It’s been an interesting day. Got to sleep in and then started working on the humidor. Then took a break to take my daughter to have her senior portrait taken. Sigh, the slow transition every parent has had to go through. And tonight her boyfriend is over to watch soccer. He asked if he could come over at watch the game with me so we could get to know each other better. Kudos for him for reaching out, but…. Anyway he brought over a bag of Cheetos so that would explain the photo in the what are you eating thread.

Well, the tropical storm blew through here this morning. All of about 30 seconds of rain, but it did make the air smell nice. And thus my soap pick for today.

Had enough frustration at work yesterday that I got my wife to take my daughter to drum lessons so I could take my boss in to meet with the COO. I'm glad I did because they are both headed in the same direction, just one is on a faster track than the other. Nice pour of scotch when I got home. No cigar because it's uncomfortably warm so I didn't want to shut the door to the deck. Dave, it doesn't matter what the temperature was, I said it was uncomfortable.
BUT, this might lead to me making the lower deck more functional. I should have done it years ago, but after recording our show there because of wind on the upper deck, I realized there are many days I could be outside there that up above is too windy, or hot, or whatever.

Yesterday was interesting. The whole work day was a leadership retreat at my boss’ house. Just 4 of us sitting around her kitchen island all day. Today was supposed to start with a spiffy new haircut. I rolled in there to find out there were 3 folks in front of me because one of the guys was on vacation. Ain’t nobody got time to wait around for that, so I’ll try again tomorrow.
Got the humidor all up and running so I just have to wait for the humidity to get up to where it needs to hang out so I can move the sticks over. Tonight we’re going to wrap up the day with dinner and drinks at a jazz club in the city listening to a vocalist. Never done anything like this but I need to keep the boujie experiences coming for Steven.

You earned bougie status in this post with the comment about not having time to wait for a haircut. You then proceeded to triple bougie the rest of the post. Maybe you should restrict yourself to one bougie per paragraph (per post would be out of the question).

I've just about had it with home issues. We had that valve leak that I was able to repair. Okay, no permanent damage, and it gave me a sense of accomplishment. Now the tenant has a leak from under his toilet that also happens a little when the shower is running. If I owned the place, I would take up the toilet, snake the drain a bit, and see if I could get the shower draining cleanly. But I don't so we have to arrange with a plumber and the tenant to get it looked at. And this tenant isn't touching jack squat to try to figure things out. Then this morning I found there was mold behind another toilet, and it looked like water had been seeping into a window casing and down a wall also causing some water damage in a closet. Again, we're obviously not paying to get this stuff fixed, but the owner is out of the country so still have to take time off work to deal with it. Frickin' frackin'
