A bit late, here's my #introduction:
I'm Rob, 50-something, #LGBTQ. This is purgatory layover on my flight from hell.* I enjoy music and travel.

I’m waiting for the total green light, but I’ve blocked off my birthday PTO in February/March. Now I need to pick a destination and start planning. Mari Grad is early this time so maybe NOLA? Back to CA, Puerto Rico or UK?

Hank Williams Jr, Snoop Dogg and Sheila E are definitely the oddest match up for Monday Night Football. Guess Carrie told’em to bag sand. 😂🤣😂

I need to decide if I’m traveling abroad or staying in the US for my birthday. Airfare to London is still about half what I paid last year (same class, etc,)

Both supermarkets were basically empty 4 nights before Thanksgiving and shelves were filled to the brim. I think all the reports of people not being able to afford groceries are hitting all communities. Make a Food Bank donation if you can this holiday season!

Because my 81-year old aunt wanted to, I went to see Act 2 of Wicked tonight. Once we got thru the 30 minutes of ads (and someone told the projectionist to turn off the damn lights) it’s was pretty good.

Officially, no more pennies are being made. Heard someone say the nickel is next.
When you really think about it, ALL fiat money costs more to mint than it’s really worth.

It still feels surreal that people connected with the first book, and I'd love to give something back.
If this post hits 500 shares, I'll make the Beyond The Mark eBook free for all of December.
No catch, just a thank you for the support and a push to keep me writing.

I just ordered a case on Amazon for delivery tomorrow. It’s probably a knock-off. I was planning to upgrade my phone to a newer model anyway. This I will do thru my carrier.
