Well, it was a pleasant enough day to put a couple hundred miles on the ol ‘burb while taking care of some issues at one of my remote offices.

 

Back home now with a sip of bourbon and it’s about time to get the kids to bed.

Had almost the same tonight, except I will have some more of that cheesecake that I had earlier.

 

Anyhow it was not Kobe, so not total sacrilege. Man tonight's still had some pink but wasn't med-rare like last nights in the above picture. 

 

Pimento cheese in an 8oz container cost more???

Gotta get some food

I'm so hungry all the time

I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

Gotta get some sleep

I'm so nervous in the night

But I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

I got to pick up the phone

I will call any number

I will talk to anyone

I know I'm gone too far

Much too far I gone this time

Don't want to think what I've done

'Cause I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

There are always hidden silences

Waiting behind the chair

They come out when the coast is clear

They eat anything that moves

I go shaky at the knees

Lights go out, stars come down

Like a swarm of bees

No self-control

No self-control

No self-control

No self-control

No self-control (no self-control)

No self-control (no self-control)

No self-control (no self- no-)

You know I hate to hurt you

I hate to see your pain

But I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

Street after street

Night after night

I walk on through the rain

I walk on through the rain

I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

No, I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

Hey, I don't know how to stop

I don't know how to stop

Took wife's car in for oil change...

Rear brakes, critical

Front brakes, borderline

 

That puts a big dent in the budget. Got the used car last year, not sure where all the maintenance and wear was when we got it. Wife went from two smaller, lighter cars to her Nissan Rogue. She tends to drive right up to cars at a traffic light... and push on the brakes. I told her that she could let off on the gas when approaching the red light. I think she will start doing better now.

THAT just baffles me to no end.  WHY do people do that?  My oldest daughter drives me insane when I ride with her  They even do it when they're on a 4-lane!  Road signs are there for a reason.  The last one that says exit is usually 1/4 mile from the actual exit.  I get off the fuel then and just let it roll to the exit, apply minimal brakes at the stop sign to get off.  Heck you're barely touching them then.  THEN they whine about driving like an old man.  Seriously?  YOU can write the checks but I'm not.  Crazy schiit!  If ya get lucky you can even replace the rotors since ya can't turn them down today.  They gotcha!   😂

I used to go about 60,000 miles in a set of pads on my Ranger.

Once I got married and Heather was driving, it needed new pads every 10,000 miles.
