I Should Own a Bakery

A few week ago I stopped at my favorite bakery on the way to work as I had a donut fix that needed to be satisfied. Low and behold I’m pulling up, the lights are off, and there is a sign in the window that they are closed for July. “What?!?!?!” I joked to my wife that we should open a bakery.

This morning I had the same hankering for a donut, so much so I even researched other bakeries in the area. I was set, I was happy, but they were closed for most of July, too.

I believe it is a bakery conspiracy, or God just not wanting me to have a donut on a Friday in July.

And yes, I did eat my almonds. 🙁

Be Happy With the Rain – Watch and See Me Jump in a Puddle

Here’s my suggestion if the rain gets you down – Go outside and jump in a puddle, like when you were a kid. Suddenly the rain won’t seem so crappy. Let me know when you do it, and how you felt.

Look, I know a lot of folks are getting flooded lately in Illinois with all of the rain, but for a few seconds remember rain doesn’t always suck, and maybe, hopefully, when you were a kid, you jumped in a puddle and enjoyed the water just splashing around. Do it again.

Jumping in a puddle of water!

I did it this morning, jumped in a puddle of water. It was fun, and sure, it took all morning for the bottom of my pants to dry, but it was a great way to start my day, and even with the wet pants I was grinning ear to ear.

My Song in the Shower Was Great, But I Forgot It and Now You Get This Crappy One

I really need to carry a recorder in the shower, or a GoPro camera, or a waterproof case for my iPhone. Maybe put a webcam in there.

Yup, in the shower I had a great song. It was kind of country, kind of sounding like Brad Paisley but different enough that I wouldn’t get sued, and I had the whole thing in my head. I tried like hell to keep the song in my head throughout the shower, and I was really hoping to surprise my wife with it.

Then it went away. “Poof!” With every step I took every lyric went away, and on my drive to work, hard as I tried, I couldn’t recreate it.

It was no luck. Now you get this crappy song.

What Am I Going to Sing About / Last Thing in the Morning

I admit I was lax in my Songs By Andy duties yesterday as the weather was too nice so I took a walk instead of posting my song. Lucky for you, though, today you get a double blast, two songs for the post of one!

Enjoy yesterday’s song first, which my wife called “Cute”, and today’s song about, well, Milo.

I Love You. Now Let Me Waft My Stinky Fart in Your Direction.

Thank God my wife loves me.

I have to admit that it wasn’t a dutch oven, but it might as well have been as I accidentally, and I stress accidentally as this never happens, let a fart slip in bed, my wife asked me how it smelled, and I quickly lifted the covers and let the smell of roses escape in her general direction. I’m such a catch.

It Becomes About Your Butt

I turned fifty a few months ago. Yay me!

The dreaded moon river momentOf course, when you’re a guy and you turn fifty, well, your first visit to the doctor usually involves butt discussions. Sure, you might have had them as you approach fifty, but now, well, it’s time. In the words of the great Fletch (Chevy Chase), in “Fletch,” I had my “moon river” moment (my prostate was fine) and soon I will be able to tell my stories of a colonoscopy.

Ah, the little things in life to look forward to!

Big Splotch of Bird Poop

Oh, crap!

A big splatter of bird poop.Yup, there it was, maybe the biggest splatter of bird poop I have ever seen, and it happened to be on my windshield. The problem? It occurred early in the day so by the time I got to my car it was baked and seemingly glued to the windshield as well.

I have a feeling it will be there a while as I have a full tank of gas and won’t be at the gas station for days. At least the poop isn’t directly in my view!

Watermelon Instead of a Donut

My criteria for being able to get a donut today was if the light where I would turn to get to the donut shop was green.

The light was red.

And so, this morning, instead of a tasty treat of gut-bomb goodness, I got watermelon. I actually like watermelon, but I like donuts more. I suppose I should like watermelon more so I could be nice and lean, but sadly, right now, donuts win, except for this morning.

She’s Packing Up

A lot of times I need no more inspiration for a song than the last thing my wife texted to me.

As we like to tell each other when we are heading home the message can vary by situation. Yesterday she was “Packing up,” and I was happy.

It’s Wednesday, Not Monday

If you subscribed to my YouTube channel you would have received this helpful bit of information earlier today, when it mattered.
