Can't wait till I'm 60, I'm gonna race around Safeway in one of those and run people over

 
I ordered solar eclipse glasses for my kid and her friends.  They arrived today and I was outside testing them out by staring directly into the sun when a client arrived.   

 
Carlton Hanson: Why can't you stare into the eclipse?  What's it going to do really? I stare at the sun every day.

Don Draper: You stare at the sun every day?

 
Guy next to me at the bar appears to be bat#### crazy.  Told me he thinks he's being followed and recognizes people here even though he's never seen them before

Kinda want to shtick it up with him but my beers almost empty and I was gonna go back and drink at the hotel bar on my dime so I don't encroach on the Excessive Alcohol part of our business trip expense guideline

I'm not a lawyer but this seems very open to interpretation.

There's a place in Vegas called Tail & Fin that does these.  It's on my list of places to go when I'm not hiking of course.   :lol:

It's all about the poke bowl in NYC these days. Same places do sushi burritos... But I swear they used to be called hand rolls.

ETA... thank you Henry. You know, for the hand roll.

Yeah we turn in itemized receipts though so I try not to push it.  I'm sure if it's under my per diem it's fine but just try to keep it at 2 beers on the company dime

...and they're only charged me for one , guess I could have gone one more

Does the receipt say what kind of drink it is? Couple of doubles might work, I'd think

Hardly anyone here does hand rolls unfortunately.  It's like a sushi snow cone IMO.

You can just say "for the handy."  Only I will know what you're talking about.  

 
I just found out that I have a friend who doesn't like watermelon flavor, as in Jolly Ranchers, but likes watermelon.  I, on the other hand, like watermelon flavor, as in Jolly Ranchers, but don't like watermelon.  Weird, huh?

Sorry, I got nothin'.  Just hadn't posted in here for a while, and my life is not at all interesting.

Your melon preferences are shameful.

 
In other news:

-Someone hit my car while it was parked last night and didn't leave a note.  

-My cousin died quickly and somewhat unexpectedly from cancer.  We weren't close, but he was a great guy and had been taking care of my Grandpa so much since my mom moved out here.  His obituary ended with this, which I thought was incredibly sweet:  "In lieu of flowers, Ronald requests expression of happiness be given to those you love with lots of hugs and I love you's."

-My mom sent me an email entitled "Snek" today and I couldn't be more proud.

-I'm doing at least one 20+-mile hike every week along with my normal stuff - difficult, death-marchy ones on mostly scrambly terrain - and feeling freaking awesome.

-Mr. krista's first sausage-making didn't turn out well. :(

-People who think Dunkirk was hard to follow aren't very bright.

-Henry's hard orange soda is fantastic.

I'm sure I'm forgetting something else important.

Same here. Actually for about 25 years I couldn't even eat watermelon.  It would make my throat itch.  Started when I was about 10 then went away all of a sudden.

It made your throat itch, but you kept trying it until it didn t make your throat itch anymore?  Sounds like you really like watermelon.

That's what she said.

Seriously, that's amazing. I'm happy if I can get through 1.5 miles on the treadmill every day without my back locking up.

No doubt. I busted my ### to lose 30 pounds so I could survive a 12 day, 65 mile (prolly closer to 80) backpacking trip, and Krista would've lapped us twice.

Did have a rattlesnek in camp one day though, so there is that.

That sounded so fun, and you should be proud of yourself.  Wait, not the rattlesnek part.

There's a copperhead prowling one of our local parks here right now.  Since they're not native, someone must have put it there.  WTF?

Won't they be in school?  I guess I'm assuming my kids' schools are going to provide these when they let everyone go out to watch.

Most schools don't supply enough glue sticks. 

Theyll give the kids a piece of cardboard with a hole in it and tell them to watch it on a piece of paper on the other side as the light goes dark.
