Nothing especially exciting happened today, but a few moments stood out.
- The handyman who services our complex came today to look at our broken garbage disposal, and friendly conversation prompted him to ask me to read and edit his screenplay. Evidently his passion project is writing a sitcom about a schlubby guy in his mid-fifties with three pet talking pomeranians.
- Yesterday’s post inspired my friend Scott to write me a particularly kind and supportive email encouraging me to eat more pork. He enthusiastically wrote “As for the bacon…ROCK ON AUBS! I think you should slowly start eating little nibbles of pork because honestly…pork is the best food on the planet. By the time I come to visit Seattle, I will take you on a pork belly/bacon excursion so that you can finally experience life to the fullest.” He’s dead serious. He also said that he’s planning on making a bacon apple pie this weekend.
- My friend Kate came over today to drop off a hat she test-knit for me and for some help with WordPress, and after she left, Mike actually said that he would possibly want to be “couple friends” with her and her fiance. I am not making this up.
Life is good. Happy Wednesday!
Welcome to the adventures of Aubrey and Michael. We plan on using this blog to keep our family and friends back in California amidst on our new adventure here in Seattle Washington!

Funny that you should mention bacon/pork. I’ve been avoiding the stuff for years – ok, months — as I try and hop back on the whole “exercise/ get in shape” wagon. But I love it.
So yesterday my friend Mike invites me over for “breakfast” at 1:00pm, and, well I won’t get into why I am available for a casual lunch/ breakfast get together in the middle of the week/day, but I sit down to his country meal of eggs, rice?, toast, and cinnamon bacon? He put cinnamon on his bacon — it was delicious. The fat really does melt in your mouth. Long story short, my body hated me after the feast, and I did it again and had bacon on my sandwich today – still not a good idea! Scott’s body may be used to the joys of pork, but your stomach would probably buck the fatty meat. Stick to pumpkin!
