It's a picture of Rick Santorum holding my son. Before you get all political, understand that I went to this event purely out of shtick and drunkenly walked up to him (with Miller Lite can in hand) and said, "Mr. Santorum, I have a baby if you want to come hold him." And he agreed and followed me back to my kids. But then we had to walk across this pavilion where people kept wanting to take pictures with him (I live in SC). So at one point, I drunkenly reached back with my hand as if we were friends in danger of getting separated at a concert so I could be sure he stayed with me. It didn't go over well with his "people".

So, this pretty much makes me a terrible person, right?

The "blast off" date for my cross country move is next week, so this week has been a seemingly never-ending parade of goodbyes. I mean, I appreciate everyone who wants to see us off. I really do. But after the fourth episode of this, with probably another 3-4 to come....I'm sorta over it. Not talking family members/close friends/whatnot. Talking "peripheral friends" level.

We aren't dying or relocating to the Moon(regardless of what some of y'all in here have told me about Nevada). It's making me all "get of my lawn!"-y and I think my wife is probably going to give me a lecture about it pretty soon.

I'm also a little buzzed. Maybe I'll be more about the "feels" when that wears off. Then again...maybe I won't.

 
I'm sure you're a terrible person but for other reasons. When we moved last year, we hosted a neighborhood send off. And the people who we knew merely because of proximity that we knew we werent going to talk to again, we just didnt tell them.

 
People really worry about that kind of stuff? I see Bentley and cos every few months if I'm lucky and still consider them friends. I could move to California without them even knowing and it wouldn't impact our relationship at all.

well yeah, but isn't the cornerstone of your relationship standing Cos up for lunch?

It appears that at least a few people who I totally feel like are "friends of convenience only" types do, and since they do apparently now my wife does. Again, we're not talking family or close friends here. That's why I'm sort of over it.

These are not bad people, per se, it is just added stress because my bride feels obligated if asked to do something, etc, etc. I'd prefer to limit stress, particularly hers. She's been "this one goes to 11" for about a month.

It really doesn't matter. I'm just drinking and posting #### on the internet while I try to decompress. I'll shut up for now.

This would have been the better play, but probably didn't have the lead time to pull it off.

 
Got a Desmond Howard autographed football in the mail today. Apparently we won it in a Kellogg's sweepstakes. That thing has to be worth scads.

I don't know how many friends Cos (Bentley as well) has that would bail him out of jail or drive him to the hospital at 3am, no questions asked. But he has at least one. That's the cornerstone of our relationship.

Rules.

The best part is that we got a box with a note from Kellogg's that said "Enjoy your autographed NCAA football" with no indication of who it was. Had to go to the Google to figure out it was Desmond Howard.

Once I figured that out, I would have dropped kicked it down the ravine behind my house.

This is unrelated, but I just saw some statistics that showed Nevada has the lower HS graduation rate in the country, across pretty much all races.

I just bought a Keurig and it's gone wonky on me. At first, I only used the premade K cups. I also bought one of the reusable empty cups so I could whittle down some of the 50 lbs of "loose" coffee I already had. For awhile, I could go back and forth, and both methods worked fine. Now, though, the premade cups won't work anymore. The machine will start, load the water, and make all of the normal noises but then it stops just short of actually dispensing coffee. The reusable cup still works fine.

I'm guessing the reusable cup has screwed up a sensor or something, but don't know. Any ideas on how I might fix it? I didn't get the warranty when I bought the machine.

Oh, and I got my brains ####ed out last night and again this morning.

 
If your bottom poker is broken, some K-cups have rounded mesh bottoms so you don't need it.

Sounds like your rear poker is fully functional which is good.

 
For those of you that have access to Amazon Instant Video, I highly recommend Catastrophe.

There are only six 30 minute episodes. We watched all six last night; couldn't stop.

It is funny as ####.

This happened to me but almost right after I used one of the those coffee ones that didn't fit my model. It bent the bottom poker over :lol: and I had to get a butter knife to pry it back straight. Painful.
