Alright hello everyone and welcome back to the blog. In honor of yesterday being the, what will become, annual university of Wyoming cowboys appreciation day, I thought I’d give a little update on my life to the viewers.
So an update on my job, i still work at the grocery store. It was sold to another, smaller company and it changed quite a bit. After about 6 months the produce manager quit and I got promoted to that position. Since then, the department has turned around completely. There are 3 ways we measure success. When Howard left we were first in sales by a small margin, last in gross profit percentage (the most important metric to the owner) and middle of the pack in distribution percentage. Since I took over we lead the entire company (granted 20~ stores) in sales by a large margin (35% higher than second), gross profit percentage, and distribution percentage. A clean sweep 😎. With that being said, I am currently trying to leave. I put in an application and did an interview at my county sheriff office to work in the jail. He said they weren’t hiring but would let me know if someone left. Because it’s a very quiet county without much crime people don’t leave very the position very often. Because of this I am considering applying for the same position at my neighboring county. They have high turnover due to the fact that their demographic is, well, let’s say they would for the big majority be more likely to be a Louisville cardinal than they would a Stanford cardinal. So that’s my goal there I’ll update you on if I ever get there.
Moving onto the more personal stuff, I am in a loving and committed relationship with my girlfriend for just over a year now. This is the happiest I’ve ever been with someone else. I have confidence that I’ve found my life partner. I wish I knew how to explain what I love so much about my Katelynn, but written language could never tell the whole story.
When she moved in with me, she brought her little dog, Bobby aka da Bob. If you were involved in the ladmas of 2024 you may remember seeing him. Hes a 10 year old Maltese and he’s extremely cute and funny. Very loving. He has potty issues and often wears a diaper inside because he pees every 10 minutes.
Maybe a month or 2 after moving in with me, Katelynn saw a kitten someone was giving away on Facebook and wanted to get him, so we took in our little tuxedo cat and named him Batman. He is the most aggressive, fat cat ever. He loves biting people. He loves biting Bobby. Because of this, after about 10 months we decided he needed a friend he could play with, because Bobby is too frail and polite for him.
So we went to a local volunteer caretaker looking for another feline. This woman runs a shelter out of her own property. She had a dozen enclosures all with different cats who had similar needs and personalities, and she operated the place all by herself with one other person. There, we found a nice little Russian blue cat who just wanted to be loved. Tucker, who was renamed Yoshi, was almost 4 years old at the time of adoption and had lived there his entire life. He sticks his tongue out all day and wants to be petted 24/7. He frequently gets abused by Batman.
Well everyone thats the biggest part of what I’ve been up to. I hope everyone is well and I am happy to report that I can consider myself a happy man. Thank you for stopping by and stay safe my friends.
