Apparently they kept saying “cousin shot time!” and she fell for the peer pressure. Nobody had ever called her a cousin before.

At this wedding, my aunt who brutally despises her ex husband walked down the aisle together for their son. If that’s not love I don’t know what is.

She said “you can put up with anything for 45 seconds. Trust me.” Sounds like good general life advice to me.

I’m reading Ulysses S. Grant’s memoir and I’m walking downtown Covington, Ky and see this!? The world is such a wonderful and small place.

He had a bad horse on the way from Maysville, Ky. He kept getting bucked off so much that his traveling companion left him. He blinded the horse to get it under control and when he showed up two days later his companion couldn’t believe he made it.

I’m freaking out on time to get to my cousin’s wedding and she goes “it’s 30 minutes later than I told you because you can’t get anywhere on time?”

Son and I are walking a couple miles playing me and my great-grandmother’s favourite game: find change. He’s up 5 cents and a baseball to zero.

He won the walk so like a bad loser I extended the game through the end of the day.

That’s like cool I guess but my $100 Seiko is solar and doesn’t need a self winding pistol to keep telling time.
The $345,000 Hublot LaFerrari watch can run for 50 days on a full wind. To make winding quick and effortless, Hublot designed a unique ‘self-winding pistol’ that comes with the watch.

My wife’s two deputies, our first hires. Promoted to roles they probably wouldn’t have qualified for based on experience but absolutely crushing. My wife for trying a venture outside her comfort zone. My brother for accomplishing his Cambridge doctorate dream. My cousin for becoming a homeowner in her 20s. Another cousin for getting into medical school.
Who is the person in your life you are most proud of?

After speaking with my wife, if we win mega millions tonight we will not be buying a plane. $110MM just isn’t enough. Jet card maybe, but the engine overhauls are pricey.

Best gas station bathrooms award goes to Love’s. Followed by Buc-ee’s then Racetrac. In last place is a tie between any Weigel’s and an Indian-owned Shell/Exxon.

A trio of 1st experiences this morning: in a police office to collect a police report where my son is named as Victim 3. From an incident when he was at school. I was a big public school believer but my naive belief got my son hurt. So I pulled in every favor to correct my mistake.

Cop at the desk asked me for the case number. I didn’t have it with me but I offered it from memory. A string of nine unrelated numbers. That was odd.

I left WV last weekend without my kids. Whole week without them and it’s been awesome/terrible. I know they’ve had a wonderful time with their grandparents and loved ones - and for my son it was a challenge he didn’t think he could accomplish. But I can’t wait to pick them up tomorrow and squeeze them so tight.

I watched my son’s steps on his iWatch. One grandmother made him put up 18k steps!
