness for Friday, September 22, 2023

  • I’m sorry I haven’t posted much this week. In the evening, I keep dosing off. Heck, BoyGeeding had to wake me up four times while watching the latest “Ahsoka” episode, which I’m more into than him.
  • Now, it’s no longer my lower abdominals and back muscles which hurt, it’s both of my mid to upper hips. I look forward to my next night of a full night’s sleep.
  • I was supposed to get the stitches out of my back on Monday, but the whole area looked too swollen. So, I’ve been asked to apply a pressure bandage to it for the next week, with the hopes of the swelling going down by this coming Monday.”
  • I want to say thank you to the several of you folks who were kind enough to reach out to me. That was exceptionally kind, and it meant a lot to me.
  • One day I plan on taking a deep breath without any sort of pain again.
  • Claritin’s “Most Wonderful Time of the Year” commercial has been airing for at least two month and has already ruined the Christmas season.
  • I’ve read how nasty the Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner divorce has been getting. Her latest petition cites the “wrongful retention” of their children “in New York City from their habitual residence of England. That reminded me of how my ex first petitioned the court for full custody as her intent on living in Lindale with our kids “indefinitely.” She started things out so contentiously, and it forced me to prove in court the love and passion I had for our children. Her attorney used excerpts from this blog to make me out to be a bad husband and father. My attorney had me make sure I knew such things as who their best friends were and their current shoe sizes, and used excerpts from this blog to prove how loving and devoted I was. Heck, I ran across Exhibit C from the case recently. It was 157 pages of tweets I made expressing my love and devotion to them. It’s so “weird” having to prove the love you have for your children in court so unexpectedly. I may now be dating again, but I doubt I will ever trust another woman again, especially one who claims Christ is first in her life yet pulls stunts off like this. In situations like these, you don’t make decisions based on your lawyer’s advice, you make decisions on what’s best for your children.

  • Sorry for the lack of posts lately. Things have been a bit crazy around here.
  • I started to experience excruciating abdominal pains which were also hurting my back. There was no way I could drive myself to the hospital, so I called an ambulance That was a first for me. Surprisingly, the dogs behaved exceptionally well with all the paramedics in the house. I was released the following morning.
  • So much for trying to make it through September without medical insurance, I’m going to have to retroactively activate COBRA.
  • BunnyGeeding died last night. The kids took it hard. It costs $355 to have him cremated and placed in a pine box urn.

  • I’m sorry for the lack of posts this week. I thought I was on the mend, but then I started to experience some intense abdominal pain, which was hurting my back. The pain became so severe that I called an ambulance to the hospital where I was kept overnight. It’s a good thing I can retroactively activate COBRA.
  • Sooner or later, things have got to start looking up, right?
  • I was supposed to go to my small group meeting on Wednesday. But for the life of me, I can’t recall a single thing I did Wednesday evening.

  • This is how Jerry Jones plans to control the Cowboys from beyond the grave.
  • I’ve noticed new vehicles have fancy long-winding LED lights. Some of them make me think of Knight Rider, though that car had a red chasing light in the front center. These new vehicles have lights that accent the head and tail lights. Anyway, all that to say it’s a lot easier to spot new vehicles on the road.
  • right before the start of season opener of the NFL season, my son came in and wanted to play a board game. Time with my boy is more important than any football game. Then, he wanted to get ice cream, and well, that was hard to turn down.
  • I continue to be in favor of pronouns used in the workplace. I thought Chee Chee was a male, like the golfer, Chee Chee Rodriguez. Nope, female. Pronouns would have saved me from some embarassment.
  • That time Clint Eastwood was pranked by Mr. Ed.
