Why Am I Not In Italy?

Sono vecchio, grasso, e lento.
I also need another tattoo. Or piercing. Or both.

Unfortunately I also inherited the “This tastes like soap” condition. However, I do really enjoy black licorice so I just naturally assume someone was f*cking with my tastebuds when I was constructed.

Marines?!? Boss Nob and the rest of the Wreka Krew would lyk a wurd.

I'm always willing to paint, just can't be held accountable for what they look like in the end.

My son is in to #Warhammer Kill Team, and I have very recently picked up a set of miniatures to build and play with his group. I've been told one of the cool things is #PaintingWarhammer, however as a #Colorblind individual I don't think I'll enjoy that particular aspect very much.

That Lego set looks strangely familiar. Can’t write out my finger on where I’ve seen it before though. Congrats though, lots and lots of tiny little pieces.

Because my employer prohibits me from making specific types of statements on social media, I will post something unrelated to what I really want to say.
I’m currently waiting at the barber shop for a #beard trim and listening to a number of people getting a lot wrong about #politics right now.

Mikko hopes everyone had a great #Caturday except for the squirrel she is watching so intently. That thing is lucky it’s on *that* side of the glass door.

I do that but it's mostly when I am concerned about arrival time and not because I need directions somewhere. Also useful if there happens to be construction/obstructions along the route I had planned on taking.

Hard to get in the #HolidaySpirit when there are so many families torn apart by this administration. Add on to that so many more facing the loss of their healthcare as subsidies expire. Not sure about you, but I’d rather my #taxes be used to help people, not corporations.

Sometimes, but I've also dealt with people enough to also realize that a surprisingly large number of the also do not make sense sometimes.

#NotreDame vs #Pitt today. Put another way, my favorite and second favorite college teams going head to head. I want both of them to come out victorious for different reasons. Irish to stay in playoffs and Pitt to remain in #Top25.

Lived in Orchard Park area outside of Buffalo as a kid (very long time ago). Your last name is very similar to one of our neighbors back then, and I recall it being pronounced 'andres-YEV-skee'. Is that close?

Disappointed in my senator today. Not a fan of doing my essential job without pay but at least I felt like I was doing it so millions of other people didn't lose access to affordable health care. This 'compromise' for a future vote which could easily be ignored by the House feels like a betrayal.

We live in a puritanical society where the body is taboo but violence is acceptable. Kinda bass-ackwards from most of the world, but what do I know. I grew up overseas and have 'funny' ideas about stuff.

Met a newly wed couple while I was in Parma last year as they toured Europe. They had visited France, Spain, Portugal, and (obviously) Italy. They were going to Germany next. The bride: "the food has been incredible. I can't wait to see what Germany is like"
I didn't have the heart to tell her.

Today is my #Birthday.
Last year I spent it in #Italy, wandering the streets of #Parma. This year, due to the uncertainty surrounding the government shutdown I am spending it wondering if I have enough in savings should it go on for an extended period of time.
Stay safe my friends.

A long (long long) time ago I began reading books in a series by #TerryPratchett called #Discworld. I read, physical books, up to the 8th book (Guards! Guards!) before life and the military got in the way. I just started listening to them again, and have just finished 'Eric'. Looking forward to more

There is a specific way to mix their White Chocolate wine with their Raspberry wine which is essentially pure heaven in a glass.
