Pretty sure I’m going to get myself killed in some random
and what should have been completely harmless fashion… Last night I wound up stepping through the
stair in the garage headed into the house with groceries, etc… Wound up on the ground, fortunately all those
years getting thrown around in Aikido/Ju Jitsu seem to have stuck with me as
nothing TOO bad seems to have happened.
Of course, while I was laying on the concrete I couldn’t help but think
that this would be how I wind up getting killed after all of the amazingly
stupid stuff I’ve done over the years…
Been shot a few times, stabbed, hit with cars, dropped out of various
aircraft and none of that did me in J… But watch out for those broken stairs… Ibuprofen is my friend, mostly because I lost
my ass all those years ago playing poker and lack some important padding J…
Not sure what is going on with the kids from the local High
School… I spent a few years in a line
combat unit, and we didn’t take losses at anything like the level these kids
are. Lost another one Thursday out here,
and he was a friend of the family… Good
kid, damn shame. Not really looking
forward to the wake, his sister was really close with Maggie and the kids
(classmates with Kaitlyn) and she was over here all the time during their HS
years… I cannot even begin to imagine
what she is going through as she was quite close to her older brother.
Hang in there.
ReplyDeleteJa, was a bit rough, the younger girls are the same ages more or less as our younger ones, and they hang out together a lot... I'd not been to a Fireman's funeral in a LONG time, really similar to military ones in a lot of aspects
