Just dropping this on the timeline before I go on a two hour walk with my dog.

Just popping in to say that I went and visited your mom at her job today.

I’ve been trying to be on here less for a couple different reasons, but had to post this for all you Jack Reacher fans (Reacher ‘Rounds? Is that anything?).

Okay, we get it, you’re adorable.

New year’s looking up already.

Much to consider.

Me hoisting a 32” CRT tv into my apartment complex’s dumpster.

Name the time and place and I’m there, my friend. Here’s to 2024.

Rare use of the bedroom TV this morning thanks to a very sleepy dog.

Back home to find that someone has put this flag up on the (supposedly) vacant building across the street. Google doesn’t have any exact matches, so I’m asking you folks. Any ideas?

If you’re nice to people, they’ll put the Irish directly into your Starbucks cup so you can take it on the plane.

Missing my dog today (she’s fine, just boarding while we’re out of town), so here’s a photo from Scarlet’s first Christmas, back before she gained full control over both ears.

My wife and I hadn’t felt the holiday spirit yet this year, so we decided to spend the afternoon trying to change that. Went and saw the tree at Rockefeller Plaza, lit some candles for friends & family at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and now we’re having ridiculously overpriced cocktails at a hotel bar.

My mom sent my dog some Christmas-themed toys and my dog decided that Santa needed a little taste of Castle Doctrine.

I stumbled upon one at 90th and West End Ave earlier this year. Didn’t check to see if it was functional, but the pack of smokes on top makes me think “maybe”.
