James McLachlan

30 years, 3 states, 5 jobs, two grown sons, a world of experiences. What a ride it has been with one of the best people I have ever known. I feel so grateful to have found my person when I did.

Made the mistake of starting real play and now I am going to be a zombie tomorrow. So so good already.

It was...not good.

I have done this recently as a 54 year old.

Stares in New Orleans Saints.

That's cool. My dad has a vintage Vacheron Constantin that I hoping wills to me. I also love the Laco pilot watches (approx $400). For Swiss watches Tissot makes amazing reasonably affordable pieces (more than you want to spend but amazing). I love automatic watches so that is my bias.

I have coveting these watches for years but they are beyond my reach. I bought this a few years ago and love it and in your price range. Great place to start. www.orientwatchusa.com/collections/...

Can we add airplanes to that list?

One of the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen.

Oh crap. Do I need to start glittering my grails already?

Awesome! Sadly the bar and restaurant closed in 2018. Sazerac is my go to cocktail here and there are so many good ones. Cure or Clancy's still probably my faves.

Sazerac. Bartenders choice on the rye.

I think people underestimate how truly great professional athletes are at their given sport. I worked at a driving range for a bit and the number of guys who thought they could make the tour was hilarious. The hand eye coordination of these athletes is insane.

With so much bad shit going on in the world right now, it was a true pleasure to ride in the New Orleans Pride parade today with good friends. What joy and happiness and a true sense of community and love. It gave me some fuel for hope.

When you are not a fan of thunder in a city where there is a lot of thunder in the summer.

Watching the Andor season 2 finale and immediately rolling into Rogue One makes that ending really hit that much harder. I will miss you C-c-c-cassian.

I love video games. I am on my 4th play though of Days Gone (remastered) and I am still so sad that this game did not get the attention I think it deserved. This is a truly great game. I am also sad there will be no part 2. Also Sarah rocks.

Was about to come here to say this. My wife and I navigated across half the country with these and it was awesome.

I understand this reference.

This is the hero we all wish to be.

June is hot but New Orleans (my adopted hometown) is one of the great cities in the US. That time of year the food should be amazing and cheaper. We would love to have you!

My younger son is writing his senior college thesis on corvid (crows, ravens, jays) co-evolutionary adaptation living among humans and how they can use human infrastructure to survive in the environment better. He has taught me just how cool crows are. This is a fascinating study.

My super smart CPA wife told me this just yesterday.

High on my list of pet peeves. Couple of these in my neighborhood and my dog always gets more agitated when it happens. If you can't control your dog immediately then bad things can ensue.

I am still bummed there will never be a Days Gone 2. I really love this game.
