    Oh dear. Will bloodstains wash out of the upholstery on those chairs?

    Also, I want to see the payoff for whatever is going on with the shirtless guy in the background.

      He’s cosplaying half a character from “Free!”

    Honestly I think even new readers will get the gist, if not the details.

    Does Terrence really think he has the authority to kick someone who they both acknowledge has a hotel room out of the hotel? For not wearing a badge?

    In the face of such immovable stupidity, I can see why Max decided to quietly turn the retribution dial up to 11.

      You never kick someone out of the hotel. You contact hotel staff or the police, and have them do it…

        Either of whom would laugh at Terrence for trying it for this reason. Kicking someone out of the hotel is for things like breaking the hotel’s rules, or for actual crimes.

        I wonder how many parts of what Terrence is trying to do were covered in the volunteer meeting he thought he was too good to go to? (I figure that even if he did end up going to it, he was feeling so full of himself that he wasn’t paying any attention.)

          Heck, he may have actually heard it and just assumed it didn’t apply to him since he’s staff. Terrence seems like kind of person…

An Eventful Weekend...
17 June 2025 - Traegorn
So right now I'm sitting in my living room, kind of exhausted, looking at a green chair that used to sit in my Grandmother's living room. This weekend was eventful, and I'm tired.

Crysta and I went down to Milwaukee so we could spend father's day with my parents (along with some other family members). We went to the Brewer's game on Sunday, and like any game of baseball, it was a good time. I've never been a huge sports person, but I love watching a good live baseball game.

Honestly it was an amazing day.

Before I left town on Saturday though, I swung by the local No Kings protest here in Eau Claire, and then spent a chunk of time at the local Pride celebration. I tend to be a bit of a shut in these days, so with all the awful stuff in the news it was nice to remind myself that there are good people in the world willing to stand up for what's right and for each other.

My grandmother passed away not that long ago, and one thing I had my parent set aside for me was a chair. I realize that it looks a bit more gold in the photo, but trust me when I say it's green in real life. This morning I loaded it into my pickup and drove it across the state and got it into my living room. I loved this chair as a kid, and importantly... it swivels. And when I was growing up adults would always yell at me not to spin the chair. Well guess what, it's my chair now.

And no one can stop me from spinning.

I dunno -- it was just a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. We also went out to dinner after the baseball game yesterday, but I think I'll give my full opinion on that later this week in a different blog post. Because we went to a restaurant none of us had been to before, and uh... I have thoughts.

That was vague. I'm being vague. You're just going to have to be okay with that.
