I’m almost all packed for BRAG. I just couldn’t get on a roll and finish everything. However, I did sew a hole in a pair of shorts so that I could pack them.
At Nam Dae Mun Tuesday they had five ears of corn for $1.59, so naturally I bought some even though they probably traveled halfway around the world to get into this store.
I saw my first lightning bug of the season last night. Woot!
Wordle: four, my starter was FLORA
Volunteering with Trees Atlanta this morning. I would love to treat myself to lunch out afterward, but I have too much food which has to be eaten before Saturday.
I also think that I am going to experiment during BRAG by abstaining from coffee drinking. If you thought I was going to say beer drinking, you clearly don’t understand the point of BRAG. 😀
That is a bold choice. Taking away a comfort item during a week where there is some discomfort may be a little rough.
I may slip some caffeine pills in to your water to keep The Hulk at bay 🙂
You have a gift for taking self-flagellation to entirely new heights. My coffee will have to be pried from my cold, dead hands.
All of the health experts say coffee is good for you.
I don’t drink coffee – I know, I’m weird.
I do not understand the obsession – but that’s ok.
My first full time job was night shift and the rest of the crew lived off coffee. I never could do it, though a few thousand gallons of CocaCola were consumed instead. I can’t do fru-fru coffee, but basic American brew is fine, mostly with a tiny bit of sugar.
There are two methods to my madness:
1. Due to skyrocketing coffee prices the price of coffee during BRAG will be higher.
2. My body has had a few strange days in the past few months, and the only constant in my morning routine is coffee. BRAG could be a way to see if there is any correlation.

Managed 18 last night between storms. Got home and walked the “herbie” to the street and about halfway down the driveway, heard something. Looked over my shoulder at a wall of rain coming out of the back pasture. Tried to pick it up to a jog, but knew it would make no difference as it was raining too hard. So far, 3.5 in the gauge.
I did manage to change the oil in the GS in preparation for the trip. Of the 4 connectors holding the skid plate, 2 were stripped. 1 Torx screw and one nut. I managed to pivot on the nut and bolt and never had to remove the plate completely. Previous work was not done at the dealer.
I could probably do without coffee in the morning, but no beer on BRAG would be a hard no.

I drank my coffee black until I was in my late 30s, and then Kevin introduced me to the wonders of half ‘n’ half and I’ve never looked back. I only have one cup in the morning but it is sacrosanct.
Surin for dinner last night then home to watch the Sox actually win a game against the Braves.
I started drinking coffee at 30. Back then I was extremely fit, and the only way to justify coffee was to drink in black.
I was extremely superior about it when I was younger. Then I got older and discovered that coffee with cream in it tastes better and also that I don’t care what people think.
Taster better to you perhaps.
When I worked in an office drinking it black was a blessing because I never had to worry about if there was milk, sugar, creamer, etc. if there was coffee and water, I could drink coffee.
Took tomorrow off work because we have people coming to the cabin to do some work. I want to install a retractable awning over the deck because it is uninhabitable in the summer afternoons due to the blazing sun.
so busy at work – working half days while my sister is here – mornings are insane.
Got my free tshirt at Schoolhouse yesterday- (got the waffle house one, in case you were wondering)
That is the best shirt.
Back from Trees Atlanta, ate an ear of corn so far. Will be microwaving some leftovers in a minute.
Leftovers in belly. I’m full, and may require a nap.
Wow, that nap about which I joked occurred and I feel much better.
Not sure how or when, but it appears that ahead of BRAG I’ve picked up some poison ivy. Oh joy!
You do have a gift…
Yep. I have been good at eradicating from WLF and the surrounding areas through the liberal use of 30% vinegar. Since I don’t hash any longer, I’m wondering if Betsy’s dog ran through some and shared the oils with me, even though I tried not to touch her afger our Saturday walk.
