I treated myself to six little collections of digital backgrounds yesterday on Etsy.com ... each with 16 to 40 high-resolution images. I already have a million ideas for the gray neutral patterns and the pastel wood!
It’s official, people ... my morning meds* are knocking me for a goddamn loop today. As I sit at my desk I’m swaying from side-to-side, I’m dizzy, I can’t focus my eyes, and I want to drag myself into the family room to take a nap on the chaise except I’m positive I won’t be able to make it that far right now.
This is all a little scary for me, but please don’t tell Sam because he’s still in Seattle and I don’t want him to worry about me. Even so, I sure wish he was here. I need another can of diet ginger ale but I don’t want to shove myself backwards to the teeny fridge because I might fall off my desk chair. Why does retirement have to be so fucking complicated?!
[*These include Benazepril Hydrochlorothiazide for high blood pressure, Gabapentin for neuropathy pain in my legs and feet, and a substantial dose of Norco for everything else. All of them make you feel seriously inebriated.]
Holy shit. THERE WAS A MURDER IN MESQUITE! Police are investigating after a man was shot with a bunch of bullets and left to die on Scyene Road near the World-Famous Mesquite Championship Rodeo. The victim was 25-year-old Armando Macias, Jr. I didn’t know him, but oy, Armando got SHOT!
Because Mesquite’s most heinous criminal activity typically includes running a red light, shoplifting and the dog eating your homework, Crime Stoppers is offering a reward up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest. Call (214) 373-TIPS. They’re not joking. Thank you.
For your possible interest the following map denotes: 1) Howdygram headquarters; 2) the murder scene; 3) my doctor’s office at the Baylor Family Health Center; and 4) our favorite Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market. This is where we fill my prescriptions and buy my favorite sugar-free Jell-O cups.

Also ... on Thursday, May 26, you’ve got a whole day of John Wayne’s earliest westerns from 1931 and 1932, proving beyond doubt that he had to be giving somebody in Hollywood a lot of sex because the man had NO ACTING ABILITY WHATSOEVER ... and he ran like a girl.
Thank you for reading this. I need a nap now.
