Josephine's Halloween Costume
Called and talked to my Josie to wish her a Happy Halloween and to see if she got the spooky package Jen sent.
I hadn’t yet got a picture from her mom of what she was so I had to ask her.
Joise was a Rio De Janeiro Carnival Parade Dancer.
Specifically. A. Rio. De. Janeiro. Carnival. Parade. Dancer.
She’s 6. God help me.

Opportunites with @Manspeaker
I talked to the director of Let’s Help, a local Food/Clothing bank for less fortunate in the Topeka area about our group @SilverbackKS volunteering there and was asked about being a board member.
It’s getting to the point where I don’t have to scream and kick down doors to try and get an opportunity. Those same doors are being opened for me as walk up to them.

Tattoos
Yesterday’s train home the Conductor and I got on the topic of them and about how both of us want to get more and he mentioned an elbow tat. Elbow tats are always a spider web or star and I never really felt it. But he said something that got my attention and an idea popped into my head just like all of my other tattoos and it’s all I thought about the rest of the ride to KC.
Now I...

Home. Tired. Molested.
The past few days TSA agents felt my nuts more than Jennifer has. I was told a few years ago that I share the same name as a IRA bomber and that I had to prove I’m not him. I flew a lot in and out of Chicago to see my daughter and I got tired of being treated like a criminal, contacted the TSA and they asked me to provide more info for future flights. I did and suddenly I could breeze thru...

Seriously.
The county said they weren’t going to prosecute misdemeanors anymore because they can’t afford to. That left the city to handle them. They say they can’t afford to prosecute them either, so they’re just going to get rid of the city code that says you can’t assault your partner.
I’m not even going to get into the fact that domestic violence is only...
A Conversation
Bridge Road Workers: “The road going over the overpass will have X amount of pitch at X degrees with X amount of thickness.”
Pavement Road Workers: “Fuck that.”
the reason why every pavement to bridge and bridge to pavement transition bounces my spine out of fucking whack.

A heck of a lot more people were donating money and dropping off food at Occupy KC. I went as a hopeful observer/participant. The community was really good. Conversations with people, all walks of life. Many homeless. Many passionate about politics. But they need you to be with them. Your money…
