Turns out it is not pills. It is liquid. A bottle of it that I have to drink half of to start with, and then 6 hours later, the other half. What?? It is a 16 oz bottle like this..

Having a fly situation/ordeal. He got in here somehow. Buzzed about my head and ears. I was annoyed.

Forgot about him, till I opened the fridge for Iced tea. Out he flew! Fly! Surprised by fly.

Then felt bad as for so long he was in there. Must have got cold.
Big fat fly, don't know where he is now.

Opened the door, maybe he's gone and ok. Might have to call office maintenance or 911

NN, I really needed to laugh this morning, and you made that happen.
I love how you can tell something. (It has been a month since Chris Cornell died. Been crying a lot this morning.)

I had a moth situation today. Cleaning the bathroom and looked in the toilet--what is that? :) Little brown moth submersed and dead in the toilet. Got ready to put Tidy Bowl cleaner in, then thought, Poor thing. Maybe he's not dead? Got him out with a tissue and let him drain. Couple minutes later, he's crawling around, looking at me, like, thanks danie. I took him outside and put him on the bricks to dry out in the sun. He flew away. I think I saw him look back and smile.

Not a big deal, but a random thought I have when I start reading on my Kindle. I love reading on my device, but find it annoying that, when I open a new book, the first page that comes up is the first page of text. I would like it to start on the book cover. In a real book, I've always liked looking at the cover, thinking of it as the outer wrapping paper of the new adventure present I'm about to open. I enjoy seeing the Other Books by this Author page, title page, Author Dedication page, Table of Contents, etc. I have to go back 7 or 8 pages to start on the cover. I thought maybe I could fix it in settings, but no. Have looked it up on the Netterwebs too. No luck.

Forgive me if I've shared this before now. It's me playing Stella By Starlight...reminds me of something Sam from Casablanca would play. Just imagine ceiling fans cutting the muggy air and a foggy tarmac at night...here's lookin' at you, kids.

That's beautiful, Doc... you're very talented.
It's technically something we would normally put into the Self Promotion area, but seeing as you're merely sharing and not promoting it, I think it can probably stay here.

Parents nowadays baffle me. Just got out of a discussion about kid summer bedtimes where moms were moaning that their kids as young as 4 are staying up until 1am regularly, and they just don't know what to do about it. When I suggested a set bedtime (my youngest goes to bed about an hour later than his school bedtime, to account for bright daylight, most nights, and sleeps about an hour later in the morning), I got a chorus of, " But they wouldn't like that!"

Apparently, "So what?" wasn't the answer they were looking for -- lol.

I'm getting too old for this suffering fools crap.

No doubt. I can remember how conversations with my dad went about going to bed....

Mom: "Ok, time for bed."

Me: "AWWWWW, but it's summer, I don't wanna go to bed."

Dad: "Go to bed, or I'll come PUT you to bed......James."....not even looking up from whatever hunting magazine he was usually reading.

Imagine a smoke cloud where I had been standing 1 second previously as I launched myself at a full sprint toward my bedroom.

Now, my dad putting an emphasis on PUT and using my first name were both indicators that clearly meant "This conversation is not open for discussion, go to bed OR ELSE."

Nope, we didn't run the show when we were kids, mom and dad did. Different era I guess.
