Texts To Rob: Exciting Update!


(Don't know who Rob is? Me neither! See where the mystery began here.)

I have received the latest unexpected, misplaced text from Rob's boss. It was written with his usual abrupt style and devil-may-care attitude toward punctuation.

It read: Rob Asha are u on way. We really need to start early as really short week. I have given rob extra day off and it poured with rain so management will be an issue. Lets make this week a winner. Asha rob is now an uncle

Through the mental insertion of a comma following the name 'Asha' at the end of the text, I was able to ascertain the news regarding Rob, as declared above.

Exciting news everyone! It appears that Rob is now an Uncle!

    For a second there I thought we had learned that Rob's full name was Rob Asha and that he was in trouble because he was being referred to his full name. But yes, big congratulations to Rob who is now an uncle. I hope Asha got the hint to congratulate Rob and to not give him such a hard time about the rain over the weekend.

Night Life of Seward, Alaska

Image
If you've never experienced a night out in a small town, I highly recommend that you try it before you die. Profound graffiti in the Yukon bar bathroom Here in Seward, aside from sighting water or a mountain, the least challenging task that you could undertake would be to locate an establishment that serves beer. Following that, the next easiest task would be finding someone willing to consume beer along with you. Due to convenience, drinking often begins at the Small Boat Harbor. The harbor is where most tour boats and fishing charters depart from and return to, thus at knock-off time, employees, captains, deckhands and fishermen need only cross a single street before arriving at alcohol. At ambience-free locations such as The Breeze, patrons enjoy a drink or two, maybe a bite to eat, and then, pending their willingness to continue spending their minimum wage on beer, they begin to trickle downtown, about a mile away. Means of transportation include walking, bicycling,

An'other' Suggestion for Facebook Relationship Status

Image
I long for an 'Other' option in the Facebook drop-down menu for relationship status. And once selected, you could elaborate with a description of your own choosing: What is your relationship status?  Afraid of Commitment Waiting For Boyfriend To Text Back In Denial Trying to Annul Vegas Marriage Polygamous Engaged But With Strong Reservations Ready To Lower My Standards Forever Alone Sexting A Lot Not Sure. She Looks Pissed. Clingy In addition, each time I changed my status, things like this would come up in everyone's newsfeed: Candice went from being   Afraid of Commitment  to   Sleeping Alone Candice went from being   Ready To Lower My Standards   to   Married Candice went from being   Single & Ready to Party!!    to   Trying to Annul Vegas Marriage Candice went from being   Polygamous   to   Send Help. This Is Cult. Have Only 30secs of Inter I do not think I would ever run out of ideas for this, nor would I ever tire of trying.

Vintage Creepy Family Photo

Image
Part of my day involves searching through stock photos to go along with my blog posts. Some random things come up, but I actually heard haunting theme music when I first saw this stock 'Family' image.  Hard to pinpoint my strongest area of discomfort. Is it the Dad? He looks like he might be a mannequin that the photography studio keeps on site and wheels in when Real Dad's not around.  Maybe I'm unsettled by the piercing, serial killer-inspired gaze from the child 2nd from the left? Or his brother, 'Ted Bundy', on the far right?  I also note that the kid at the front, clearly the smallest, wears the biggest tie. Is this a deliberate joke? Eerie, since none present strike me as big pranksters. Especially not Mom. From her wistful expression, I gather that she is either  remembering back  to the last time they let her outside (1807) or  yearning for a time when the mannequin's hair wasn't styled like that . Regardless, if I'd been invit
