I wouldn’t recommend flying. It doesn’t seem natural.

The whole time I was white knuckle, praying for that drink cart. Jesus.

I have flown many times, but not for like 15 years. I am substantially more neurotic now.

Anyway, I am back in SoDak for my nephew’s graduation. I shook his hand and gave him a stack of money.

What are uncles for?

He went off with his buddies and we parents and adults and relatives went to the VFW and got all lit up. The picture is the side of the Custer, SoDak VFW. Quite nice. The VFWs I have been too recently are little more than garages or warehouses. I’m all, if you took these stupid tables out, I could totally park my truck in here.

I have to fly back. I think I’m gonna drink even more before I get “on” the plane.

Fuck you, I’m getting IN the plane.

I gave my name as Moses at a crowded Starbucks the other day.

I then stood way in the back of everybody and waited. After the third time Moses was called out, I raised my hand and said “here”. As I walked to the counter the crowd parted like the Dead Sea.

LOL.

I know, it’s the Red Sea–but this was a Starbucks!

A blogged midlife crisis.

First he lost his mind over a Pepsi and went into the nut hut. Then he sold everything and went to Alaska.

Now he’s sitting at a picnic table, covered in mosquito bites, and drunk on vodka.

So, like, a 4% improvement.

Right on.

Currently experiencing major empty nest syndrome/mid-life crisis.

My friend was all telling me, but I was in denial. “Fuckin’ A” he said. “It’s so obvious. You’re having a mid-life crisis.”

Is it?

Maybe it is. “Crisis” seems like a strong word.

So what. When people turn 21 don’t they go out and get drunk?

LOL.
