Did Mr. Reese have this problem?

  • Tonya: You got chocolate on my pants!
  • Me: You got pants in my chocolate! It's two great tastes that--
  • Tonya: No. Just no.

30 seconds after this, my wife let me know that, if I wanted to remain married, I should continue shaving. My dreams of being a biker— quashed.

Austin Fit

It wasn’t much, but I felt like I accomplished something. I was out at the first meeting of Austin Fit’s Rock N Roll (half) Marathon training. We had a placement run, which ended up being a single mile, without walking. I haven’t run a mile without slowing, without stopping, since I separated from the Air Force.

Next week, two miles.

My younger dog, Augie, is finicky about where he does his business. What this means is that there are only a couple of spot he’ll go, and he has an elaborate ritual he goes through before he can go. I have to have some time to dedicate to walking him.

So, this evening, we stepped out to go. He took care of the first part of the ritual, and then we moved on to a preferred spot. He completed the routine, which consisted of walking in a circle for three to four minutes. He settled in to do his business, and then the sprinkler he was squatting near sprang to life. He looked horrified (he hates water) but dutifully finished his business, and then I got a soaking picking up after him while laughing hysterically. I suspect we’ll have to find a new preferred spot, this one might be dead to him.

Totally worth it.

What?

It’s been a year. News forthcoming.
