I didn’t have to water my lawn once this summer. That’s how wet it has been back East.

I turned off the automatic watering system. I also stopped watering any other stuff with the hose.

I got tired of the stupid midwestern dreams of previous owners. Had all the plants and trees I killed cut down and taken away yesterday.

I wish I could get rid of the two giant eucalyptus trees in my back yard. That would cost about 20K.

Because I have a sprinkler system I usually snicker at my neighbors dead lawns in August while mine is robustly verdant.

Not this year. Those fuckers had just as green a lawn as I did.

My daughter lives in coastal NC, and not one person there has a sprinkler system.

Pretty brown this year though, compared to last year.

Would take me an hour a day to do it at least and with my work schedule and kid that ain't happening. But yea, my whole yard is mostly dirt and rocks. I just have those half a dozen fruit trees, some cactus, succulents, and about half a dozen other random bushes and things (no idea what they are).

Thought I was gonna lose my grass and just have weeds, stuff was super dry for over a month this summer.

Just had to mow the lawn this past weekend, usually it stops growing by now, we have only had two mornings of frost up here which is crazy, I got tomatoes out of my garden last week. Last year I put up a greenhouse in September to keep my 35 tomato plants alive, we canned 96 quarts of tomatoes last fall, some were from my parents garden but still. Glad we did it, I didn't put up squat this year, was a little preoccupied.

Thanks, guys. But the hits just keep comin'. It looks like a trip to Missoula is in the cards. I shouldn't complain that my mother is having problems. She'll be 94 in Feb. and she's fallen again and broken ribs and vertebrae. We were worried there wouldn't be hospital space for her because the Covidiot anti-vaxxers have soaked up all the beds, but somehow the universe freed up a bed. This will be the version of taking the keys from my father that I had to do a while ago. My brother, who is one of my personal heroes, carries a lot of water for our parents, but when it comes to this bit, he just doesn't have the emotional audacity. Sometimes the measure of love is calibrated in ugliness endured. This is gonna suck.

A good friend of mine who I worked with for 7 years died of breast cancer this week. She fought it as bravely as anyone I have ever seen but when it came around a 2nd time, she had nothing left to fight it. It was really a fucking gut punch to find out she had died. In the last 18 months, I've lost 2 neighbors & 1 friend to cancer. They all were integral parts of my life over the past 30 years. As they say, life is for the living

They have been fighting this disease for about 12 years and now they have lost the battle. Lino was a sweet kid who's childhood was completely disrupted by cancer and now he is gone.

Now lost 2 friends to treatable conditions because they didn’t want to go to the Covid Hospitals to get tests and treatments, putting things off past the tipping point, both losing their lives to “complications” of their conditions, not the conditions themselves.

Both were 40/under.

Both since August 1.

Man, be safe, but get your medical tests and treatments.

Also, get the fucking Vaccine because the hospitals aren’t overrun with vaccinated folks.

My most recent interaction was begging out of a mid-week trip to Anaheim to see him get an award after he begged me to come. Begged me. I took him to the airport a few weeks prior and he was like “and you’ll be there?! Promise. I’m gonna miss my flight if you don’t promise.”

I promised, but I never saw him again.

I think my sister got caught too. She said 'someone got access to her account'. I figure she gave 'em access by accident. On the other hand, she does answer all those seemingly innocent internet 'what does your birthday tell you about your toenails' phishing expeditions, so maybe they finally got enough info to guess all her details.

I haven't talked to her about it yet, but supposedly the bank is trying to figure it out for her.

I had transported mulch in the spring and a bunch of leaves to the compost site this fall (dealing with leaves is a Midwest thing) and we had numerous beach trips over the summer, so using the coin operated self-serve on our SUV wasn’t something that I thought would deal with the dirt/bark/sand/leaf mess.

Leave it to the professionals I thought…

Next time I’ll just wait for the following summer and let the high school cheer team wash it. Then when they do a half-ass job at least I’ll have the memory of the process to bring me joy.

My 12-year-old just got suspended from school for the week because he asked a classmate who identifies as a lesbian questions about being a lesbian.

The principal told my wife that if he didn’t suspend him and the story got out, it could mean his job.

I just picked up my son and basically told the principal that I think he’s a coward. That 12-year-old boys have questions about sex and that if someone is going to be public about their sexuality that they would get asked questions. He doesn’t care. He said there was a “power dynamic” involved.

So my kid is home now, crying his eyes out, suspended for four days because he had some questions about sex.

This is such fucking bullshit.

This almost exactly happened to my nephew last year. It’s a tough situation. Thankfully in our case the principal had a spine, but some nosy kid who overheard an innocent discussion of some bi-curiosity between a boy (my nephew) and a girl, made it a thing, told his parents and they freaked out and told other parents.

It’s important to let tweens ask questions and not shut them down, or the next time, they won’t ask and will go to the Internet and get more than they ever bargained for.

That is utter bullshit and I hate hearing that our school system is more concerned about protecting their "woke appearance" more than the actual kids themselves. Unfortunately, your son appears to be just collateral damage.

I know it won't help but I do know Dr. Miguel Cardona and the next time I see him I'm going to mention your little story.

Just tell your son what I still tell my son to this day - "Life is not fair and you can get smacked around even though you may have done nothing wrong. Just learn from it and move on, but don't let it consume you otherwise you will become a bitter old shit like your Dad".

I certainly don’t blame the girl. Especially since where we live is so socially, religiously, and sexually repressive (for example, they made teachers remove rainbow flags from their classrooms so now gay kids don’t know what teachers they can confide in).

I think you’re right JMark that she probably has tons of questions and nowhere to go to find answers. So here we are.

When I spoke to the principal I told him “I get it, you don’t want a ‘Me Too’ issue” and he flat out lied and tried to pretend he didn’t know what that was. So I told him to Google it and he said, “I don’t think I will.”

So, I’m at my friends funeral weekend, and the parents have conducted an autopsy and had some independent specialists check up on how their 40-yo son wound up dead from causes that seemed preventable.

It had long been believed infection killed Beau from a perforated bowel from an untreated worsening of his colitis. He had gone in and asked for help early November, then Monday of Thanksgiving week, then lastly, again, on Friday after Thanksgiving.

The cause of death was determined to be a perforated bowel and ensuing infection. However, it was caused by Stage IV sarcoma which ate away at his colon and stomach from the outside.

Apparently this type of Sarcoma is almost impossible to find via scan because it spreads surrounding existing interior elements, which camouflages it.

That said, the specialists said the Sarcoma was so advanced that it likely existed in his system for well over a year.

Had his white blood cell count been tested at any time during that year, the Sarcoma would have been found prior to the perforation. It would have been a dog fight to beat the Sarcoma, but, again, it was infection that killed Beau.

Ultimately the family seems at peace that a one in a million cancer took their son instead of neglect. But Beau was a former competitive weight lifter and personal trainer who went to the Dr 2x a year for checkups and went to the hospital multiple times for the weirdness he was feeling in November.

I still feel theirs strong evidence of Beau getting left behind because the medical professionals didn’t prioritize his non-Covid distress or do some simple tests early in November to help rule out a few things.

Even had the infection been set in early in November, it was so early they probably could keep him alive enough for a chance at fighting the cancer.

As it was, when he was admitted on Black Friday, the infection was in 60% of his body and his kidneys are barely hanging on. Within 3 days in the hospital Beau had coded before being brought back to life, but was unresponsive the remainder of the time until he did 2 weeks later.

That is a sobering story. You would like to think that if you seek medical care that you’ll get something more than a pat on the shoulder and a prescription for antacid just because the staff is so overworked that they don’t have the time or energy to really investigate what’s going on.

I’m so sorry for the loss of your friend. I hope you and his family and his friends can find comfort in your memories and each other.

His sister read my Facebook tribute to him in her eulogy and it hurt more than anything.

He truly was one of the best people I knew. Genuinely kind. I remember talking with him at the beginning of the pandemic when he worried his event sponsorships and marketing commissions would dry up because he feared he wasn’t ruthless enough to survive.

His numbers grew during the pandemic because at a time when the world was full of fakes, his clients saw his sincerity and stuck things through. Several came to the funeral yesterday, including 2 Fortune 500 CEOs.
