tags: life

As you may remember, #1 (and only) Son is now a working stiff, having snagged a gig washing dishes at a local sushi place.

OK… After 35 years in the working world, I guess I haven’t figured that out yet.

weell, yeah, that’s what they say, innit? Somehow though it’s easier to just nod and smile, or tell someone to piss off. heh.
