A Bruise-colored Shirt Doesn’t Have To Hurt

A near-black blue Bugatchi shirt for a night on the town. Tie o’ the Day #2 is one more selection from my collection of Stacy Adams neckwear. These particular tie colors are radiant together. And not just cuz of the camera flash reflection. 😀

At The Pub this evening, there was a table o’ strangers sitting near “our” table when I walked in. I did my thing as per usual. Plugged in “our window” lights. Turned on the tv we bought for ourselves. Walked behind the bar and got my purple paw print cup from the cupboard. Filled it with ice and Diet Coke. Grabbed a straw. Walked back to our table and sat down. The strangers sitting at the nearby table had watched my whole routine, it appeared. I gave ’em the yup-I’m-a-regular glance, and they gave me the table-o-raised-glasses salute.

See. You can look just about anywhere and successfully find a reason to keep on keepin’ on.😊

Back On Our Tumbleweed Ranch

Tie o’ the Day #1 is a deathly Penguin. And polo shirt is a heady Old Navy piece. I was never a fan of Guns n Roses. Perhaps if the band had been named Skulls n Roses I would have been more into them. But as far as fashion goes, skulls are like polka dots: They jazz up anything and everything. They will redeem even the most ill-advised outfit. It’s just a bigly fact.

Speaking of skulls…..Back in the heyday of The X Files, on FOX, my spritely Devon confused the main characters’ names for years. Scully and Mulder were always Mully and Sculder. And did I tell you he did it for years? It might have been a bone thing he had going on cuz he also couldn’t pronounce the word “skeleton”. He pronounced it “stelekon”. He’s going to be 32 in mid-April, and I’m pleased to say that his pronunciation confusions are no longer confused.

Devon is a high-end  landscape architect, based in Dallas. Right now, however, he is living in Italy, where he is working on a project. The man is living in a vineyard, no less. I am so very proud of him. I have missed him every minute of every day for the past 17 years. But that is a whole “nuther” story.
