rhapsodizing
This episode was so much fun. Completely silly. Totally entertaining. Loved nearly every minute. The first song, “Status Report,” was probably the best song: catchiest tune, lyrics that made us want to sing along. We’ve replayed those opening scenes so many times we know it by heart now. Loved the astounded expression on Spock’s face… Read.

bleep
This is so stupid. “Bleep” is so stupid. Even though I played it, I still think it’s stupid. I honestly didn’t expect it to work. I played it only because I was trying to get my brain going. I needed to a word, any word, to get some momentum going and I only had one… Read.

soured
After brewing a fresh pot of coffee yesterday morning, I refilled the electric kettle with about a liter of water and a half-cup of vinegar to de-scale it. Left it to boil while I returned to the video I had started on my computer. It was not the smartest move I could’ve made. I typically… Read.

Fayette State Park 27 May 2023
I woke up a little before six on Saturday morning, way before anyone in the campground was up and about. They all stayed up late the night before, gathered around the massive bonfires they built up in nearly every camp site. These were the quietest bunch of campers I’ve been around yet. I’ve been to… Read.

Fayette State Park 26 May 2023
I paid a visit to Upper Michigan’s Fayette State Park last weekend and it was, I am happy to report, worth every minute of the hours and hours it takes to drive there from Our Humble O’Bode. The park is beautiful, the campgrounds are comfortable if just a tiny bit cramped, and I had gorgeous… Read.

unhinged
I spent yesterday morning and all afternoon tearing the old doors off the garden shed, then rebuilding and rehanging new doors, with a lot of help from My Darling B, who volunteered her time to go to the lumber yard with me and also to hang the doors. I wish I had a better “before”… Read.

foundation
The shed is up on what I hope is a somewhat more secure foundation. There’s a heavy concrete block under each corner and in the middle of each side, and a thick piece of timber runs under frames along two of the outside walls and down the middle. I could have run timbers around all… Read.

fried at the muskie
Meat People was serving a special fried chicken dinner this afternoon, so My Darling B and I quit our yard work early, cleaned up and headed over to The Muskellounge and Sporting Club to enjoy some delicious cold drinks while we waited for dinner to be served. It was well worth the wait. Read.

jacked
My Darling B needed a garden shed for all her shovels and rakes (and implements of destruction) so we bought a kit to make one from a local hardware store and I put it together in the back yard about fifteen years ago. When we bought it, I asked the guy at the hardware store… Read.
