  1. Actually, I needed some understated chili cap toes to complement my brown Strandmoks, which are admittedly a little over the top. And I had $60 in AE bonus bucks, so thank you.
  2. Please, no. She just has a big personality. She has my sweet nature and her mother's sense of dramatic flair.
  3. Sorry to derail the bowl talk. Does anyone actually buy AAFLAC? If I understand their value, it’s indemnifying against health care insurance out of pocket maximums, right? What am I missing? They’re obviously profitable.
  4. This. 95% of CFB fans will never see their team in a playoff. It’s already semi-pro football and everyone else.
  5. She has a strong, dominant personality. It’ll take a special guy to commit matrimony without homicide.
  6. Not usually, no. But she and her stepmom spent the afternoon getting mani pedis and apparently the discussion at the nail salon was like the hair salon scene in Steel Magnolias.
  7. Nope. She’s obviously got my father’s instincts.
  8. Maybe it’s a midwestern thing. She’s probably just pulling my leg.
  9. My daughter says that 80% of the “male” youngsters (early 20s) consider pegging a routine sex act. In fact, it’s very common for a guy to own his own equipment. That is mind bottling to me. Not because I’m prudish, rather, it never occurred to me. (“Dad! Geez! I can’t believe you put that on surly!!”)
  10. More like 35, and Michael Lewis is timeless, IMO. Always a good read, more so with the benefit of hindsight. The Undoing Project is one of my favorites.
  11. Daughter: “get up. We’re going fishing.” Me: “it’s 40 degrees.” Her: “tough shit, wear layers. I’m going back to Chicago on Saturday so boo hoo” Slayed the trout and flounder. Most 23 yr old daughters don’t boss their dads around like that, but I’m happy to let it slide.
  12. Thoughts and prayers for those who still suffer. https://abc7amarillo.com/amp/news/local/ring-in-2024-sober-texas-liquor-laws-may-leave-new-years-celebrations-dry-san-antonio-texas-sunday-hurry-alcohol-purchase As you might know, liquor stores in Texas are not open on Sundays. However, in addition to Sundays, stores are prohibited from selling alcohol on selected holidays as well including New Year’s, which is Monday in 2024. Local liquor store owners say if you don’t act fast before Saturday night you'll be left without alcohol for 61 hours.
  13. Well, my wife believed this was true. https://laketravislifestyle.com/lake-travis-full-for-4th-of-july-weekend/
  14. Several mutuals, a few who like to party. A guy and his wife who are former drinking companions of mine are featured prominently in her feed.
  15. My stepmom has talent. She wove “Starry Night” from my late father’s shirts and presented me with this to hang in the house I bought on Friday.  
  16. @Wulaw Hornclosed my mortgage on Friday, so now I own two houses. He and his people are good, smooth transaction, would (and I hope to) buy money from him again. A more important endorsement, however, came from my title lady - we've done a few closings together, and she had nothing but good things to say about them.
  17. All my friends and relatives with self-made fuck you money (and the true benefit, freedom to do whatever they want, whenever they want) are entrepreneurs in O&G and construction. They were all impatient and risk-taking enough to quit college after a semester and go make their own way. Sure, they make fun of me because I read books, but I admire their social intelligence and ability to accomplish big things. I'm the schmuck with a salary.
  18. Mizzou. And of course they can’t be dependents for IRS purposes. And earn a certain amount of W2 income IIRC, and not leave the state for more than 3 consecutive days, and quite a few additional hoops. Edit - just checked the residency requirements for Cal Berkeley and y’all are right, it’s hard. I was wrong.
  19. For the days when it’s too shitty to actually fish…for Nintendo switch. Clever Christmas gift.
