Pharmaceuticals
I spent the evening in drive thru again. I prefer that to checking people in for vaccines. The pharmacy hours got extended so I got to leave right at 8pm. Then I went shopping. Paper plates, fig bars, dark chocolate pretzels, Rx Energys, and COVID tests. I do not have COVID but my wife does.…

Holidays
Holidays? Between autism and poverty our nuclear family lost virtually all sense of tradition. We get candy for Halloween and sometimes even try to pass it out. But we don’t do church services on Christian holidays or parades on patriotic ones. My wife sent out Christmas cards last year I think. But I had to…

Song
If you don’t occasionally burst into song when you finally finish a long shift, what are you doing with your life? Sing! And be awesome!

Meatloaf (not really)
Epic Cooking Fail In my early twenties I lived in a house with six other guys. We rarely had anything that could be considered a meal. We were broke and hungry most of the time. I splurged and got a pound of hamburger. I wanted to do something special with it. I remembered or more…
