Last weekend I thought I was being so slick watching my neighbors get towed because they forgot that the parking lot was going to be seal coated. Five cars got pulled out and I actually started to feel bad until I went to get out myself later that evening and found that I was trapped in the basement parking garage. Aint that some karmic bullshit.

I had plans that night so I had to take an Uber but I just chalked that up to an idiot tax. I will tell you now that I have someone I enjoy spending time with writing in this thing doesn’t bubble up to the top of my brain like it use to. Kind of a testament to the life I was living before. In retrospect it was a task based existence. Meaning I went from thing to thing checking items off a list including writing this nonsense. Holy Hell its how I treated EVERYTHING in my life at that time… Dating, therapy, checking in with the kids, all of it. Life is a series of chapters and that was definitely a weird one.

I was all excited to be riding in the front of the bus this morning until the entitled dickwhistle in front of me decided to recline all the way back for the entire flight. I don’t want to debate the flight etiquette around reclining but if you ever happen to be seated in front of a larger than normal human please be thoughtful. Plus, the amount of odd airplane fuzz on that seat almost made me miss the flying with face masks days…

And I will leave you with an old ass picture liberated from my parents house. This would be circa 1984 in Padre Island Texas. Young Tom with hair and a pornstache was riding in a classic Camero which meant a road trip with no air conditioning. I am not smoking, the picture is damaged and I have no idea what the story behind the Garfield doll was but I’m sure I thought it was hilarious. This picture makes me smile and cringe all at the same time. While I don’t miss that crazy mop of hair I do envy that relatively straight nose. Some fights later in that young mans life took a toll.
