Purty good...

Thursday, left work early for check-up with the doc. Still no invite to the heart attack club, and doc says he'd like to see me up my drinking/smoking/gambling/whoring/indiscriminate killing quotient by at least 10 points. The blood work confirmed I was a few gallons short of the blood of my vanquished enemies for this visit. I'll work on that, of course. Went home, ate something I don't remember, drank beers and watched draft.

Friday, slept in, got up and drank coffee, walked pup, then mowed grass/leaves/sticks for the first time all year. Used the push mower...or as I like to call it, the pushhog and chopped up anything that stood between me and the ground. Worked straight through until almost 7 pm. Ate something I don't remember, drank beers, and watched The Highwaymen on Netflix.

Saturday, resumed pushhogging from about 9 am til just after noon. Cleaned up, ran several errands including stopping by O'Darby's and scooping up a mixed case of close-out beer deals. Got home and walked pup, then headed out to the original Taco Truck, which has moved back to Rock Hill from Indian Land. Had a couple of sopes asada and I had forgotten that the red salsa they offer is like 'Satan sticking his finger in your anus' hot. Left there for the Whitewater Center to see Tyler Childers. 'Twas crowded beyond any hope of getting a decent place to squat, I could hear just fine but barely see the stage. Horrible traffic getting in far too many young drunks whose aim was to be seen and heard and not there to appreciate the music...I think I'm done with Tuckfest going forward. Still, good show, got out quick and home to bed.

Sunday, all of the chores I ignored all weekend got done in the morning, including the installation of a new flagpole on the front of the house. I need to get a Natty flag, but the skull and crossbones will suffice for now. Grocery run, back home to give the pup a bath and a nice long walk to dry off, then back to the house to reverse sear some thick steaks in the cast iron with twice-baked taters and multiple beers. Laid around in a meat coma until bed because there really wasn't anything worth watching on TV.

10/10 productivity, 7/10 fun, LOL/10 Clemson baseball.

SheGUAR was pretty involved w/ Greenville Fashion Week (GFW), which went from Wed - Sat this past week. Usually, I stay way clear of these things, but she was in it last year and it looked pretty cool, and wanted me to go this year...and plus, hanging out with a bunch of models isn't the worst way to spend a couple nights...

Thursday night was the 'premier party' (even though it was the 2nd night of events) at Zen downtown G'ville....was cool for an hour, and then it was just semi-meh....saved by the Open Bar, tho....got drunk, ninja attempts were made for the paid subscribers of WSB. Success of said ninjas is debatable

Friday, went into work again on yet another 'off' day...bad habit, kids. Didn't get anything done, so that was pointless.

Saturday...neighborhood garage sale that we weren't prepared for due to hectic schedule and sick kids last week....set alarm for 6, snoozed til 7 when i turned it all the way off, eventually got up at 8 and moved some crap into the driveway...was a poor showing, probably my fault....packed it all up and went to LilGUAR#2's last soccer game of the spring...quick poke bowl lunch, then get ready for more Fashion Week things...SheGUAR had her own obligations and schedule, so I met up w/ frand and his lady-frand for some pregame @ his apt downtown (Moscow Mule), then to Nosedive for beers ((2) Pernicious IPAs) and food....then down to the Courtyard by Marriott courtyard for the GFW stuff....started out w/ some tequila concoction, winner of the cocktail contest they'd had for the even earlier in the week. Was not good, so moved on to Maker's & Ginger and had 2 of those before the show started.

Show starts w/ 20 chicks in bikinis. NICE. "Ninjas" - are they really ninjas if everyone's taking pigs? - provided for paid subscribers of WSB. Then the power goes out...was running the whole thang off a generator, later find out it's been tampered with by 'competitors'. While they truck another one in, we return to frand's place around the corner and have another 2 Moscow Mules, and head back as 2nd genny is being hooked up....Grab another Maker's & Ginger before taking seats (that one was probably a mistake)...finish out the show with no further incidents. Was actually a good bit more fun than I thought it'd be...hung out out there for a while after, pics & mingling & whatnot, then SheGUAR/I/frand/ladyfrand went back to Nosedive, had one more Pernicious IPA. NOT 100% sure I if I had a drink between the 'mistake' Maker's and that beer or not...turns out a good portion of Sat night is fairly 'blurry'

Sunday. Woke up at 10:10am, not feeling horrible, but def aware that it was going to be me + the couch all #### day, and it was minus going back downtown to get my car, and then later on messican (and a big Dos Equis) for dinner. GoT to end the night
