    It's always fun when you are visiting family and an argument over nothing erupts.

    You and I have different definitions of the word fun.

    We could argue about though, that might be fun.

    If there is an extinction level meteor coming and getting to a secret military underground bunker is the only hope of survival for you and your family and you actually get the there despite all odds, then your wife will forgive your infidelity. But that is the only pathway to reconciliation.

    Pretty sure I nailed the moral of that story.

    Right, that’s why “family” for me moving forward is chosen. In my case, it’ll be roughly a 50/50 breakdown of people I’m actually related to and then friends whom I trust and love that deeply. But not all “family” are relatives for me anymore, and not all relatives are family.

    On Friday our son graduated from VaTech. A great day and accomplishment for a fine young man.

    Yesterday, I shaved my beard(!), clambered into my uniform for the first time in 10+ years, and commissioned him a 2ndLt in the USMC. The uniform was a "dad prank" - as only my bride knew of my intention. The rest of the family was totally unprepared - and the prankster in me was appropriately rewarded.

    My sincere worries that I'd be making his day about me proved unfounded. And our family has photos that could never have been achieved in any other way.

    ..headed out for a 50 minute jog and to see if the Virginia sunshine can dry my wet cheeks.

    I do not recommend DIY expressing your dog’s glands.

    You support their right to self expression?

    Dogs don’t have thumbs, CD. At least not in 2021.

    Do you know if that's the problem or if they just don't do it themselves because you do it for them and they never have to take responsibility? I'm not a dog owner, so I don't know the answer to this. I'm just wondering.

    Wait. So I make the obvious gas joke about one of your posts and you demure, but then you take the same opportunity and we are supposed to celebrate this?
