Awkward Thanksgiving with the ex-wife this afternoon, followed by pie and movies with my daughter, and then a 2nd date tomorrow.
I would not be able to deal with something awkward like that. I'm so glad my ex and I are still on good terms. She's really my best friend.

The sad part is I always thought she was my best friend but she's an entirely different person now.
All good! I'm going out on dates and I'm going downtown to dive bars so at least I'm getting out there!

I can get behind that one.
"O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
My debit card was hacked today. Bastards. I've jumped through all of the hoops with my bank so hopefully nothing else will be purchased through it. Egads.
So, howzabout everyone else? Plans, either nefarious or seemingly innocent?

No big plans this weekend. A bit of Christmas shopping, Christmas decorating, and a couple of minor maintenance tasks with the cars. I should log in to work and get something wrapped up so I don't get yelled at.

Thanks! It'll get sorted out. I just gotta gripe about SOMETHING every day!
I used to date someone from Manchester, believe it or not. She moved to the States right out of university to become a nurse.

Finally bit the bullet this weekend (no pun intended) and bought myself a decent hunting rifle, so from now on I won't have to borrow one to use during deer season every year.

My father, a cardiologist, had a patient who was a gunsmith. Said patient took an 8 mm Mauser and carved a new stock for it. Beautiful weapon. Dad gave up hunting. I expressed a desire to own that rifle when Dad was ready to give it away. Thing is, I was in the Navy and on my way overseas at the time. Dad gave the rifle to my brother in law, who soon ran short of money and sold it. Really pissed me off.

OMG I'd be so upset about that. My sister's ex-husband ruined the stock on the .22 rifle my dad left to my sister by trying to make it look "camo" by spraying three colors of paint onto it. She damned near shot him with it.
I have his antique .12 Gauge double barreled shotgun. That'll knock you on your butt if you're not used to shooting it!

Please tell me you sit on the porch in a rocking chair, a-wearing dungarees and a large hat, with a straw in your mouth, and the shotgun on your lap.

I don't, but by gum I'll start in a-doin' it now!

Even though I quit hunting 45 years ago, I'm from Arkansas and it's a biological imperative that I ask what sort of rifle you bought.
There was a Woodstock revival thing in... 1994? in Saugerties, NY. Right over the hill from where my folks lived. My step-mother took a picture of my Dad sitting on the front steps of the house with his .410 shotgun in his lap. Something about "damned hippies", as I recall.
