Time for my annual holiday post. I like to draw stuff in Paint using just the available shapes and lines the program offers, with my mouse as the only pen. Takes a while, but this is my favorite one I've done:

Finally caught up on #bigbrother after 2 weeks of painting the exterior of my house and then out of town for a work conference. Haven't seen any socials or stories. So total surprise. But sooooooo glad the house voted against Rachel's wishes. That was almost better than who was evicted

Damn, I guess I missed out on a $40 droid that doubles as a platform, plus two action figures and a diorama that isn't related to the OT...

Oh well.

I do not have the space, nor the budget. But damn I just put in my pre-order for this. And then pre-ordered another GI Joe Classified Retro B.A.T. to act as the driver. But maybe I should get another Cobra Commander...I spend too much effing money on things. Someone needs to take my phone away....

In the U.P. visiting family; driving into Marquette and gas was $2.99 at Meijer. Went to eat. Picked up a prescription for my mom at Walgreens. Drove past Meijer again (maybe 2 hours later) and gas was now $3.38. WTF!?!

I do not like poetry:
stanzas
meters
rhymes
or the words contorted to imply:
this one

in your life
means something more than those in mine

I have never paid after-market prices for a new toy. It sometimes takes work, and sometimes have to pay standard shipping fees I try not to pay. But if people stopped paying scalpers everyone would get things for retail price. But what do I know ...
And the lesson here is 'if you miss out, just wait.'

Ah, my favorite time of year: when my friends complain how they pay to have someone else prepare their taxes, but never complain how much they pay the other 364 days of the year for someone to change their oil, or cook a steak, or shop for them in Wally. Or from where their own salary is derived.
