Random Thoughts and Updates

My apologies to you, my loyal and faithful reader.

The dog days of summer got to me and I got busy.

Hot.  Busy.  Tired.

Yup – that’s me.

I wanted to catch you up on a few things.

Plus – I have a few random thoughts.

Update or random thought – I’ll let you figure out which is which.

I’ll number, not in any order of importance, but to make it easier to separate things.

1 I’m a cultured and multi-talented man.  I can use chopsticks with the best of them – HELL, I think if pressed I could eat soup with chopsticks.  At a restaurant I’ll use chopsticks when I eat rice and sushi.  I also use chopsticks at home when I eat sushi.  There just seems something wrong eating sushi with a fork, or even your hands, it has to be chopsticks.  BUT – when I’m at home I will eat rice with a fork and/or a spoon. 

2 For those wondering – my snakebite wound is fine.  But HOLY COW it hurt.  Envision a hot needed going into your ankle.  OUCH

3 The sign above.  What’s the 1st thing that comes to your mind?  For me, it’s, “Well, it doesn’t say anything about urinating”.

4 Living where I do and dealing with weekend traffic as I do – there exists no punishment too severe for those that block the intersection when the light turns.

5 or rather 4.1  –  Maybe I’m just getting old but it’s crazy how when I drive on a back road, usually 1 lane in both directions the speed that people pass me.  The other day I was going 56 (I think), the speed limit was 50 and I was passed by 2 people in a hurry to get somewhere going a ridiculous speed.

6 Jeez it’s been hot this summer.  I mean seriously.  It’s crazy hot.  Tell me you’ve noticed.

7 My shoulder is still hurting.  I got an MRI – AFTER ABOUT 2 MONTHS – but it doesn’t get read until August 2.  I’m 50/50 about whether I want it to reveal something.  I kind of want it to be ok and need nothing other than strength through PT.  But in a way it would be nice to reveal something so I know why in the world it’s hurting so much.

8 As Kate approaches her sophomore year in college and Charlotte goes into 9th grade – HIGH SCHOOL.  I shake my head in disbelief – HOW DID THIS HAPPEN !!!

9 Kate’s Boyfriend – yes, you read that right, Kate has a boyfriend – came up from Georgia to surprise her for the weekend.  It went well.  She was surprised and he’s a good guy.  I approve.

10 We got a bushel of live crabs Friday night.  $99 a bushel.  They were #2s, but for $99 it was great.  And that bushel was packed too.  If you see the sign at 5-points in Lewes, do yourself a favor and stop and get a bushel.

That’s all I got right now. 

Got a few posts started – but I can’t get them to flow right.

Plus, I’m told I get too wordy.

Me … wordy …..

I know that sometimes “Less is More”

But  when it comes to BecauseJimSays.com – “More is More”
