I was likened to a senior citizen the other day. The caller was another spammer wanting me to switch to another mobile provider. Said I would soon be entitled to a senior citizen discount. :laugh:

Told him to fuck off.

I seriously want to kill my neighbors dogs, chesapeake bay retrievers and they bark at all hours and at every little thing outside.  I hate them! >:(
I know the frustration. From 5am to 8am this morning, the dog across the road was howling. I bet they leave it alone with nothing to do.
They are not small dogs either.  They rarely go for any degree of walks, just taken out to do their business.  As for your howling dog, it's lonely and wants some company.  We had a dog who did that in the unit next door to us when the residents went to a party and left him alone one night.  One mournful howl after another, but, they eventually moved out so that problems gone.  I should also add that the neighbors with the 2 barkers recently had twin babies and when one wails, so does the other especially since they are apporaching their "terrible 2's" toddler phase.  Makes for interesting times trying to get some morning sleep   ::)
They don't leave the dog alone often, but when they do... geez. They could easily give it a meaty bone to chew or some toys to play with/wreck. But i don't think they do.

I noticed a city truck parked outside and I went to see what was up.

They were taking samples of my ash tree, again.
I found out last year, when they advised me of the road, drainage and sidewalk work they just finished a couple of weeks ago and took my fabulous red maple tree down, that my ash tree was registered with the state forestry service and had a serial number.

Apparently there are only a few hundred left in Indiana that are not infested with ash borer bugs. All they know of are registered, serial numbered and tested every month.

They've taken down two infested ash trees from near neighbors' homes this summer. They take samples of healthy trees trying to figure why some survive in the midst of so many infested trees.
Mine is still clean. No one knows why, but taking all these samples from healthy trees, maybe they can come up with something to save the few remaining ash trees in North America.
I told them to do what ever they need to do that could help.

It is not just a few species, either. The entire ash tree genus, Fraxinus is in danger of extinction.

Apparently, I wouldn't be surprised if the worst animal took a shit on a bike path.... and by the worst kind of animal, I mean mankind -_-

to describe my frustration with people like that... imagine the rake being mankind's shit, and me as Sideshow Bob:

The abandoned nearby cemetery must have been quite the beer drinkers hang out!  I like to walk in it because it's peaceful and surprisingly quiet for being near a roadway.  Today, I found 2 more old beer cans outside the rock wall that encircles it.  That makes about 13 or so empty cans that I have found there.  Not to mention the four full ones I found.  Outside the rock wall.  Oh well!  I picked them up and disposed of them.

No work scheduled for tomorrow... might as well look for stuff to do otherwise. Halloween is Tuesday, so I'm going to be festive the best way I know how to be.

No annoying the zealots on Halloween won't work for me, especially if some of them are my good friends.

My ubereats job is on a countdown right now.  I need a new insurance policy and because I have to pay for six months up front it's $2k.  I have 20 days to do it.  I'm not going to make it.  I don't know if they'll boot me off the platform or what.  I'm definitely not going to make it.  I have an interview tomorrow with KFC maybe they'll hire me.  But I have no expectations.  I'm so tired.

Sooner rather than later when I have everything prepared... I'm going to use the referral to get to the Rehab place in order to take the assessment to know if I can, or cannot drive.

Reading the headlines on Twitter and wondering what the Cubbies are planning is just icing on the cake.

What are my Cubbies planning?

I saw a tire come off a boat trailer on the highway today and the guy didn't even stop.

Sounds like the guy who lost his Skull diesel exhaust ornament that I found.  Couldn't hear or didn't care what he lost.
