It’s my squadron’s military ball this weekend. Which means it’s time for my favorite thing which is giving soldiers/spouses awards and catching up with friends. Also the beer in a Stetson thing, but mostly the awards.

The gods let me survive another year. Though I did wake up with a wicked sinus headache, that has finally gone away. So I shall end my birthday watching Fury while my cat naps on me and I continue to drink water because I’m definitely dehydrated from the meds.

This will be me all day at this dog and pony award ceremony I’m being forced to go to. For context I’ve received 3 texts in the last 24 hours reminding me about it and the dress code. I give it ten minutes before I’m told to “smile more “

Me: trying to get ready for a date.
My cat: this is clearly the perfect time to throw up on the carpet and then I’ll hide in the garage when he tries to leave.
Me: this is why we can’t have nice things.

Someone made a jail break when I went out to light my grill. 20 minutes later she saunters up as I’m walking around looking for her, no remorse in her eyes.

Every night at work for the last 11 months I drive by a little house. There’s always a few cats outside hanging out and for whatever reason it always cheered me up a bit. Tonight I saw the homeowner and stopped and talked to him. Guy doesn’t even like cats but decided 1/

There’s always one guy who doesn’t get that the combatives training is about learning the technique and practicing it. So anyways I’m off to get chest X-rays to find out if I just have bruised ribs or he actually cracked one with his elbow strike in a “no strikes” training event
