In the 18th century Francisco Goya produced a series of etchings called Los Caprichos, which satirized the political, social, and religious abuses of his era. One of my faves is this: "El sueño de la razón produce monstruos" (The sleep of reason produces monsters).

Nothing gives me more pleasure than sending my brother a picture of a dog scratching his bum on the carpet right after he sends me something sappy. 😂
Don’t think for a moment he has not done the same.

Apparently I make this face a LOT while I’m grading papers. I’m just grinning with joy at a job well done but my kids say this is my “I’m smirking and gonna kick your ass” face.
Wha?!

I took this picture one month ago.
Fall was in full swing and the election was still a week away.
If it feels likes a lifetime ago, you’re not alone.
Just remember that this too shall pass, and where we end up depends so much on what we choose to do over the coming months and years.

My first pecan pie. I made this one with golden syrup in lieu of corn syrup. A bit sweeter IMO but also a deeper flavor. The bourbon mighta helped.

The household report
I few days ago I found a video made by my teenage boys, which showed Woody (of Toy Story fame) being brutally murdered on their bedroom floor.
Apparently they got hold of my phone and left me a new video, which is equally freaky.
Poor Woody. Poor Woody.

My kids are, once again, f—-ing with me.
They somehow figured out my phone password and they’re leaving movies in my “files” folder.
Some friggin’ Blair witch stuff going on in my house…

Flashback Friday:
During the pandemic 😷 our kids were eating us out of house and home.
This was my solution. 🤷🏽♂️
