The Apple Watch

So I took Joyce out on a “normal” date last week – no fancy restaurants, no khakis and no church shoes. We hit the taco truck and the Stone Company store, and then walked around Old Town. I didn’t spend more than fifty bucks on the two of us…and I reckon we had the best … Continue reading The Apple Watch →

Saturday Night with Monica (last part)

I think I told y’all that they know me late-night at the IHOP on Arroyo Parkway. I stop there a lot after hanging out with Monica so I can get a strawberry sundae. (Having a girlfriend who’s always on a diet sucks when you like dessert with dinner.) The hostess/waitress, Alicia, knows me. She’s dang … Continue reading Saturday Night with Monica (last part) →

Back to the iPhone

In case y’all missed the end of my last Disneyland post, the answer to the question you’ve all been wondering about is: Yes. I kept the iPhone X Joyce gave me. It sat on my bureau for almost a week, until I just decided to open the dang thing. I thought about Meemaw’s advice and I … Continue reading Back to the iPhone →

Disneyland (last part)

So Keaton finally stopped calling everything we did at Disneyland gay when we went down the big drop on Splash Mountain. I’m sure he's gonna deny the hell out of it, but Keaton – yes, Keaton Penner the total badass second baseman – even liked Small World. Ok, he didn’t high-five me afterwards, but I … Continue reading Disneyland (last part) →

Meemaw’s Advice about Joyce

When I need good advice, I turn to Meemaw. And I needed good advice about the Joyce situation. I don't usually stress out. This was stressing me out. So I got on the phone the next morning before work and called Meemaw up. On her land line. She’s got a cell phone, but she hates … Continue reading Meemaw’s Advice about Joyce →

Good Advice Needed!

Y’all might be surprised that I’d want to talk to Meemaw about my situation with Joyce: do I keep the iPhone X she surprised me with?...and what do I do about her? Or I guess that should be with her lol. From what I know about her, Joyce doesn’t play games like most LA chicks … Continue reading Good Advice Needed! →

So she gave me this phone…

Ok…so…Joyce had just bought me an expensive dinner and given me an iPhone X I wasn’t sure if I was going to keep. I’d driven her home in her Tesla, and I’d pulled the car into her garage and… Yeah. Exactly. Oh shit. Before y’all read any further, you can leave a comment saying what … Continue reading So she gave me this phone… →

Three Pickles with Joyce

So back to Joyce and the iPhone. To recap, there we were, in the expensive steakhouse, about to eat our desserts, and I unwrapped the package she’d given me. (Joyce actually wrapped it and didn’t stick it in a stupidass gift bag. It’s way more fun opening a present when you have paper and ribbons to … Continue reading Three Pickles with Joyce →
