It has been a few years since we’ve had a visitor of the slithery, reptilian variety. Tonight’s home invader was not a garter snake though. Google images has lead me to believe it was a milksnake. “Was” being the key word.

I’m sure that in a one-on-one, Mano-y-Mano situation, Patches could have kicked it’s ass, but I figured I’d help her out this time.

I’m in the right place, but I’m all alone. Maybe someone will show up by the time the meeting is scheduled to start. Six minutes to go.

Our house is insulationally challenged, but our new room is all set.

We had a band practice tonight. I played my Les Paul. My first born was getting a little jealous of the new kid so I took it out for a spin. It was also the first time I played the Les Paul through the new amp. I was pretty pleased. I recorded the whole thing again and on a quick rough mix listen it sounds pretty good. I used the Keeley D&M drive for all of my dirt tonight. Next time I’ll use the Wren and Cuff Super Russian, then I can listen back and compare. I think our playing was down a step, as we haven’t practiced much lately and it shows. I know my playing was off.

We still don’t know if our 11/9 gig is on or not. Hopefully we’ll hear in a couple of days.

The cat was annoyed that I planned on watching The Walking Dead on my iPad last night.  She wanted to sit on my lap, but there was a tablet computer in the way.

She got her revenge when the FiOS app stopped streaming AMC with about 20 minutes left in the 90 minute episode.

It’s Friday October 5, 2018.  It’s 20 minutes to seven in the morning and it’s 54 degrees out.  I. Hate. Winter.

It’s also my sister’s birthday.  Wish her a happy birthday.  It’s a milestone year for her.  I’m not going to say which milestone because I’m going to hit the same milestone in three years and I. Don’t. Wanna.  The only negative to her reaching big numbers is that I reach them next.  Yikes!

I had a stressful day at work yesterday.  Here’s hoping I have a less stressful day today.  Fingers crossed.

The Red Sox are in the playoffs and their division round opponent is the Yankees.  Game one is tonight.  The pitching matchup is Sale vs Happ.  We have the edge in this one, assuming Sale doesn’t have a Price-like aversion to post season pitching.  We’ll probably know by the end of the first inning.  This is the fourth time the Heroic Red Sox have met the evil Yankees in the post season.  The Yankees won the first two meetings, but we won the historic, life altering, super amazing series in 2004.  Here’s hoping we can win this one with slightly less drama.  Go Red Sox!  Game time is 7:32pm on TBS, which means the first pitch will probably be somewhere around 9:45pm.  I hate national coverage.  Oh well.

New closet, new electrical work, new shower stall! Progress, babie!

Hey America, did you get one of those presidential alerts on your phone today?

Just think, it could be just like Twitter except no one can block him for being nazi garbage.
