Random Thoughts of the Day

June 11, 2024

1. I solved a huge software issue at work today I'd never dealt with before. Proud of myself. Boss' response was about as dead as a fish. I spent HOURS trying to fix this instead of turning it over to IT. Would it kill you to, I don't know....say thanks?

Life.

2. STILL not sure how I feel about Ethan Page going over to NXT. I don't know that I'd give up the opportunity either, but what about Alpha 1? What about the Toy Vlogs he'd just started up again? What about the independent shows he was going to take part in? He can't do that under a WWE contract. I loved following his X account, but now...what can he post that won't be controlled by them? I'll always wish the best for him though.

3. Oldest son's birthday is Friday. He has invited me to his party, consisting of multiple people under the age of 30. I am not under 30. I am officially old and I feel it to the core.

4. Had fried okra from an air fryer for the first time tonight. I think I'll go back to frying in oil. NOT a fan.

5. Mom has decided to try and trick me by washing off in the bath with her handheld sprayer and skipping the soap and shampoo. She assured me she was using soap. Uh. Dementia does a lot to you, but it sure as hell doesn't make you a good liar. Bad enough I can't get her in there but once every 4-5 weeks. Nope. Next bath, I'll be assisting. Perfume can't cover everything up.

Got this pic from Classic Horror Films on X

6. The older I get the more I realize that I have yet to watch enough classic horror films. I need to fix that. There are tons out there. I know there are still some versions of Dracula that I haven't seen yet. Gotta fill that bucket list of watching every available version of Dracula - movies, tv shows, etc. LFG!!

And a bit of a side note: This took waaaay too long to post when all I had to do was paste the blog in and add the new picture w/link. WTF Wix?? I'm new to your CMS and you do this?

Summer Sunshine to you, Lex
