Man I hope you’re ok

I’m jealous you get to see these with new eyes

Our two cats and two dogs keep time like trainmasters and there’s no convincing them during the fall time change that “it’s ok, the clocks changed”. Pics to show how overmatched we are numerically

Jeeves and Wooster, two tuxedo cats, sleep on a fuzzy bedspread, curled together so tightly you can’t tell which is which

Lolly, a black Labrador, and Ivy, a yellow Labrador, sit on the floor of the toy-strewn den looking expectantly at my out-of-picture wife waiting for dinner to appear

I trademarked “twopeat”, excited to cash in

Vikings are on at noon tomorrow, think I’ll head over to La Cucaracha and make a fool of myself at the buffet

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 18h

Well, at least I wore my Blue Jays fandom lightly

My only comfort is knowing those guys at that bar in LA weren’t able to see that

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 19h

She can’t remember the last time

This is who I’m talking about

Ivy, a yellow Labrador, sleeps next to me during a tense ballgame

Had a good talk with her about the time change tomorrow and what that’s going to do to mealtimes. I feel like we’re on the same page

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 19h

Who’s Pages going to hurt now?

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 19h

Please please please please walk off walk

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 20h

That was more the pitch than the hitter

As a man of science I know it’s bad luck to count the outs down

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 20h

Quick, tape ad is on

geddy lee claps for the blue jays in 7/4 time

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 21h

Also, weirdly, tape?

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 21h

I personally wouldn’t have Scherzer back out in the 5th but if he can steal 3 more outs the Jays could sure use them

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 21h

Easiest lip-read this season

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 22h

Crazy catches from the Blue Jays

Ken Rhodes @knrhds.bsky.social · 22h

Haha I’ll give Bo that lingering look before the trot

This is the kind of heroic Minnesota cold-weather prep story I love to hear.

Maybe somebody who had to get to a lake-level cabin lakewater system valve to drain it after all the boats were winterized could chime in with a story

Note to my biographer: Disregard all previous posts about having made “the worst omelette so far,” today’s omelette is the current worst

Turned into a pretty fun evening

Two cartoonishly-carved pumpkins glow beside the entrance to our porch, one on a pedestal and the other in wet but pretty leaves

The teens in our neighborhood know that no one wants leftover candy, so they roll in late and pillage
