Happy May Day

This month I’ll be turning 43 years old. Hopefully by then, I would’ve sold this house and moved down into the south to become a southern gent. However, the process to get the house ready to sell it is going slower than I anticipated. There is nothing more dreadful, nothing more rueful, than having to move an entire house filled with 5 grown people.

Do I find myself elated all the time?

No, almost impossible to do.

Miserable?

Wouldn’t go that far.

I plod on, press and pull, scratch and claw — until there is nothing left.

Being May the first, I am often reminded of the delightful and hilarious short story May Day — written by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Do yourselves a favor and read it here. Thank me later.

Small pet peeve of mine. Working from home has to be the most disastrous thing another human being can do to himself. All day long I am shadowed by my fucking dogs — asking to go out or eat something — or simply wanting me to throw a toy at them. I thought I loved dogs, until I was left alone with them for an extended period of time. Now I find myself tolerating them and often find myself locking the doors behind me.

Futures are sharply higher. Today I allocate the Quant in Exodus, so I will be busy for an hour or two after the market opens.

        I get the dog thing. Cute as hell but they don’t know when to stop asking for shit.

        How far south are you going?

        A dog only wants to please it’s master. Get that through your thick skull. You know, man’s best friend and all. Consider it a privilege that the mongrel wants to be with you.

          You fucking dogFAGS make me sick. It is not a privilege for an inferior life form to follow me around and shit on my floors and chew through my molding.

    I would like to be 43 again; with all I know now, naturally. All the best to you Fly.

    Here, late afternoons the dog (bless her little heart) stalks me around the house, staring at me, until I finally take her for a walk. Bugs the hell out of me, but how can I get mad at a cute little dog?

    Fly don’t know what kind of place you will buy, but consider value of guest cottage on property. It can be your office.

    we recently acquired a 2 y.o. rescue dog. 40 mins early walk and 40 mins evening wipes her out.

    day time she runs the yard .5 acre fenced in, chasing wildlife. other than that, sits on her designated mats and sleeps in the sun.

    craziest thing she sleeps on top of her dog crate in the dog run .. funny as hell.
