Jamming on some J5 and eating a Hansen's Snowbliz coffee flavor (which is coffee). Hansens is the shit. Before there were shaved ice, snoballs, snow cones or frozen daiquiris, there was Hansens. They invented that shit and don't use some fake ass internet bought syrup. They are the fucking kings.
I know Facebook friend #1 from strategizing ahead of last year's Bernie DNC delegate caucuses, and met her once at last year's state Dem convention at a meeting for that purpose. I've known Facebook friend #2 for pushing 25 years, going back to junior high band class and wound up being his best man a decade ago.
I saw Friend #1 post on Friend #2's wall today. Meme with a guy attempting the lumberjack look, captioned something like "when you hear Bon Iver for the first time." I left a comment like "you should have seen him during peak Third Wave ska," and Friend #1 replies that he makes her listen to lots of it on their work playlist. I knew I knew both of them, but didn't realize they're coworkers up in Green Bay.
At this point, it goes into private messages with Friend #1. I ask her if my boy has ever played his ska-punk band demo from the late 90s with him on vocals. She says he's never even mentioned it. A conspiracy was born. I grabbed the CD from my archives, burn it and upload it, and she had herself a copy within the hour.
My boy is in for a surprise addition to the work playlist tomorrow. I'm such a giggling asshole right about now.

Hansen's is so good. When I was a teenager I worked at a snowball stand in Algiers, Cajun Cowboys. We made the syrup from scratch as well. It is really fucking easy to make and it makes me mad when they buy it pre-made. Van's snowball has two locations in Algiers and they still make the syrup from scratch as well. But it isn't just the syrup that makes a badass snowball, you have to have the right ice fineness/consistency and that is no easy feat.

Ya, I've been keeping a close eye out for rattlesnakes on my walks. It's been warm these past few weeks, I know they're up and about.
Yeah, I have a healthy fear for the Rattlesnake as well. But, still, they're not as bad as water moccasins or copperheads. Those bastards will chase ya.

Agree on the moccasins down there. I was part of a crew that rehabbed an old railroad line between Houston and Victoria a few years back. I carried a S&W 380 6 shooter w/ mini shotgun shells. As I would head to old rail bridges that had been forgotten for 40 years I would on the regular get chased by those ugly bastards. And I would smite each and everyone of them.
The rattlesnakes were huge compared to up north but fairly docile. I kicked a 6 footer off a rail bed with no issue. One of our supers used a spud bar to send an 8 footer to heaven...ahh the south where the wildlife all wants you dead.

I accidentally left a Tupperware container in my car all day from lunch yesterday that still had a few scallops in it. My whole car now smells the way the ER did when a run of Trich hit the city. Jesus.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

The worst thing I've ever smelled was when we had to drain a football player's staph infected elbow into a garbage can in the training room.
This seems MUCH worse and I hope your car airs out quickly.
Y'all think THAT is stinky, one time me and the boys all pooped in an rotten egg bucket then threw it all roun the den and lanced our juicy boils with expire meat knifes wooooo weeee it was smell

I went shopping one time and knew I bought ground turkey, but when I unloaded my car, I could not find it anywhere. I kind of forgot about it. I wish it forgot about me, but it didn't...about a week later my car stunk so bad I wanted to get rid of it. I tried everything, coffee beans under the seats for months, washing/vacuuming out the inside. NOTHING got rid of the smell for a long time. It was horrible. I had a watermelon disintegrate in that vehicle also...I really must have secretly hated that van even if I thought I loved it.
I hope you luck is better than mine. The coffee beans under the seat was the best hack that made the stink bearable, if you need a fix.

I don't know if any of my fellow northeast peoples follow Dan Smalls on the social medias but it's looking like he's putting together some sort of festival in Ithaca on September 22 & 23. Official announcement is Monday.
He books all of the Ommegang concert series every summer as well as shows from Buffalo to Albany. He's based in Ithaca and constantly making me jealous of all the sweet bookings he gets (because Albany doesn't get much).
This has probably been discussed a number of times, so please redirect me if necessary.
I'm taking a trip with my lady and my family. We're leaving tomorrow for Ireland and I've been told a number of times how anxious she gets while flying. Can anyone give me any tips to help keep her calm or at least recommend things for her to bring to distract her mind? I'm one of those weird people who gets an adrenaline rush from turbulence, so I'm just looking for a different perspective.

Valium or Xanax. I hate flying that is the only thing that works for me. I get serious anxiety and every little thing freaks me out. My doctor usually will prescribe me a small script for one or the other. Idk how your girl is but there is NO distraction in the world that could make me forget that I am on a plane. And going to Ireland that is one long ass plane ride. I would recommend her calling her doctor.

Given you are leaving tomorrow, I doubt you will be able to get Valium or Xanax, which would be the most helpful, although some MD's get it and if you called right now they may let you come and pick up an RX for like 2 pills. OTC, I would recommend Bonine, or the generic name is meclizine. Benadryl will work in a pinch, but if she gets the chewable 25mg meclizine, I think she will find it soothing. I take it when I have a milder panic attack and it works better than Benadryl for anxiety, in my opinion.

Getting back onto a running schedule has kicked my ass. I ran 4 days this week, and a different 2 days I coached an after school running program. I laid down for a nap this evening but it didn't go so well. I'm too sore to get comfortable. Ain't nothin' vodka can't fix on this Friday night.
