I Have A Little OCD Going On
I know this may seen odd, and I promise to post a whole entry about this, but my OCD has many different facets. Smells being one. I am very weird about smells and I love having good smells around me. I have, at just a quick mental count, a combination of 7-8 different body sprays and colognes and scented oil. Something about smells can bring you back to a familiar time and place. Now this may not be unique to just me, it does make me make mental note every time it happens.
Like just now on the elevator.
I am on my way to court as I step on the elevator. Before the doors even have a chance to close behind me I am taken back to a time about 12-15 years ago (egads that hurt just to write) when I was managing the Cockatoo Gentleman’s Club in Yankton South Dakota. To some, it may have made them wrinkle their nose and maybe even make a comment; but to me it was a smell of a very wild time in my life;
The multi-layering of women’s cologne.
Now I know my good friend Drew will totally and undeniably understand where I am coming from on this. You get your first little whiff as you enter the club. I gentle menagerie of subtle fragrances and sprays; a little White Diamonds here, some Beautiful there, and a dab of Vanilla which I think is somehow mandatory for at least one woman to cake on like its frosting. But once you enter the sanctuary that is *wait for it………..* the dressing room, this is when the full effect of lotions and sprays and oils and such seep into you. For you ladies, it’s the smell you smell on your man when he comes home and says he was “out with the guys” for a few beers. It inevitably can bring on that little “dirty” side in someone.
Also, here is today’s picture…..this was taken from almost the furthest point away…..then you have to walk all the way and my suite is on the 3rd floor.
Yeah; don’t even get me started….

The Grill Diaries - Day 2
Well, I am at day 2 with the grill and I love it! Tonight was Rib eye's and Johnsonville Brats!
My dad went it for gastric bypass surgery today. My step mother called to say he was in great spirits coming out of the anesthesia. He joked with one of the nurses saying "so, am I thin yet?"
Snow White rehearsals are still going well, we open in a few weeks.
A HUGE thank you by the by to SSS for scoring me the VERY hard to get Disc 2 from Tesla called Real to Reel! Tons of Great covers on this one to accompany the first Disc.
ok everyone....you are more or less caught up for a Monday.....be well!

Cat On A Hot Tin Roof...?
So tonight was the devirginizing of the new grill that Casa de Lucas has acquired. In attendance were the Lucas' (naturally), the ever-monkey funny Drunk Monkey and the better half of the Mr & Mrs Smith couple, Shaleen.
I started with just a simple, thin cut tri tip steak. I used some Jack Daniels Old Number 7
Original recipe BBQ sauce. Added about 5 generous drops of Tobasco
then some various spices
The grill heated very quickly and I decided to only use the middle 2 (of 4 total) grilling spots. Mrs. Smith and Ashley like 'em charred and The Drunk Monkey and I like 'em moo-ing a little, so that is how I split up the flames.
Threw on 4 ears of corn, husk and all and voila! It was a great deflowering!
The picture is of the neighbor cat, Otis. As I was starting to put the grill away and clean it, I noticed a meowing from roof of the house!! He must have crawled up the tree and went exploring. After getting the ladder and getting him down, I decided to take a picture of him guarding his Master's drive way.....
Thanks SSS and AMT for coming over....we love ya....when is the cruise to Alaska!!?

The Grill Team...
....what a great time we had putting this sucker together today. Thank God the Smiths' showed up just as we were starting otherwise I am pretty sure 1) Ash and I would still be putting it together and 2) one of us would have killed the other by now!

Zebra......
Open letter to....
YOU ARE UNFIT, UNKEMPT, PATHETIC EXCUSES FOR HUMAN BEINGS! But let me tell you why….
I admit, I do not know all the sordid, sorry bits of what I can only assume is your checkered past, but what I saw you do today was deplorable. Thankfully your older (perhaps 5 or so) grandson had his wits about him, but how do you let that poor little younger girl (maybe 3?) scream in such sadness and sorrow?? All she wanted was for you to buy her something! That is all…..and knowing little girls that age, if you would have bought her a little lollypop or soda (like you did for the grandson) I wouldn’t have to give you or this subject a second of my time (my time in which you are SO not even close to being worthy of). How, let me say again, JUST F***CKING, HOW do you let that child be that distraught? Did she “deserve” it for some maladaptive behavior? No. What can a little 3 year old girl do, that would make you not give her just the slightest of attention, when you found it totally justified to buy you, your greasy f**** as a husband, and the son (who I understand is totally an innocent bystander in this)
You are so incredibly lucky that I felt that my position in work would hinder any proceedings of law. But I so very much assure you that I will be checking to see just what IS my right as a worker for the County of Sacramento and more; a strong-willed, sensible, caring of most of God’s creatures human F-ing being! Human being. That is a term that perhaps you should look up. Oh wait, that’s right….that would actually mean you would have to do something other than sit on your fat lazy stank ASS…..
May God have mercy on your soul………..
(yes, as I said, I don’t know all the circumstances in their lives. But it does not take a rocket scientist to understand that when a child is exemplifying that behavior, you need to take control.)
Hope my day gets better…….Mom, Dad, Ken, Cathy….I thank God daily for how well you raised me……………..

Thank you Matt!....
...for taking my hookah cherry!! We smoked this odd combination of peach and vanilla tobacco which is really not so much as tobacco as filler....the smoke is cool temperature wise and not like a cigar or cigarette smoke in any way
