    People who feel they have to 'contribute' on everything...worse when they have no understanding...

    Or as I call it, the "every dog needs to pee on the fence post" syndrome.

    That's OK. I just found out a person I have for weeks been exchanging emails with from work named "Kim" is a dude. And he's got an Anglo last name so it's not like I would have assumed he was Korean.

    And he really is a dude, not just a woman who thinks she's a dude. It's like his parents just decided, let's F with everyone and name our son Kimberly.

    We need to introduce Ms. Kevin to Mr. Kim and really confuse the hell out of everyone.

    I just got a mailing addressed to Mr (my first name) (my wife's maiden name). Talk about emasculating.

    How does that even happen? Perhaps your wife put your name on a list as such?

    When we first got married, my wife was in the NG but very short time so she kept her maiden for awhile because it would have been a PITA for her to change it while still in.

    Before my wife changed her name, we bought a house using her VA bennies.

    Guessing the title or loan company sold our info and the rest is herstory.

    Not a rant, but not a best thing in life
    There are no coincidences. This a.m. I saved a little finch badly tangled in my bird netting. Then I get home from shopping and see a swarm of yellow jackets active around the Gator cover I stored on the porch. . Hubby sees a tore up hive protruding from the cover. Mind you I had planned on clearing off the porch in morning. While I was gone a raccoon had come in,I assume, and tore that nest up to eat the bees. That or a skunk.
    One good deed brought about another...lol. So will be spaying tonight...lucked out big time!!!! It was a big hive we never noticed. This is a fall has started sign,my absolute worst time for bee encounters.

    Do you have any idea how much shipping charges are for two rigid paddle boards? I could have driven pretty good distance to pick them up.

    See that look on my face to the left that is the look I have on my face. I suppose I could have volunteered to drive down and pick them up had I know that paddle boards were ordered. Frustrating.

    Go into a place to get my youngest some food. Three out of the four food people were wearing the masks right. The fourth, a land whale, had the mask below her nose making sandwiches. Nothing we do will make any damn difference. I swear. Half of me doesn't like her, the other half is who gives a darn because no one else follows any rules. 2020 is the worst.

    Probably less than the 20’ canoe I got a few years ago. I was home when it arrived. I assumed it would come on a freight truck but nope, they sent it on a regular old brown ups truck. I was about to walk out and help the guy unload it but I glanced out the window and saw he was already stomping around, cussing, and throwing a fit and the canoe was only about a foot out of the door so I decided it was probably best if I stayed out of sight. Watching the poor guy trying to get a 3’wide canoe out of the 2’ wide door and the subsequent meltdown was one of the funniest things I had seen in a while.
