Stabbed to death at her birthday party on Saturday by a piece of shit who was angry because he was kicked out of his apartment for selling drugs.

Rest In Peace, sweet girl.

So, I found this item on Amazon called “Premier Deck Chair For Sheep”, and I’m all “WTF?”

I kid you not: A deck chair. For sheep. And I gotta tell ya, that last picture? That’s one happy sheep.

We can barely put 6 people in orbit at the same time, and even then, we have to rely on a foreign country to do it for us. But Spanky wants Space Rangers. Sure.

I want the drugs he’s taking, because mine just ain’t cutting it.

Today, I crossed 45 lbs. lost.

Words cannot describe when I first saw my scale go from ERR to giving me a number earlier this year. Today, I got that same feeling.

I turn 50 next weekend. I won’t do it at over 500 lbs. BEST. BIRTHDAY. PRESENT. EVER.

Thank you, LoseIt!

This graph from the LoseIt! app tells the story.

See that spike on the left? That’s at 520 lbs. I had to use the ER scale to weigh at a doctor appointment. I was mortified and knew something had to change.

When I started at the beginning of the year, I didn’t have an accurate weight, so I went with 500, the max my scale could weigh, which is that long plateau you see.

Even though the app only shows 25 lbs. lost (it thinks I started at 500), I know the true number.

Side note: this is why I loathe having to have a Windows machine for that one little task that can’t be done on a *NIX machine. Deleting files shouldn’t require a g*ddamn google search.

Windows Disk Cleanup.

Because we don’t trust you enough to put files in the recycle bin and then authenticate with your admin password like a big boy or girl.

Just back from seeing Solo: A Star Wars Story, and I have mixed emotions.

I’ll have to think on this and write a blog post tomorrow. Right now, I’ll say that I don’t regret spending money to see it.

Just in case you thought Flat Earth theory couldn’t get any more stupid: the Flat Earth is a “pond” on the Great Ice Ball. Which may or may not be hollow.

The Flat Earth. Exists on a sphere.

Flat. On a sphere.

The Earth itself can’t possibly be a sphere. Because that would be stupid.

Working theory: there is always more debris in the gutter than originally estimated.

Where has this been all my life?

FLOWCHART ALL THE THINGS!

Small towns and suburbs.

You know, places you’re most likely to find NRA members and “gun culture”.

Surely it’s a coincidence.
