Only two more early Mondays for me here at KOMU - I start a new job in December that has hours closer to "normal" and I cannot wait to turn my late-night alarms OFF.

- Army man
- Dick Tracy
- Pee-Wee Herman

On their last visit, Kristopher Marin and Leslie Marin brought me an assortment of Russian candy from a shop in their town selling Eastern European comestibles. So of course I had to take notes on each one. 🇷🇺🍬🍫

For real, I think my biggest worry - the thing that scares me the most about this puppy - is that I'm going to get it wrong and that some mistake, some error, is going to lead to him permanently being bad or misbehaving. That he'll be forever ruined somehow.

What a weekend.

Enjoy the Biscuit pic because this isn't light stuff. 🧵

Maybe you've heard by now, but a church in Michigan got shot up. Four dead, more hurt, all but building destroyed by fire. A church shooting is tragically old hat by now, but this time it was a church of MY faith, MY religion.

The look my puppy gives me when I tell him to stop digging in the yard or to stop biting my shorts.

Will:
- lick your face until it's only muscle and sinew left
- snuggle up next to you for naps
- love you unconditionally

Will also:
- attack your shorts and socks like they're alien invaders
- stay just out of reach for hours when it's time to go inside

Lil Biscuit - still a menace when he gets in his bitey moments, but still utterly adorable and sweet the rest of the time. He's SO kissy when we get home from anywhere, and makes the cutest noises when he's telling us how much he missed us.

My friends. Amigos. Freunde. Amici. Приятели.

We have made it to that blessed realm which our ancient forebears referred to as "Friday."

Let us celebrate with random dances and memes.

Pleased to report the demon:angel ratio with little man is swinging more toward the good stuff. Still very toothy, still a little butthead but also still very very sweet and snuggly.

He's a lot, but he's the sweetest handful. #RiskItBiscuit

Rescued a lil guy from the newsroom last night.

On Friday we started working on getting this gremlin to sleep by himself at night. And it's gone really well so far...except last night was the first night I WASN'T there to be nearby, AND Tamara goes back to work (school) today, so I'm VERY nervous about how it went after I left.

Utter goblin, this one.

more good times than bad times
more in love with each passing day.

To Tamara, the best friend, buddy, partner, cheerleader, coach, counselor, guide and co-conspirator a nerd like me could ever hope to dupe into marrying them.

Now that our marriage is old enough to vote, buy lottery tickets and serve on a jury, we need it to go get a job and start earning its keep around here.
18 years with:
more smiles than frowns
more laughs than sighs
more heartfelt than heartache
more beaming than screaming

I'd like to congratulate Rapid Brands on inventing the microwave-safe bowl.

Bro LOVES to flop on the grass, sunny or shady.

Good thing we sprayed the yard for fleas last week.

This gave me a chuckle this morning.

Some of my LDS and LDS-adjacent friends who have been on LDS Twitter will recognize the name
