note to self: start using these terms when your role as a therapist makes swearing inappropriate
Heaven bless whoever made a gifset of Colonel Potter’s minced oaths.
Especially as it also includes Klinger dressed like a flapper and BJ’s pink grandpa shirt!
Sunday
Dinner @ killarney house with inlaws and Van for Van’s bday. He turned 61 on the 19th.
It was tasty and went by swiftly. .

Saturday
Finished Orange is the new black.
Dinner with the in-laws and the Meyers at Laughing Buddha.
Spent much time resting.
Friday. Brief recap
Followed up on more car maintenance, green truck will need ball joints sometime sooner or later, to the tune of about $1100 or so.
Meanwhile, oil is changed and tires are rotated on both cars. Love cube driving better with new tires and the noise seems eliminated with the replaced caliper.
Heat was colossal. Too hot for proper meals, just cold pizza from the fridge. Just as well the Meyers postponed Laughing Buddha until tomorrow.
Muh.
When was this?
Me, Mom and Bro. Maybe 92-95? Via cousin Kelly. At Grammy’s house in Port St. Lucie.
Thursday
In-laws returned home last night. Dinner with them tonight.
Tires replaced, caliper replaced to the tune of about 800 buckaroos.
Nailles are moving back to Frederick on Aug 1. Mandy has a teaching gig and they’ll be closer to family. I’m glad they’re moving to a place of greater comfort, sad to see them leave the neighborhood.
Must rent Allison a chicken.
Quick and dirty update.
Lost about 12lbs since last month. Pulse 80, bp 118/70 got allergy shots.
Successfully fought the summer ant invasion, and the boys have been armored vs fleas.
Saw Pacific rim with Allison, and we both enjoyed it. Also watching Orange is the new black, and its been entertaining too, though the pilot nudity was a bit gratuitous.
car needs 3 new tires rear left brake caliper
Oil change today, but tires will rotate when new tires come on. Current were rated at 60k miles and we got more than 100, so I can’t complain too much.
Homemade pizza with Will C tonight as a tip for mowing our lawn and the blue house’s.
Possible SharePoint gig in green belt and another in dc.
Until later, dear journal.
Separated and Reunited in Death
These grave markers — pressed up against either side of an imposing wall, with a pair of clasped hands reaching over the wall’s top — date to a time in Dutch history when Catholic and Protestant graves were strictly segregated. A Catholic and a Protestant married couple, separated in death, arranged for this unique workaround in order to rejoin one another.
In 1842, a colonel in the Dutch cavalry, JWC van Gorkum, married a woman known as JCPH van Aefferden. The union was controversial — van Gorkum was Protestant and van Aefferden was Catholic. Despite the prevailing culture at the time, the two remained married for decades, only separating when van Gorkum died in 1880.
But when van Aefferden passed away eight years later, she couldn’t be buried with her late husband; even in death, Catholics needed to stay with their own. While alive, she made her wishes clear — she did not want to be buried in her family tomb and, instead, wished to be as close to her husband as possible. The solution, seen above, is their connected tombstones.
