I love my hula girl, Bim! I've had one in each of my two recent cars. I won't end up in Georgia heading south but I go pretty darn far. I don't live far from I 57 which reads "Memphis" by my house. Even though that's a good 7 hour drive or so.

Vy kewl Pic, Rubester!
Lotsa 'nice' Graffiti on Euro Train Cars, and Underpasses. I especially like your Hula Girl composition!
Plus, Pix like that one sort out the Easily Confused. Hee hee...
OK, off to view Graffiti on Train Cars. A major Train Track runs adjacent to the Dog Park, and makes for easy Geek amusement.
BBL...

There's a raised train track that runs over the river downtown where we take the dogs. I got a really nice graffiti shot there once - "Fart" in HUGE elaborately done letters across the side of one train car

I won't say I felt like running to the store or anything but I'm looking forward to not feeling those in the evening at some point. My "witching hour" is between 6-8am. Gotta plan smartly for those hours for a while.

SegCurly... That's a good idea. Keep busy. Change up the schedule and routine.
In other news.... The cranial Brazilian day two stubble acts like Velcro when trying to put on a tshirt. I was laughing at myself so hard when I got stuck. I am pretty sure the cats enjoyed it.

I'm on a forced break. I went for the excavation and resetting the paver guides. I was on my last 10 inch nail - they actually don't make nine inch nails. And kablowy! Framing hammer glancing blow to spike and smashed my thumb between the pavement and - HAMMER. Blood actually squirted. I've smashed fingers before but this is the first time I had a blood shot. It's gonna hurt later.
I have a hula girl right here. she is sleeping at the moment.
Something I was talking about last week, in all my years I have never seen anyone painting graffiti. It was an overpass done intricately.
I've spent a lot of time in cities. Never saw graffiti being created.
Scroll right. Right.
Here's one for Southside Ruby. And no, those boots aren't for sale.

Ow! You ok LBRAIN? Make sure you get it cleaned up properly. Important things fingers.
Saw the end of an interview with Ian Hunter the other day - he's 75 but looking quite well and talked about touring. There's hope for all of us.
3am till 5am is the time most self respecting graffiti artists ply their trade

I am south south and no, most of it isn't gentrified although my neighborhood is fine. Tons of city workers, bankers, lawyers, etc.
Hula girl is an air freshener I bought in the auto section in Target. She's awesome and easy to find.
I'm at my nephew's party. Should probably socialize.

Stuck to my plan. Healthy breakfast. Worked on all my cars. Did a ridiculous detail job on my wife's car. She walked outside, looked, walked inside and gave me a big kiss and hug. Boom!
Messed with my vegetable garden even though it didn't really need it. Cleaned my house with the kids. Called my mom and sister to catch up just cuz (I normally wait for them to call me).
Now I'm in an empty house, exhausted, and approaching my "witching hour". I feel pretty strong which is good because I wasn't so sure starting the day. Time to play my guitar REALLY LOUD until someone comes home.
Only 6 hours left in day 6...

Well, I just had a pretty bad craving. AV was trying to tell me to get smashed today and blow off my responsibilities. not going to happen.
This is day 3, and i haven't had more than 3 day of consecutive sobriety in more than 6 months.

Just tell your AV to go suck puke and kick it to the gutter!
Great to see you on the Sober Bus!
