I don’t know what it is, but February always seems to go by faster than any of the other months. It’s Blog Post 120.

Love is in the air. St. Valentine has come and gone. It’s a great time to be alive. So, grab your best pair of green mukluks, fill them with pulpy orange juice as a sign to the gods that you are completely with it, just before expressing your desire for world domination and a Snoopy snow cone.

Travel is Back

My wife and I just booked a trip to Paris and Italy in May. The romance, the history, and the adventure will all blend beautifully with the cattle drive of tourists, influencers, and scammers that we will encounter along the way. While we hope to hit all the tourist hotspots, we’re also seeking some good old fashion R&R chillaxin time. It would also be nice to get off the beaten path and see a little of the real Italy.

We’ll have a couple days in Paris before venturing off to the beauty of Venice, historic Florence, and the cultural hub of Milan. We’re also going to Kamloops and Red Deer this summer. Travel is truly back.

Baseball is Back!

Spring training has begun for Major League Baseball. While it’s not a game for everyone, it’s a passion for many and the historical, cultural, and social impact reaches far and wide. Speaking of far and wide, I wonder what the strike zone will be like this year.

As per usual, may the Toronto Blue Jays lose every game (except the games that help the Seattle Mariners or just beat George Costanza’s New York Yankees).

I’m interested to see what kind of year Seattle Mariner’s pitcher, Bryan Woo has this season. He was great last year and I’m hoping he has another strong season. For those who are confused, he’s not on first. Who’s not on first?

Woo.

Woo’s not on first?

No. Woo’s pitching.

Who’s pitching?

Woo.

Who?

No, Woo.

Damn, this blog is awesome. Go Mariners!

Words of Wisdom

1. Cleanliness and hygiene are important. Cats know this. Why do so many humans not understand this?

As a community nurse, I’ve gone to many patient’s homes to provide wound care. A lot of patients have dogs or cats. I think I’ve created a sterile field but discover that all I’ve really done is made a cat bed. Cats know.

2. A.I. can be your friend. That’s what it told me anyway.

I wrote a short story that had some problems and needed editing. I was going to ask for AI to fiks it, but I decided not to. I then received ad after ad after ad speaking to the many great benefits of AI. It’ll make your life better and easier. At least that’s what it told me.

“I think it’s important to write things that are clearly human, without AI, without computer assist, with grammar and punctuation software.”

“Then write something with lots of mitsakes, then it’ll look human made.”

3. Learn to get it.

There’s a moon in the photo… and it’s day time…

I still don’t get it.

In Conklusion

Thank you for checking out this month’s blog. It’s hard to believe how fast the time goes. We’re on the verge of March as time marches on. It’s now time for the ending joke with full credit to my wife, Lesly. Enjoy.

My wife and I walked by a man, a little kid, and a big dog.

Once we were past them, I said to my wife, “That should be on a leash.”

My wife said, “Yeah, the dog should be on a leash too.”
