Patriots Day
Today is Patriots Day. It’s a state holiday in Massachusetts and Maine*. It’s the day we remember how this dude (and at least one other dude)…
went for a ride one night, which lead to some farmers and other dudes getting into a shooting fight with a bunch of foreign dudes in red coats at this spot…
*At the time Paul Revere went for his ride the area now known as the state of Maine was part of Massachusetts. It wasn’t until 1820 that Maine became a state on it’s own. Massachusetts has spent the last 201 years lamenting the loss of Old Orchard Beach and Bar Harbor and (eventually) Stephen King.
Home
I went to my parents house before noon on Friday and stayed until Sunday evening. I’m going to spend my work days there for the next week but I won’t be staying over. That will probably happen a few days a week starting in two weeks or so.
For now though… I’m home.
Bread Fail
Seems there is something missing from my lunch today.
Movie Night
No zombie movies tonight. Instead I’m going to finally watch the only Marvel movie I haven’t watched yet.
Stop Lights
This used to be the chain you pulled to turn on the lights at my father’s aunt and uncle’s place in Brighton. It was my second favorite part of that apartment. My favorite part was Uncle Jimmy’s little model trollies (he drove the trollies on the Green Line in Boston). Those are on the mantle in my living room.
Fail Averted
I’m not doing a photo a day thing. I did one from September 1, 2019 through August 31, 2020.
Success.
It’s just that once I finished I kinda forgot to stop. So from September 1, 2020 through April 11, 2021 I had a photo each day. Crazy.
When I woke up on the 13th I realized that I forgot to take a picture on the 12th. Fail. It’s okay because I am not actually doing a photo a day.
A few minutes ago I opened up Flickr and watched the last couple of days worth of pics upload. Much to my surprise there were two from the 12th. I took ‘em and forgot about ‘em. So I’m still on track for the photo a day I’m not actually doing. Cool!
The picture I took and forgot about was of a little gift an instacart shopper left for us. Thanks for keeping me on track!
Earth X
The Flash binge watch has reached the Crisis on Earth X crossover and Patches hates nazis both fictional and non-fictional.
Who Shot First
Han didn’t shoot first, I did, ya filthy animal.
