Tundras live: Dumb Dad Jokes, Incorrect Opinions, and Relationship Advice.

sage words. Transactional

in my 30 or so years of “work”, I work for $

I don’t work for friendship

the few folks I fraternize with are NOT from my work history

they are all neighbors or high school buddies

I won’t even eat biz lunch with salespeople or vendors. Breaking bread is special to me

I’ll only eat biz lunch with my biz partners.


It was a damn tough day when I realized nobody cares

Now it’s all family centric. And life is good




Except for these damn herons

 

I hate dad jokes. Here's Y.

 

I came across this the other day and thought about the retiree’s talk here.
There was an article I read (maybe 20 years ago) where every year worked past 65 shortened your life an equivalent amount. Probably fictional but food for thought. I’ve been retired for awhile. When my older brother passed a couple years ago, that was a shock.

 

Today is one of those days the wife and I are on different planets.

Go to a grocery store and I say lets walk the aisle. She agrees. And then darts across the store in the opposite direction.

After getting back on task, she remembers we need peppers and heads back to produce. Daughter and I wait on aisle 4. Wife then legit walks aisles 2-3 (again!) before turning onto 4.

At this point I take over pushing the cart and tell them just follow the cart. I haven’t had a nicotine craving for decades and I had one by aisle 5.

Liquor store and Home Depot were fine b/c I pushed the cart and stopped asking questions. I just made decisions.

Next, I need you to use your imagination. Say your spouse walked you into your favorite store and said “Pick out whatever you want”. Imagine the awesome.

My wife’s favorite store is a fancy cooking store in town. I green light it b/c I am short two presents for Christmas. She immediately turns to the section with glassware (which she just bought online a few months ago) and shit like cloth napkins and crap. I walk off cuz I’ve had it by then. She eventually shows up with four wood spoons and a goofy tool for her mom’s stocking.

Maybe I will work the holiday.

 

Are liquor stores open on Sunday?
I guess Texas isn't so great after all...

But it's all good, I don't drink liquor..

And I feel your pain, I hate going to the stores with my wife.
She wants to cruise every aisle..

 

Birds of prey downhill race course VIP tent. Guess who one of the sponsors was?

 

Zoom in and read the sign. This goes back to the question I had with within the last week, which is is it truly illegal to pass somebody on the right? Seems vague…

 

Very vague. Cuz if it was against the law the car shouldn’t allow it

 

Liquor sales are private here in WA. One of the very…umm…smart things we do.

 

Forgot to post the bird of prey.

 

Marriage is so fun!

 

Cool seagull

 

It may be my Wyoming interpretation, but that just sounds like "keep right except to pass" is the law, not that passing on the right is illegal.

 

Freedom pigeon!

 

That would freak me dafuk out.

 

Held her hand all day yesterday and it was awesome. Guess the universe needed balancing today

 

Are you afraid of birds?

 

Kinda weird in WA, like @Blue Thunder said our liquor stores are private run but we also have liquor in grocery stores.

 

Shopping of any kind but groceries especially is best done by yourself when the store is as empty as possible.

 

Allowing for private liquor stores was one of the best decisions our government has made in the last 50 years or so. Changing the tax rules to make it easier for craft breweries to get started was another.

 

Hermit life goals right here.

 

My buddy’s Granpda, literally lived in a cave south of here. It was actually super cool

 

Not sure I could do that down there. Too many spiders and scorpions, but the lack of maintenance on a cave definitely has an appeal.

 

His cave was a legit man cave, very minimalist; but the cave he built for his ex wife up the hill was elaborate!!!! Gutters on the perimeter for drainage, multiple rooms, kitchen, and a cool like indoor sun room kinda thing. He also had a dark room cave(into photography)

 

That sounds pretty freakin' cool. Depending on how much earth was overhead. My claustrophobia prevents me from enjoying underground things.
