Almost A Week

It has been almost a week since my last post. I get into “writing” mode and all I can think to do is write. Then, all of a sudden I get out of it and don’t even want to check my WordPress.

Not much going on this week. I was off the schedule, so I had an extra day off from work which is nice. I appreciate that. Still, I miss my old job at Albertsons. I guess I am just more of a front end kind of person than anything else. I enjoy the work of the Front End though I do not do Cash registers. I guess I just thought certain skills from the Front End and the Navy would translate to a good job in security. But now, I realize I am working in unarmed security. They may want me to move up to being armed security. But they haven’t said anything.

I check my WordPress about once a week now. When I get into a writing mood I can write about just about anything. Earlier I had someone, Halverson debunk one of my memes. The meme was about the amount of methane released by bison compared to that of cows. I told him I don’t think the issue is really relevant. That is, I think worrying about methane from cows is just coming up with things to worry about. Same thing for bison. Like trees, and CO2 we need a certain amount of methane or else it would get to cold. Just like that without trees our oxygen would be no good. Not trying to be scientific per say but I am just clarifying that I shared the meme because I think the data is irrelevant, not because I think the data is correct.

Now Scott is over, and just sitting next to me. We went over to my Mom’s house. Joey was eating a pot pie. Then, we came back and Scott talked to my Dad about buying a gun safe. My Dad, and my brother William had gone to Academy to look at gun safes, which is what started the conversation.

Marc Renkema passed due to Pancreatic Cancer about a week ago. I had relayed this information to my Mom, that he had passed from cancer. It was my Mom who looked up what kind of cancer it was. The Renkema’s taught at a church that we attended up in Washington. So, that is our connection to them. According to my Mom, he was 54 years old.

I could just write and write right now. I have been playing World of Warcraft lately. Blizzard did something really fascinating. They have the retail version of World of Warcraft, but along side of that they released something called World of Warcraft Classic and re-released the expansion for the Burning Crusade which is really neat because I totally missed out on the Burning Crusade. That was such a good expansion, probably the best version of Warcraft. I have been playing on my Troll Hunter. So, I am doing my best to level him to 70. But I got slowed down because I am trying to level my cooking. Once again, I got stuck in Stranglethornvale. Oh well. I always end up in that zone somehow. As Alliance it is easy enough to not get stuck. But Horde has a base, Grom’Gol, right in the middle of what, for short, people call STV, for Stranglethornvale and so, at the very southern portion of the zone is Booty Bay. Between those two places you can get a lot of quests. I am pretty sure, somewhere in that zone, is content good for lvl 50. But I don’t know where it is. There is Zulu’Gurub so even at lvl 60 the player can come back eventually, to STV. In reality Classic is just a mini-game. Not sure how long it will last. But I plan to just enjoy it because there is so much to do. My Goal is to finish up STV and never go back. I was going to the Hinterlands, but now I remember I have a quest in Thunderbluff. Not sure what that could be about.

Well, that is a brief update on things. My Mom is still teaching, and Joey works at some place new, instead of JPS. He said it is closer. My Dad is driving Uber/Grubhub and my brother William is bartending at Cartel Taco. I went to Cartel Taco about a week ago. I wanted to check it out because my brother works there.

Max is just laying on the floor. All calm and quiet. I fed him his treat earlier, so that is part of it. It is a bit cold outside, so this is why he is inside. The weather was just beautiful this morning, like some good fall weather. I really liked it. I hope we get some more. Before long, Christmas will be here. I mad meant to share some of my Christmas favorites here. But I guess I could save that for next year. I need to log into to YouTube to get to them. Each year I find the same ones and listen to them.

I have not been paying attention to the politics lately. Texas now has a new hotline to report unconstitutional vaccine mandates. This is according to Governor Abbott. Speaking of the Governor, just last week we got a Christmas card from him and his family. I support Governor Abbott. He has been working hard with the guard to secure our southern border. Cannot do anything about our northern border, unfortunately. Still, I wish some of the people we knew would move here. Then it would seem ok. I could introduce them to Scott, which would be interesting for him.

Here I am writing about politics. I forgot to mention, that I applied back at Albertsons. I miss my old job as a Courtesy Clerk. I guess I am just better at that job. Hopefully, I can get back on. I would sure like to. It would be like a Christmas miracle. Well, You have a nice day. Thank you for reading my blog.
