Thank you for the invite, Ali. Idiot Marine, grateful husband, proud father of 2. Comic guru, BBQ fanatic, good fitness, crap diet. Love one another, man.
An evening well spent.

(Just kidding, it's all made overseas.)
Coming down but nerves are high. Nothing like having been up 20 hours to then have one of those. "Don't move your head, follow my finger with your eyes."
Now a good time to tell you I got lazy eyes, pal?
Thanks doll. Love you too!
(Just got stopped at a DUI checkpoint, made it through fine but jumping jeehusophat one hell of an end to the day.)
Today was the perfect day, the absolutely perfect day, for my perfect wife to schedule my early birthday gift. Enjoying the daylights out of Weird Al live in concert. Puddles Pity Party did fantastic as the opener.
Go see Al, friends. He makes everything better.
After 3+ weeks requesting a letter from my chain of command to help me stand a chance with the next promotion board, I was told at the end of the day today (the due date) it wasn't going to happen. More or less. Gently. Just disappointed I wasn't told "no" in the first place weeks ago.

12.07.2025 17:57 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I spent 4 hours today summarizing 4 of Ennis' comics for our official reading list. Took a few hours' break, revisited, rewrote, got my points over much more clearly. 2 more to go.
Trying to finish it all tomorrow. If the job hadn't been so damn busy, I could have made this happen a week ago!
yeah! good shit, Darick!

Yes. Take my money!

Harassed by a senior officer, just a bully, for 3 months.
He leaves the unit. Reservist, no more funding for orders.
Shows up today for our fitness test. We stare through each other.
I pass him on the 3 mile run. Beat his time. My fastest run in 4 years.
Spite motivates.
Have a great con, man!

Loved the Hitman insert on the final page. During a memorial service for Steve, Garth got to meet the guy that gave Steve the idea for Dogwelder, albeit he'd conceptually mash two dogs together. "Ah, I'm so sorry for perverting your noble concept!"
That was a fantastic conversation. Good stuff, Chris.

Get fucked, Vlad.
That said $3 sounds like a steal and my 7 and almost-3-year old enjoy Spider-Gwen.

Anyone else out there going?
Held together with rows of small magnets, easy to put together and take apart. Some guys do amazing work in the field of 3D printing, relieved he didn't want it after trying it on though!
