    its one of my favorite things to do these days and i even keep up w steps and shit
    besides running is more or less out of the question given i had a propensity for falling for as long as i remember
    although my rolls and return to my feet could be impressive
    have an injured toe which is unfortunate since it tends to make my favorite pastime less enjoyable
    oh well must grind through it
    woke a little late since i stayed a little late and thought a red bull sounded good besides i get to walk
    ah the smell of LA urine in the morning never gets old but as my brain once again acclimates it is truly beautiful
    i have a trader joes an ampm and a vons within a block so i set my sights on ampm cause cheap red bull
    the birria truck is out early and a huuuuge Mexican is already in the cue fully blocking the sidewalk
    manage my way around him as he blankly stares at his phone and am greeted w a smile by the cashier
    she doesn't know me yet and when i approach she openly asks "how's everything, is everything ok?"
    it was very sweet and it almost seemed as thought she meant it so i'm game
    "actually things are pretty far from ok and i can use some help so how much does that cost?"
    we share a laugh and her register mate dude clearly doesn't think its funny and is mumbling shit in Spanish
    oh well fuck him back to the road and head home w cargo shorts full of bull
    huuuuge Mex is still in the same spot and takes one step back this time
    damn that birria sure smells good i'll be back to try this truck, sold
    as i walk past the park the usual fruit truck guy is setting up for his day but w a twist
    i think dude's a Salvi not sure but today has opted for black and white leopard leggings under his shorts...
    ok then, he shoots me an over the shoulder glance like wtf you looking at? nothing mate nothing at all
    about now i notice a lady w a couple of bags walking parallel across the street from me
    how long has she been there and how is she clearly ahead of me with that load?
    time to pick up the pace and as i approach the crosswalk in front of my place victory is clearly mine
    turns out she is crossing as well so its sort of an uncomfortable face off for a moment
    in crossing i try to casually glance and blurt a "como estas" but she was having none of that and ignored me
    its one thing to compete but sore losers don't exactly make my day any better oh well
    well the red bull tasted good and its time to hit the shower and pick up my sister to visit mom
    should dovetail well w dropping off the ex at LAX for her flight to Sri Lanka while she visits
    so anyway i'm not sure why i am dropping this here or where it will go or if it will be entertaining for anyone
    but i figured it might be a good idea to confirm my sanity or lack thereof given my recent meanderings
    any professional advice from fellow wanderers is appreciated and hope it goes somewhere fun
    could happen if we leave religion and politics out of it!

    Mine would be far less entertaining. Basically wandered through my back field this morning for 20-25 minutes, shovel and bucket in hand, looking for yellow star thistle. Why? Because I'm hopefully near the back-end of a four year quest to rid my property of it. Sure, I could've sprayed like normal people, but four years ago I read that if I was diligent for three straight years in removing it before it dropped seed, I could eliminate it. Like I said, year four now. And there's still a lot. And it really annoys me that there's still so much. So the stubborn SOB that I am, I'm going to keep going at it. Really, it's a June through early August thing. Then wait until next year to see if you really got it. So we'll see.

    totally the spirit mate
    i'm sure you have other battles/negotiations etc. that others might not understand or shake their heads at
    i have this stuff i think is called mustard weed but it turns brown immediately and has little balls of thorns that get in my dogs fur
    been battling them for years since stepping on a loose one in my room in the middle of the night really sucks
    i think some of these weeds are like roaches and rats and Keef they'll be here long after we're gone but respect the fight!
    to the airport and beyond

    You've got the right idea if you're not going to spray it. Get it when it's small and if it heads out haul it out of there. That shit is nasty.

    speaking of demons and angels i had an amazing day of huge events take place today, a trifecta of awesomeness
    first and foremost the love of my life returned from the shit hole and bastion of perversion know as SF
    after the dogs greeted her w deep guttural noises i've only heard come from this odd breed of dog i asked her if she enjoyed herself
    when she finished gushing about food and friends i asked her if that was before or after the homos started shooting at her
    the bf thought it was funny but the kid just gave me an eye roll and disappeared into the house, welcome home!
    the second excellent thing was an old friend contacting me after also not appreciating my sense of humor when i posted pictures of the windows from my condo
    he's twice the talent i'll ever be and yet the measurements he took were so far off i had to bust his balls
    i ended up installing them by myself when he flaked on me several times during the process of order/pick up / installation
    nbd since i had offered to let him and his crew install them and i was saving like 3k doing it myself
    besides he's always been one of two ways when it comes to jobs, straight up the middle or wet noodle and that's just how it goes
    i don't get angry when he goes sideways but one of the windows was off by 5" forcing me to cut stucco and drywall just to get it to fit
    the others were also too tight and i fought them all which should never be the way w retrofit as i used to do it for a living
    how the job goes depends entirely on the measurements and this was fully fucked
    not to mention there was a 12' sliding door i had to wrestle by myself so anyway i was cursing while i worked
    so decided to post a few pictures on fb with a headline something to the effect of "don't let your buddy measure your window w a broken tape measure"
    that was nearly a year ago and i even though i had reached out w an apology on NYE he held steadfast in his petulance after 40 years of kindred slapdick friendship
    so i get a text tonight " i miss you" well of course you do you freaking silly man
    talked about moms and we'll see where that goes but i already know for me i was never upset anyway so nothings changed
    the third and very excellent thing is the bruja caregiver has finally hung herself in the eyes of the rest of the family and has been vanquished to her own private hell
    she also was lacking in humor of any kind but that was never the problem as i could care less and paid no attention to her
    until she started insisting mom go to sleep at 9pm every night forcing an end to any home Dodger games for her and i
    she literally started yelling during Andersons no hitter at 930 and threatened to walk out!
    the next night she actually did walk out and overplayed her hand crying to my brother and sister in law that i was an awful person not following her rules
    with no pride she continued to try hanging on and things were going full sideways by the day until today that is
    people finally had enough and told her to get out YES
    she had fooled everyone and bamboozled w bullshit from the very beginning attempting to solidify herself as irreplaceable
    one of the strangest and most uncomfortable situations i've ever found myself in and to say i'm enthused she's gone would be an understatement to good riddance
    a true liar and a thief i wish her everything she's worked for going forward
    left mom smiling and singing happy days are here again and the Dodgers winning going away again
    going to have the other ladies she managed to chase off over for a celebration in the next few days
    life's good

    Now thats the type of story im into right now.
    What you need is to hire a guy following you around as a lackey with a camera recording your adventures and stories.
    Im too proud of an artiste to do that kind of demeaning work for hire... but i am fully trained and partially certified nurse assistant with experience working in a convalescent home.
    If you are in a pinch for this kind of essential service.

    Let me know when your people want to get in touch with my people and ill pass you along my peoples private number.
    You know how it is with unions.
    Everything is always very personal.
    Specially business.

    Be advised that my people never work alone. We always work as a team.
    And you receive substantially over 110% on every contract.
    Something our competitors cant beat.
    But we guarantee.
    Through teamwork.
    And the subtle art of christian jesus chaos magic.

    Now you may have heard some bad information about the teams activities in the past.
    Let me assure you that the past is the past and any kinks in the system are being straightened out. I have been handing out pink slips personally.
    With no severance packages.
    Just severe parting words of sinking depths.
    Hey atlantis coulda been blown up into smithereens or burnt in sulfuric hailstorm devil winds.
    But it was allowed to become the marineland.
    Thats mercy.

    We are under new management and our teams of essential e-class professionals will act with the spirit of truth that the mother of all professionals imbued into us when she founded our families concept of service as a system of governance ensuring a properly cleansed population where the most essentially valued people are those that serve privately.
    We help you clean.
    And you help us clean up.
    Everybody wins!

    still banned from fakebook but manage to communicate in dm
    so day before yesterday i noticed a free toy bus being given away on one of the neighborhood sites
    was told it had been promised but if that fell through it was mine and yesterday i was told to swing by!
    kids at the school love this stuff and it looked brand new
    so we talk for a bit and it turns out she's right down the street basically so time for a stroll
    as always its going to be contactless pickup left out on the porch and i have just enough time to get there and back in time to watch the game w mom
    as i walk down the side opposite the park i am dodging in and out of all sorts of bushes and tree branches making it impossible to take a straight line
    it occurs to me the lady from the previous day clearly never had a chance in our race and was likely the reason for her petulance
    crossing the main street i just miss the light and as i stand waiting a small crowd crosses to my side w one guy waiting to cross w me
    young black guy w a back pack and head phones and he and i are nearly killed as we start to cross by some ditz blonde in a corvette
    his pace is same as mine and as we both turn right it becomes clear we will be on the same path for a bit
    no big but it ends up w me walking more or less behind him and i know he knows i'm there but this goes like this for a couple of blocks
    then he seems to slow down and i pass him on the right and cut left into the neighborhood shortly after
    no words spoken just one of those odd moments that timing provides us at times
    as i approach the house it starts sinking in that i'm going to be carrying a childs toy back from where i just came from
    they have a security camera that announces my arrival to the driveway and i can hear young girls jumping about "mommy he's here! he"s here"
    well fuck me this thing is almost 3 ft long and bright pink, something that was not evident in the blurry photo i saw online
    so now i realize it's going to look like i'm stealing some little girls barbie bus from her front yard and walking off w it
    gotta own it so i do my best to stand upright and look like a respectable toy thief to anyone watching me
    one guy comes out of a house and takes off on foot in my direction of course and as we hit the main street i blurt out "not stealing this for what its worth"
    he sizes me up looks at the bus and say nothing since he doesn't give a flying fuck
    well i'm not doing crosswalks on the way back so i run across the main drag and as i reach the other side regrip this thing and of course it breaks in pieces
    gather things up and walking up the main drag i'm now staring directly into the cars trying to figure out what a grown ass man is doing w a barbie bus
    did i mention its bright pink?
    get home walk in the door and my kid sizes me and the bus up w a quizzical look as i'm dripping sweat
    i say "don't ask" and she doesn't
    hope the little monsters at the school will enjoy it but more than likely it will die a quick death like every other toy that's ever been brought in
    at least it was free

    I never meant that they was boring, or sleep inducing.
    Not having read every book ever in existence like huh?, I was just a bit surprised to see another guy with Rube sized posts.
    I enjoyed them.
    Good slice of life stuff...
    Oh...and all those who wander are not lost...

    didn't take it as anything other than playful mate
    nothing serious going on here just bored and banned from fb for a prince harry lobotomy comment
    the truly twisted stuff i still keep to myself
    homo erotic and sexually depraved dreams are impossible to explain anyway
    no masking in LA and gf's kid got in to a private school that doesn't require vaccines how cool is that?
    feel like i've been neglecting that gf in some respect but what else is new?
    today was a full 60 days
    sin bebida and 60 years old i find myself in a strange space of a sort of limbo
    amazing how many things i wasn't paying attention to and the amount of chaos i'm still capable of
    its a good place to be i'm lucky

    Do it!
    Keep doing it.
    I'm letting it all hang out lately.
    It's been hard for me because I purposely hide myself from writing.
    I don't like being biographical.
    But now I'm being more docudoc about it.
    I feel a small healthy detachment that allows me to be in the first person instead of hiding as an npc.
    Like when you came to my house I hid the fact my hand had been recently mauled by my dog and the er doc had to pull out a large string of nerves that had gotten split into two silver hairs braiding around a slice of skin.
    Remember how anxious I was to have you guys not touch my dog or let him be too friendly. I never mentioned it on here when it happened and how it happened.
    Not till a long time after.
    Or if I did I don't remember.
    But when you came over I was barely getting used to using my hand again and going to the rehab. But I managed to not give away that I was maimed in one hand until the problem at the gate when you handed me the bolt cutters and I pretended like I actually had a chance of popping that lock when I could barely grip the handle.
    But I tried.
    Then promptly gave them back to you.
    But I couldn't open a a bag of chips without using my teeth.
    And even now my index finger feels numb and tingly and painful and extra sensitive all at the same time its even impervious to fire for a few seconds before I feel it in the bone.
    And if I prick it it don't bleed.
    It hurts like hell if I accidentally flick it on a hard surface. Like when you got a swollen nerve ending on the side of a knuckle and even slight bumps feel like you got jabbed by needles.

    So tell us your stories.
    You never know.
    I may one day decide to print the dsp anthology collection of poty posts as a physical non digital nft that is fungible and available exclusively in brick and morty stores in Rock album size art and format.

    Your imagination is as dirty as the pipe i tried to get you to smoke out of.
    I wanted to paint a nice picture for you guys.
    Kinda like a slice of waking life.
    Or a live action piece of performance art.
    Like that episode of vice where they go visit inbred Appalachian families.

    I placed every prop in perfect position to give off a kind of rock bottom aesthetic.
    I even wore an old led zep shirt full of burn holes to look even more the part.
    The fact that i had two perfectly clean pipes in full view yet insisted we use the filthy one was the chefs kiss
    And instead of feeding you we had you split a tortilla on your way out.
    I had a slow roast going but I totally forgot about timing it right. Again!
    I wanted to paint a nice before picture.
    Now it's time to paint the after picture.
    Bukowski did a thing but the point is always to do your thing. And that thing is always better than doing what bukowski did when you arent bukowski.
    We all painting one way or another.

    Well the tortilla making lady in the family died yesterday. She didn't make it but a few weeks after her husband died.
    She was really smitten by you. You were her type. My uncles type too. Poor guy was crushed when he learned how Rock Hudson died.
    His idol.
    And my uncle was my idol in a way.
    Now I gotta be the idol.
    I have no idea.
    Other than to be like him.
    Which is his sons worst nightmare.
    Whe they recognize I am their father.
    And have all of the dada data since my house was my uncles favorite place to flop at.

    It's a lot easier being the idle.
    Maybe the new tech religion should release the Apple iDoll.
    Fuck Build a Bear.
    Buy your child the iDoll.
    Programmed to validate every one of your child's special emotions while also becoming their one and only true cope.
    This state of the art coping mechanism will guarantee Apple has control of every instinct your inner child daily suppresses.
    While simultaneously stimulating their the sensual nature of the five senses tonm the fullest extent that our advertisers can extract relavant metadata.
    Doling out this Christmass.
    To a SJW mind control retail center near you.

    You kids still have the world by the shorthairs...ahhh..to be 60.
    Not they were my halcyon days.
    They were extremely tough years for me, actually, but you know what I mean.
