I found this note left on my door once, years ago, and think about it every once in a while. I cannot even remember if I had a vehicle in for repairs at the time...

Yeah, some people cannot write for shit. You wouldn't even believe it. I used to both attend and work at a college, and occasionally I'd exchange emails with another student after talking to follow up. They would seem perfectly normal when we chatted, both reasonably eloquent and intelligent. Then they'd email me and it'd get flagged as spam because they made Nigerian prince scam emails look grammatical. They were borderline gibberish, like your sign above. I never could figure it out and never had the courage to ask them, "You're clearly capable of forming a comprehensible sentence. I have personally witnessed you both speak and read. How did this happen?!"

Unrelated, I had somebody leave an unhinged flyer on my door once. I think I put it on the fridge. Somebody remind me in the morning and I'll go take a pic if it's still there.

It's morning!

I have to tell one of the ladies on my team that when she sends emails, she needs to use punctuation. Otherwise her emails are just one really long run on sentence. She used to be a TEACHER 🤦‍♀️

This just popped up on my memories today.

I remember that day like it was yesterday… I got home dog tired from work, loaded that disc in, got stoned, brewed some coffee, and started a load of laundry while I waited for the install to finish. After the load screen and intro, I, as Franklin, walked into the most bullshit representation of what I WAS JUST DOING AT WORK.

Anyway…

We’re old.

Carry on.

Took my kids to a trunk or treat. I rode my skeleton dinosaur. At one point we passed a trunk with a bunch of other people in dino riding inflatibles, and some guy in a trex one wanted to take a selfie, but totally didn't include the costumes... So it was just me and him...

Anyway.

I bought the pizza oven I have wanted for years, and it's down pouring outside. We haven't had rain in a month and now I have to wait to use itView attachment 24022
Just risk burning your house down! No big deal.

One time, way back, a friend of mine hosted a BYOL Lobstoberfest (Bring Your Own Lobster) and we were cooking them outside in a giant container, like what you would use to deep fry a turkey. It was raining, so we decided to grab his patio umbrella and hold it over the cooker while we were getting it all done.

Lol, thats awesome. In the summer, sure. When its 40 degrees and raining, I'll wait.

My brother wants me to build a little tiki hut around my grill and pizza oven so we can have pizza and margaritas no matter the weather.

Oh wow, I can't wait to see the results. We upgraded to a pizza stone last year and that was a game changer - this looks even more epic.
