Dad Drove Himself To The Casino And Church
Wednesday my dad and I went grocery shopping. I drove. Dad pushed the cart through the store. He did get awfully tired about 2/3 the way through and sat out the rest of the shopping trip. I got him home and he admitted to being more tired than he expected.
I thought he might think about how difficult it would be to get in and out of his car, while using his walker, getting his walker in the backseat, and himself in the driver’s seat; then getting to where he needed to go, get himself and his walker out of the car…
Seems like a pretty daunting task.
Undaunted, Thursday he drove himself to the casino. Then on Saturday evening, he drove himself to church.
Sigh.
How Long Does It Take To Collect $6.31?
It was at least 20 years ago when I started collecting “lucky pennies”. Pennies found on the ground (mostly), but I would also find some in the couch cushions, under the car seat, in the laundry, etc. If the pennies weren’t handed to me as change from a cash purchase, into the luck penny jar they would go.
So, I decided it was time to cash them in for real paper money.
$6.31.
Money well earned, time well spent.
Trumpers Can’t See Their Emperor Has No Clothes
He never presented his plan to improve America’s infrastructure. He never presented his great plan to replace Obamacare. Both of which he would constantly promise the plans would be revealed in two to three weeks. Always two to three weeks (or maybe a month) away, but never presented.
He didn’t finish the wall. And Mexico didn’t pay for what little wall did get built. He didn’t lock up Hillary Clinton. He completely botched the American response to the pandemic. He then lost a shit ton of jobs. (I should acknowledge jobs were created at a good pace before the pandemic. That’s why, if not for the pandemic, Trump would likely have been re-elected. Every cloud has a silver lining.)
Sleepy Joe?
But maybe some Trumpers are seeing the light. This one seems to be having his eyes opened.
The Story Was Just Too Well-Written
I just learned there’s a podcast called Help! I Sexted My Boss. From what I can tell, listeners write in about embarrassing events hoping for advice. The hosts are British, so I’m sure their advice sounds good. Is it sound, though? I dunno.
On one episode, the last letter read was about a woman claiming she had found her mother’s vibrating sex toy and used it. She loved because it hit all the right places. And she was stunned when she discovered the device had been made from a mold of her father’s penis.
My immediate reaction was that the story was bullshit. But was it?
It might be true. I mean, Clone-A-Willy is a thing that is real.
