If so, hello and welcome!
You may be a little confused ... yeah, it's like jumping straight into the middle of Season 2 of some crappy soap opera. Sorry about that.
Honestly, the only reason why this is a public blog is because I liked the name "unpoking the bear", and I got tired of managing permissions on my old blog.
I'm working on a post that summarizes my situation, but it's getting kinda long, so I'm gonna save that for a weekend post.
In the meantime, the crappy reductionist Interwebz clickbait headline goes something like this : "my journey from dysfunctional fatass to functional badass".
My Tuesday thoughts ...
"Please don't rain until after dark ... please don't rain until after dark ..."
Why, you ask? This!!!
Chocolate, Part 1
I was hanging with one of my nephews a little while ago, and he joined me on my Saturday run - he on his bike, me on my feet. After, he asked me if he could go to the store.
"What do you want to get?"
"Some Kinder eggs"
<spidey-sense goes off>
"How many Kinder eggs?"
"20"
<kaboom! ... spidey-sense blow-out>
I manage to talk him down to 5. I am, after all, a *fun* uncle.
As we headed over to the store, I started thinking... "Instead of spending $20 plus tax on Kinder eggs, he could spend $2 for a big sack of sugar - and get way more sugar high for his money - and then have $18 to spend on whatever he wants""
Like I said, food for thought.
