2017/10/31 12:30 Halloween parade at Fabius Pompey Elementary school.

2017/10/08 08:30 Okay. So? What happened? Things were going okay. I was getting by. In August I had over three thousand views on my website. I never had over three thousand before. I was posting daily to my Khan Tiki Mon’s Bar and Lounge site on Facebook. I was posting regularly to Instagram. I was doing a video every Thursday on YouTube. I was getting stuff done. Then, I lost all interest in everything. I stopped updating my website and page views for September dropped to less than a thousand. I haven’t posted a new video or anything on Instagram. I have struggled with depression before. That’s probably what this is (or was – not sure if it’s over). I am making up my mind to just start over. Clean slate. The holidays are coming up and Winter will be starting. The holidays are usually a time that cause me anxiety and I am pretty sure that I suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). SAD is a type of depression that is related to the changes in seasons. For most people that suffer from SAD the symptoms start in the Fall and continue on into the Winter months.

Crafts. Painting.

2017/10/16 07:15 First day on my new job. Watching the little baby Grant Scott.

2017/10/12 11:00

Alice painted snowflakes pooping balloons and I painted Alice.

2017/10/20 19:00 Karen and I went to Baltimore, Md. to see her nephew play for Johns Hopkins football.

2017/11/19 10:30 "Five Nights at Freddy's" is a video game I guess. It is a horror based game that takes place at a Chucky Cheese like place with a kid birthday party. What could be more horrifying I suppose. Alice talked me into getting this Lego like representation of the game. Karen Tennant corrects anyone that says Lego - it is not Lego but a Lego like product. I had to help Alice put the 253 piece thing together this morning. It came with Balloon Boy and Mangle.

I took Tristan and Alice to Toys R Us. This is what Alice wanted. I sent a text to Karen to see if this was okay. She said it was not.

Adison wrote: "Dad you were 11 minutes late!!! That's a lot of minutes... A few is 3... It wouldn't have mattered but it was Elliotts first day of daycare and every minute that went by was one less minute I was going to be able to spend helping him adjust at some strangers house... And for the record I don't think I yelled and I waited 9 whole minutes before calling." No, she yelled at me.

2017/10/15 19:30 I went to a cocktail event at the Hotel Syracuse - my friend Blair was a judge at this cocktail challenge.

2017/11/11 19:00 Alice and I made tuna fish sandwiches, waffle fries, and vanilla milkshakes. Watching Alice's favorite show "Pee Wee's Playhouse". Pee Wee says, to Miss Yvonne, as he grabs her skirt, "I see Paris, I see France, I can see your underpants!". Could be the next scandal up on CNN?

2017/11/17 14:00 After our ice cream Elliott and I grabbed some groceries. We checked out and we were leaving. I had just finished buckling him in when his Mom called and asked if we wanted to meet at Wegmans for lunch. Sure. Just so you know we already had dessert.

Even as I start over and begin anew this latest iteration of my rants and rambles will still be very much like past versions. I will continue to share way too much information. I will continue to be as weird as I always have been. I don’t think starting over is going to make me any more interesting than I was before; and so I am likely to still be incredibly boring.

2017/11/13 08:30 Weekend is over. Back to my day job.

Learning about the bears today.

2017/11/04 09:30 DIY project at Home Depot.

2017/11/17 19:00 We went to the fund raiser Art Gone Wild Reception, Sale & Art Auction at the Rosamond Gifford Burnet Park Zoo.

Breakfast at the Little Gem Diner with the little baby Grant Scott. I am the baby whisperer.

Big pancake.

2017/11/05 10:00 Breakfast at the Little Gem before the train show.

2017/10/22 12:30 Karen and I took our friend Michelle to lunch at White Water Pub.

Train show at the fairgrounds.

Pumpkin girl.

2017/11/18 17:00 There are about five million people at the mall today. Securing the world's largest toothpick bridge for display was a major marketing coup.

Fireside chat.

2017/10/21 23:00 Dinner at Laura's house.

KHAN TIKI MON’S RANTS AND RAMBLES V.11.76

Can I start over? Sure I can. I just need a clean white piece of paper; one that I haven’t marked on yet. And I need a new crayon. It doesn’t matter what I drew before because I am starting over.

Gorgeous fall day. Great day to wander at the zoo.
