Last night's Academy Awards totally bypassed "The continuing saga of Uncle Dave and the Dog Lady"
WHAT? (just a little Oscar humor .... very little, right?)

Just thought I'd catch you up. Since I first told this story, there has not been ONE night of peace from the relentless ramblings of the now infamous "Dog Lady" of Lafayette Hill. She wears her glaucoma glasses (for pity), because she says the stage lights bother her "vertigo" (never did the WHOLE YEAR before ... odd) She's an attention seeking missile of malice, and she's not happy unless everyone is noticing her. I now believe that's why she was interested in me in the first place - she needed to be closer to the "main attraction" in this small neighborhood room, and I was an easy target to buddy up to. HA! ... so she thought.

Anyway, about 2 weeks ago she started moving on to a guy that used to come see our hostess (the hostess really, reeeeeeally liked this dude), and now, she's ditched the "medicinal" glasses (it's a miracle! She can see again!!!), and she parades this new puppy in front of the whole room ... lots of touchy-feely moments, and sickening high pitched, phony laughter to make sure we're watching. It'd hard NOT to ... like an accident on the highway. You don't WANT to watch ... but it's just so tragic, you NEED to. So sad.

So, the hostess is mad at her, the waitresses have the hostess' back, and ...
(wait for it) ...
This week, I had TWO GLORIOUS DOG-LADY FREE DAYS! She was in Friday with the new puppy (on his leash), and I guess she noticed the chill in the air from the wait staff, so Saturday, and Sunday she was a NO SHOW! First time in months. Whew.

Maybe, just maybe ... things can get back to normal, and at next years awards I'll be nominated for: Best Actor in a recurring role, as the guy who ignores the trainwreck at the first table ... night after night ....... after night ............... after night.

'nite folks!

Obviously, the hostess didn't make a strong enough pitch to the guy ... OR, he just wasn't that into her ...
He will be Dog Lady's 'little dog, until her big dog comes' ...
(compliments of Carl Perkins)

Yup - but the girls feel it's a violation of the "Bra Code" anyway.

Yeah, well ...

The Oscars were on last night..?

Not at my house ... no TV service. I'm a streamer!

Good way to save money..cable is out of control.

My buddy Robin Vosbury and me:
Matchbox

cute!

My cable bill (DirectTV) is just short of $300.00 (with the NFL ticket). That's as much as a car payment on a small new car. I rationalize it by telling myself that I don't go out much and rarely take vacations but it's still dumb since I only watch a couple hours a day and then only 3 or 4 channels. I keep threatening to change it but like with most things these days, procrastination wins out.
