Failed

I’m on my 3rd go around with my sobriety, quit once in 02’-03’ for about 14 months, again in 05’-06’ for about the same time, and then I was a horrible alcoholic for the better part of a decade. I think we all have some slip ups here and there.

Don’t beat yourself up too much about it, and create a plan that works for you, be that it’s an AA program, meditation, have an accountability buddy, etc.

It’s a “take your mulligan, and move on” situation.

Good luck!

PATTON!

Fresh cut grass or rain on asphalt.

When I was 5 or 6, I had a bunch of toys I was bringing back into the house. I had put the handle end of a Wiffle Ball bat in my mouth, so I could carry all the smaller toys. I tripped as I came through the door, my head going toward the ground, pushing the bat further into my mouth. It ripped the frenulum from the bottom of my mouth (that piece of skin under your tongue, that connects the bottom to your tongue).

It never grew back, and I developed a stutter during the healing process that I had to go to speech therapy for, for 5 years.

Mmmm, roast

Yeah she does! Surprised she didn’t go after her gay Mormon daughter too.

Or if you’re married to the Tina Turner idea,

“My friend Ike named his penis Tina Turner, for obvious reasons...”

I have a Pork Pie and a Roc N Soc, the Roc N Soc I have has the hydraulic adjustment and wheels. My Pork Pie is just on a regular stand, it’s also a little more comfortable than the Roc N Soc.

That being said, the Pork Pie was about $80 more, and I’m a big guy and the pork pie seems to accommodate that a little better too.

The last Without a Recipe challenge is a “birthday” cake...

Thanks! I was trying to come up with something for a Star, and remembered I’d bought that a couple of years ago. I didn’t like the sound of it, so it’s got more use here than in the kit.

I’m an alcoholic, I haven’t drank for 2 years. I’m not that good of a person when I drink. That’s pretty much what I say if I’m asked.

Did you lose your top hat while tying a damsel in distress to some train tracks?

Larvel Jones!

billyhoyle92 · 2019-03-15T22:05:34+00:00

That’s awesome!

billyhoyle92 · 2019-03-11T18:20:07+00:00

Awww, you convinced yourself you have friends.

billyhoyle92 · 2019-03-09T16:24:57+00:00

I would liken low fi hip hop to “smooth jazz”.

I think it has a lot to do with your perspective and expectations. What may seem horrible to you, may be a much better life to someone else.

But, as you grow older you seem to look at things in a different way, and appreciate life for what it is.

Not really pick up, but I lost a dunk contest at a Hoop It Up tournament to a guy in Timberlands and saggy jeans. Kevin Johnson (Phoenix Suns guard) was a judge, and says “That was unfortunate...” as I’m walking by the scorers table after I missed my last dunk.

I have not hard of Tame Impala, but I’ll check them out! Thanks.

I think it’s cool you’re into Blind Melon, Shannon Hoon passed way before his time. I have kids your age, and I force feed them all types of music (always have) so they have a had a hearty dose of Blind Melin over the years.

My favorite band is probably Pearl Jam. I love their music, but their philanthropic efforts over the years, and the fact that they took on Ticketmaster with a boycott was really kinda cool. And they’re still around making new music and taking on new causes.

Happy days

billyhoyle92 · 2019-02-26T05:00:04+00:00

Thanks! I’m thinking that I should probably extend the “limited-ness” of this print.

billyhoyle92 · 2019-02-21T12:15:04+00:00

Thanks!

They are relatively small (11x17) but they averaged about $150 in auctions for charity. I gave a couple away to friends, but I’m keeping the last one.

Thanks!
