Washington... Shut down the goverment,

 go home, and leave the rest of us alone. Pretty much what you have been doing anyway.

Beer thumb

Beer thumb.

40oz beer bottle caps are a little hard on the inside of ones thumb. The callous that has protected my thumb until now has become rather sore in recent days. Why? Two reasons are now offered up. One; I am drinking more; morning, noon and night. Two; some caps just do not like to break their bindings. The cap at these times only wants me to suffer mentally and physically.

Between the lines...cap; the meaning - quit drinking!...

Burning my bridges.

On my Burning bridges; I am wandering away from my latest bridge burning. This one involves my oldest son who is, I believe somewhat like me, a loner. For some years his wife had her friend tell me to contact them. I didn't. Then one day Michelle saw him and did what I told her not to do... give out my cell # to people! She did, he called twice... so I think ignoring the calls will fix that fire fighting effort. I believe I have finally eliminate family relations by now. When I did not attend my mothers funeral, that got rid of my brother and wife...

Quitting glass for now and maybe forever.
