Friday: dinner at Hall's to celebrate the old man's 76th bday, spectacular grub, sister in town.
Saturday: oyster roast at Dad's, 2.5 bushels polished off in 2 hours, lots of good grub.
No, wait, sorry....that was all the stuff my FAMILY got to do. I got to sit home with the wife and kids with Covid, and press my nose to the glass, hoping for a whiff fun and delicious foodstuffs.
I award this weekend -27.9/10 Covids, because Covids.

Friday – Hooked up with some frat boys for pizza and beer at Joe’s. Good times catching up.
Sattidy – another brother called with 2 extree tix to the game (UDP row D – Nothing close to Shorty suite level, no catering, parked at the Walker Course). Tailgated but there was no bengaline sighting. Drank heavily and got fussed at.
Sunday – crashed/slept while Ms. Wilbur watched Hallmark.
7.62/10 (14.478/19 on the RH Tig covids scale) with deductions for cold UDP weather

Friday, Mrs. went to a birthday party for our nephew's son, I opted instead to go pick up pants I ordered online from Belk. In-store pickup rather than paying shipping and getting out of a party of 7-year-olds was a win. Back home to make homemade pizza, watch AEW, and fall asleep in the Big Chair.
Saturday, long hike with my pup, chores, watched Clemson win the Veteran's Day Championship, then back to Belk's to return the jeans marked as my size that ended up fitting like they were two sizes bigger. Stopped in Tractor Supply on a lark and found their store-brand jeans on sale and bought two pairs for what one pair at Belk cost me, another win. Back home to flip some channels and watch parts of boring football games, pulled veggie soup out of the freezer for supper, watched AEW, and crashed.
Sunday, Mrs. was working at the park so walked over with the pup and hiked the trails over there for a while. Back home for a quick snack and then a grocery run. A few chores, watched the end of the Tigers winning the ACC Soccer Championship, then got cleaned up and went to see The Turnstiles at the Thirsty Beaver. Great set, the original stuff is excellent and they get way out in left field on their covers...we had a blast. Back home for a quick bite, watched Fear The Walking Dead, checked the internet to see that Clemson basketball won the Asheville Championship, and then crashed.
19/19 Covids for a multi-championship weekend.

Friday - took daughter-of and friend to TL Hanna 2nd round playoff game against Dutch Fork. Was a great game with a lot of back-and-forth. Hanna was down 3 and missed a very makeable GF with 28 sec left. Tough loss. Hit Waffle House for post-game eats.
Saturday - pre-game grocery run. Watched our game and saw some good stuff after team got settled. Nice to see in-game adjustments being made on both sides of the ball. Cooked some chili and enjoyed fall weather from inside. Awakened at 11:30pm to go pick-up son-of in the sticks because ride fell through.
Sunday - cooked up a solid breakfast, church, Messican for lunch, then BB practice. Thought I had my fantasy game in-hand before practice - not so fast - had 2nd highest score losing to highest score. Watched the Raiders win and need the Bills to cover tonight to win the weekly pool I play.
Solid week-end overall.

Fri - checked the kid out of school and headed down to HHI for leukemia fundraiser golf tournament. Frosty Frog Cafe in Coligny for meat up, food, etc. Had some beers, a couple frozen margs and a shot of fireball. Made way back to hotel and old man can't hang. Was up for a little bit but crashed when wife started scratching my back.
Sat - Up at 6 a.m. for some reason, go pick up delicious breakfast at McDonald's of pancakes and sausage. Made way to golf course and had delicious brat for lunch. Played golf with brother in the tournament at The Golf Club at Indigo Run. Course in great shape with firm, fast greens. 7 years running and I am one of the few that has played in them all, and this is likely the last one. We played well but not well enough to win. Had the best round I've played in a bit, though. Supper was at the pavilion at Skull Creek Boathouse. Absolutely slayed a ton of steamed oysters. 8 y.o. daughter did as well, it was quite entertaining. People couldn't believe it. Then had some low country boil and some bbq (pulled pork that is). One of the playing partners that we were paired with is a member of Timuquana Country Club in Fl and Frederica Golf Club on St. Simon's Island. Gonna have him and his buddy up to play at Palmetto, and then go play Frederica, so I got that to look forward to, which is nice. Back to hotel and old man can't hang. Crash.
Sun - Up at 6 a.m. for some reason, out of hotel and end up eating breakfast at Ray's Cafe. An old waffle house or something that some realdonjuan's purchased and run. Everything is served in/on styrofoam/paper. Food was very good though. Make our way home and pretty much lounge around in recovery mode, watch golf/football. Got in some redhead things. Got the news in the evening that buddy and SC golf legend Mike Gravley had passed from lung cancer. Downer finish for a great weekend.
FUCK CANCER!!!
EDIT: Did not see one minute of Clemson football, but glad we won!

Friday who knows.
Saturday up and out to pickup Son-of for tailgate. Cool and damp but spirited, especially after we got into the bourbon. Tigers win, great day in the valley. Packed up and back home in time to watch night slate.
Sunday Wife-of and I head to brunch at Topsoil in TR. Good food, and after a short couch nap I spent the afternoon doing yardwork. Happy to see Tigers wins in BBall and Soccer. Relaxing night.
Did not receive $77 million dollars and indefinite vacation, but the rest was great.
Would recommend, nineteen stars.

More than 800 miles, too much for one weekend
Man it's cold up there, y'all need to move to Florida
Daughter had the most amazing time and loves the cold. She did not want to leave SC
Will try and do a full post with pigs once I get caught up on all the work I blew off to go to my 1st home game since 2007
17/19 Covids -1 for the driving and -1 for no getting to see RH Tig

Fri.: I had to work late but the kids were at their grandparents. Wifeof and I walked down to a new bar for dinner. A.
Sat.: Made a day trip back to Clemson because I was fortunate enough to get tickets in the Alumni box. The trip was a breeze and the game was a lot of fun. Got to hang out with some college friends. Dinner was at Fork Grove BBQ, which was very good. A+
Sun.: Kids miraculously slept in past 7. Hung out and had a family day. Walked to the donut shop, took a nap, Jambalaya for dinner. A.

Friday night - combined all the ingredients in my crockpot for my crockpot hashbrown casserole - set it to low and let it start cooking at 10:00pm
Saturday mawn - got up at 04:30. Fed cats, shaved, showered, and got my purple on for the game. At 05:00 the hashbrown casserole was done and packed it up. At 05:30 myself, Tabbywife, BIL, and SIL all piled into the 'burban and departed for the promised land. Arrived at our Clemson parking spot around 07:40 and commenced to tailgate. Tabbynephew (a Clemson freshman) came by the tailgate after getting painted purple as part of Central Spirit's front row cheer squad. Bunches of Tabbynephews student friends dropped by and grazed at our tailgate.
Got into DV about 11:35 and commenced to watch Clemson finally play to our ability. Did an after-game grilled burger/hotdog tailgate with bunches of students (friends of Tabbynephew). At 6:00pm crammed everything back in the 'burban and headed home. Got home about 8:30pm - watched Duke get "jobbed" in Chapel Hill by the Ref's. Finally got to bed a little after midnight....
Sunday - slept, woke-up, fed cats, prayed thanks to the Father, and slept some more....

Friday picked up my suburban from the mechanic, he came in $1500 below what he quoted me for the transfer case, W there. Made steak frites and drank some wine for dinner. Sattidy took the fam up to Clempson, other than the cold wets had another great time. My kids are motivated to stay the whole game by going on the field after, know how hard it is to keep a 3 year old into a game that long? Sunday went and picked up a tailgating tent, my setup has been missing that all year. $99 at academy yeeeeee yee. Then went wine shopping, and made it home in time to watch Chelsea V Man City, what a freaking game that was. Laid low watching nfl and doing research for upcoming trip.

Started Thursday night by driving through WV to St. Clairsville, OH.
Friday - dealing with some heavy family stuff that is the culmination of all the trials APM was going through and asked for prayers for over the past two years. Good news is, we got the best outcome possible in a very difficult situation. Sincere thanks to all who have lifted ol' APM up during this time.
Satdee - got a slowish run in, the some work, then karate, then headed to awesome Floyd, VA for wood over pizza and sipping chocolate and window shopping and enjoying the Fall hippy vibe. Saw very little of the Clemson game - just some 4th quarter garbage time stuff at the pizza place. Watched the final episode of Lupin with the missus.
Sunday - worshipped Jesus, Chef APM made his famous roast chicken with root vegetables. Ate brie & grapes and drank wine as it cooked. Passed out on the couch before heading up to bed lass nite.
A solid weekend indeed.

or at least a $20 Harris Teeter gift card from the Turkey shoot.
Spent all day Saturday driving around looking for a piece of unobtanium for my boat trailer's brakes. Eventually found what I needed online. Part costs $5, shipping was $19.98. Listened to some of the game on the radio. Inside Don still sounds creepy, and he's got a weird accent.
Nothing yesterday. Cold and drizzling sucks.

Thursday: got wrecked and ended up buying enough soup and crab cakes to feed forty people. Woke up to find selfies that I took with a hottie wearing a crown.
Friday: shitposted a lot on Twitter and message boards. Did normal Friday night stuff.
Saturday: was lucky that some dude from England bailed out on a round of golf so I didn’t have to play in the rain. Had breakfast and mimosas at the course though. Smoked wings. Had people over for the game. Went to a party later in the afternoon that turned into a #### show. I’m never switching to bourbon after 12 hours of drinking again.
Sunday: got talked into playing golf. Decided not to drink because I felt like crap. Ate a huge greasy burger before teeing off and decided that I could take three gummies since I had a full stomach. Realized that was a TERRIBLE idea around hole 4. Wanted to quit by hole 6. Lost a lot of money on holes 7 through 14. Rallied at the end to limit the losses to an acceptable amount.
Monday: woke up and started asking around to see if anyone will buy my golf clubs from me. Stupid game.

Friday: off and went to Spartanburg for the NCAA Southeast regionals, daughter ran a PR and finished second for Clemson. All was good until I got home. Went shopping and then had popcorn. Thirty minutes later I was vomiting with extreme prejudicial hate for food. Soon thereafter, I was peeing out my bee whole. This happened on off all night.
Saturday: wife was working so took my daughter to her scokker game in Cootlujmbia. Didn't eat or drink but butt peed on stops three times. Watched game from the car and butt peed A few more times. Saw TRDJ and took daughter home. Was dehydrated af but got water once home....bad choice. Butt peed the rest of the night.
Sunday: feeling better, had some chicken noodle soup, felt great for an hour, and then prejudicial vomiting began again. Butt peeing commenced and went to bed about 8PM.
Still home today, I have held down some Gatorade and water and feel better. Lost eight pounds since Thursday

didn't do much, mainly put together a murphy bed as we've had to re-structure the upstairs with rugrats needing more space.
guest room is now wife's office + guest room, so the murphy bed made sense. wife's desk was in bonus room, but it was getting a little cramped w/ all the toys.
youngest got sicker over the weekend, took her to doc this morning. just some viral crud / crap, workign through it. tired of getting puked on b/c she keeps coughing like crazy.
and I'm sore as a muhfugga
