In the background, I’m listening to the New Kids on the Block doing their best to make a comeback. I don’t deny old people trying to make a comeback as I’m attempting to do right now, but at least they need to rebrand and call themselves Older Dudes on the Clock or something. One thing that will certainly almost never change is the weekly Bitter Friday Giftures delivered on the page. If I die on a Friday in 30 years from now, I hope I make sure I do my giftures before I breathe my last breath. And I have tasked my daughter to take over when I no longer can, so look forward to these things forever.
I guess I’ve learned…
…a lot.
Not everyone…
…can be a Captain.
Even Hallmark…
…doesn’t think I have any potential as a writer.
People wonder what is going on up there…
…this is pretty much it.
This might also be…
…an accurate depiction.
Something I do…
…over and over again.
Just when I think I’ve defeated it…
…gravity reigns supreme.
I’ve always found this is a fun way…
…to clear a path through sheep.
The key to life is balance…
…this guy lost the key.
It’s nice when ladders do their jobs…
…of helping you get down quickly.
This guy is working on his…
…best dunk for the Slam Dunk contest.
Just like me, this guy was doing so well…
…until the very end.
And just like every blog, I start strong and then fade at the end. So learn your lesson from me and the Old Dude on the Clock. Just quit when you are ahead.
ARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH

If QVC does have good insurance though, I would be glad to work for them, because I need some of that.

My gifs are responsible for that. I just steal the laughs from other people.

That sounds gross. I guess if you were one of those people that stole packages from that one guy you would have quite enjoyed all the glitter that shot out of the package.

The like button works for everyone else, so I assume the problem is with your internet or your WordPress account. As you should know by now, nothing is ever my fault even when it isn’t. Also the only reason I ever buy glitter is to annoy other people.

Friday giftures in perpetuity, is that a threat or a promise? I think the Homer cartoon sums it up best, eventually we all fall victim to a fatal error. 🙂

I think that some of us have already fallen victim to a fatal error. Just because my brain is always sabotaging me.
