Now I'm a pillow for Chef Teri as well as the above mentioned.

Strictly Come Dancing for Dance Fevre, studying

2016 292

Up @7 ugh.

College Gameday on the tube while trying to motivate to do something meaningful. Now working out too well.

New phones today. Means new toy for the next week or so.


2016 291

Friday, payday.

Starting to look at advance weather to see what weekend we are going to the Ren Faire. We've unfortunately waited until only two weekends remain.

Dress for Halloween day today at work. Got my Ren Faire outfit on.

'You're never really done with this business but you wake up one day and this business is done with you." Chael Sonnen 10/28/16. Preach it bra!

Sux no Blue Spoon tonite, see FB for my thoughts.

Looooooong day at work.

Killer chili from Chef Teri, makes up for Blue Spoon, mostly.

When I post this it will be the 1000th post on that's blog. That's pretty cool.

Social media is still aflame about the Mockingbird writer fiasco. I for one am glad she's gone and I hope she keeps her feminist bullshit in HER novels so that I can easily avoid that bullshit.

The bullshit about the house is starting to pile up a bit. To the extent I'm no longer comfortable with it.

Pens play tonite. No work out. Yummy dinner planned. Things are majorly looking up once 170 gets here. Oh and I got my check. Daddy's flush!!

I'm on a marriage mail nuke sortie at the moment. I will find a way to keep from getting any more of the landfill bullshit.

Pens won!!!!

2016 290

Comic book day. Previews, my favorite publication.

Chef Teri off to help with another location today. Got home yesterday about an hour and a half later than usual so I expect the same today.

No update on the utility/mortgage no payment issue by the current owner of the house we are trying to purchase.

Main software I use for work failure. Customer service on the west coast=lots of down time this morning.

ESRI customer support is very professional in fixing problems perhaps not so in explanations nor choice of linguistic families they chose to give telephony support jobs to.

A new comic book writer is been social media beaten because of HER choice to take a pre-established Marvel heroine who had in previous iterations been raped and turn the story so that she willingly fucked around on her then husband. I figure that way the victim became empowered. In my mind she took a heroine that had been a victim and so was a strong exemplar character despite the crap that at times she had gone through and turned her into a loose moral fibre female dick by having her crap on her heart felt promise to her significant other. Loyalty is the most important human concept to me so I am much more drawn to a victim than to a lieing marital cheater. Your feminist agenda failed Mrs Cain and now you bear the brunt of the keyboard justice attacks. Enjoy your 15 seconds of comic book fame and we will welcome you back you you choose to be much more respectful of what came before you.

I walked a couple miles just to stay loose.

Lucha Underground to finish up the day.

2016 289

Today is the true start of some major changes for Chef Teri at work. Pending life changes as well with our home purchase moving forward after yesterday's positive home inspection.

Interested to see what becomes of the fact that the current owners have apparently allowed bills to lapse and I/we will not sign off on a satisfactory home inspection until our man has a chance to check the plumbing. Not water no plumbing inspection. No satisfactory inspection to sign...pretty simple.

Two computers up front that were down got fixed within half an hour. Nice when the machine works like is supposed to .

No workout today not feeling up to it.

Chef Teri work late so we went out to a greasy spoon for dinner.

Pens on the tube.

Monday, October 24, 2016

2016 288

Monday, start of the work week.

No workout today still trying to recover from yesterday.

Home inspection scheduled for today. Current owner fucking us over whether intentionally or not about having water on so we can get a full inspection. We'll see what happens.

Further working to get GPS locations for fire hydrants. 21st Century collides with 'good ole boy' the bane of my professional career.

House inspection went swimmingly. Handrail on back stairs (heads up only), outdoor air unit (age/maintenance), circuit panel (two circuits on one breaker). Nothing major or even worrisome. YAY!!! We do see where the power and more than likely the water has not been paid and one has been shut off and the other threatened. Perhaps the mortgage hasn't been paid either.

Bec FB live'd a happy birthday to Levi from mom and dad in Lexington. It was cool!

Lighter dinner that was good cause I can't cook and Chef Teri is still on the throws of siqness.


2016 287

Rough night for Chef Teri. This siqness thing is really messin with her.

We decided to go ahead and go to the Ten mile walk.

I hit the 10 mark and Chef Teri the 8 mark, siq as a dawg.

Five Guys for post walk refuel.

Steelers game. They lost.

2016 286

College Gameday and college football probably all day on the tube.Gives me a chance to clear/catch up on some reading projects. Got too many open and still more bouncing around in my head.

No Rising Star gotta get Chef Teri in shape.

WVU won. Alabama won. Come on Pens!!

Pens lost.

Saturday, October 22, 2016

2016 285

Friday.

That will teach me. The Pens were down 2-0 at the end of the second not looking very good at all so I went to bed. They ended up scoring 3 unanswered in the 3rd and won the game. UGH!!!

Blue Spoon is on for tonite, Hungarian perhaps with some company. Nick may be there which will be cool.

Twitter is really wack today.

Just supported my first non comic book on Kickstarter.

Trying to track down GPS coordinates for the fire hydrants in Mercer county. It's interesting to pose 21st Century questions to back water, low rent, good old boy hillbillies. The looks on their faces or sounds of their voices is almost always amusing.

Blue Spoon was good food but not the meal we've enjoyed the best. Chef Teri still wayyyyyy under the weather glad she felt well enough to give that a try.


2016 284

Pens hockey this evening hopefully they can get off their recent shnide.

This idea for the Marvel B&W magazine podcast is really growing on me. Then again my ideas for a Warrior Nun Areala and Marvel Kaiju shows are still in there too.

This election cycle is really showing the petty/shitty side of huge swaths of the American people. I also have concluded that far more liberal/democrats use twitter than conservative/republicans or moderate/libertarians.

Set up ap for home inspection for this coming Monday. Things are moving forward. Now we have iffy water (problems?) at the apt. Just another reason to get the fuck out.

Chef Teri ill.

Pens not looking good so I'm hittin the sack.

2016 283

Comic book day.

Signing house loan papers today. I'm cool but I think Chef Teri is on the verge of having a cow.

Lunch with Chef Teri.

Chores

Chillin to some music.

2016 282

Found a Swamp Thing podcast, that's cool.

Sign loan papers for the house tomorrow morning. Things are moving forward.

Pens play tonite.

Hope to record a Dance Fevre tonite as well.

Body Combat was ok. Which is several steps up from what it has been.

DF recorded.

Pens sucktastic this evening.

So frustrating that I spend 10-12 hours a day engaged in bullshit and then after when I get the chance I am too drained to even keep my eyes open to attempt to do stuff I actually enjoy. Just fucking frustrating.

Tuesday, October 18, 2016

2016 281

Taco Bell lunch.

Bin diving some 25 cent bins at Crit Hit.

Steelers football.

Boots ordered.


2016 272

Renewal day.

Lotsa rain made things not dry.

Food was mediocre.

Renewal ranks as one of the coolest feelings I have had in ever. Julie was good at it, my bride was beautiful and it was cool wearing a kilt. Pics on FB and Instagram.

Dinner at the Railyard was a good finish to a so so food day.

2016 271

Friday.

Date night.

Picking up my new bi-focals today. Yay!

New glasses are weird. Gonna take quite a bit of getting used to.


Friday, October 7, 2016

2016 270

Well three of the four houses we wanted to look at have contracts on them and the fourth is suspect. This is going to be a long, frustrating, painful journey.

No house showings today after all. Back to start. That's Exciting, not.

Returned on kilt for smaller size but the one I like better fit. That's cool.

Gonna rain Saturday fuckin figures. Don't do shit and the weathers fuckin peachy try to do something nice and fuckin rain. Thanks dude it's appreciated more than you know or maybe you do know I don't fuckin care.

Yeah well crappy mood for me, thanks.

Thursday, October 6, 2016

2016 268

Looks as though I will get my first ordered kilt today. Already picked up the second one from the PO this morning.

We look to resume the house hunt today as well.

One kilt fits the other is too large. Either way my Ren Faire costume is now complete as my ensemble for our vow renewal this weekend.


Monday, October 3, 2016

2016 267

Monday.

Got in some podcast contest swag I had won.

Reminiscing about my early days as a podcast listener.

Got a phone call and than an email after 1600 today about the Calibre/Pictometry stuff. Didn't answer the call but did the email.

Finally walked a sub 20 minute mile at the park. Now to push to get two out of three.

Dancing with the Stars.


2016 266

NFL Game Day Morning on in the background while studying for some Usagi recordings.

Recorded a Ronin Rabbit and Thorcast today. Feels like I'm back on my game.

Steelers lookin like Steelers this game.

2016 265

I believe Dabo Sweeney is my second favorite college football coach behind Nick Saban.

So for my Ren costume I have my shoes,spats, belt, shirt, bo staff, hat and googles. Two different kilts are ordered

Just got word my first kilt order will arrive three days after I need it. Sigh.

Hat, goggles, shirt and gloves all work. Kilts not in and spats are troublesome.

Chef Teri put on her entire ensemble and it look cool. Excited for folks to see her in it.

Four podcasts recorded and produced today. Felt good. Hopefully more tomorrow.

2016 264

So bullshit problems at work. Vendor calls at 4+p to try and work things out. It's kinda comforting to know that with the problem working on 3 months old that are issue are top of mind for them.

This whole house buying thing just feels hackneyed and thrown together on both the banks side of things but also from our Realtor.

Eye Dr today I get to be dilated, and not in a set way either.

I joined the roles of the bi-focals today. Progressive lenses but bi non the less.

Now just listening to podcasts as my eyes come back down from their occular high of earlier.

Blue Spoon dinner with Chef Teri was excellent.

Strictly Come Dancing.
