- Just assumed everyone was taking the day off for Chad's birthday.
- My dad's house sold 30 hours after being listed, at $15k over the list price. That's the good news. The bad news is that it's now a dead-on sprint to get everything cleaned out or sold in the next four weeks. This whole process has really caused me to re-evaluate the stuff I've kept over the years. I'm a "sentimental pack-rat". If anything has any sentimental meaning at all, I tend to keep it. But man, I don't want my kids to have to go through this someday. So I'm going to make a point of periodically discarding stuff that was meant to be enjoyed for a season.
- Is Ukraine still a thing?
- Glad that the Wagner recruitment seems to be nearing its end. If he's UL-bound, which is what some insiders are saying is a done deal, I'd rather he go ahead and commit now rather than stringing the whole thing along. I assume that if UL is the choice, it's either a push to get Ian Jackson to reclass to '23 to play alongside Dillingham, or it's the portal, because the remaining crop of guards in that class is pretty meager.
- Like a lot of our parents (I'm guessing), my dad has a lot of old pics that were converted to slides instead of prints. I still don't understand the thinking behind it. Why get your photos put into a format that requires you to lug out a piece of machinery just to view them? As a kid, I remember us MAYBE pulling out that slide projector once a year. Were prints THAT expensive to get?
- Welcome to the worst seven days of the year, dog owners.
