Disappointment a Day: 71One ring to bind them.

I have my unique interests. I will admit that I have interest in things that, while not inappropriate, they are just odd. Today, I saw something very close to this:

I’m talking about the right on the right. The one I saw today was bigger than this one. I can’t knock someone for enjoying Mickey Mouse or even Disney. I love a good Disney movie. Heck, I’ve been known to watch the Disney channel on occasion and semi enjoy it.

This to me is almost in the same arena as a tattoo. While easier to remove than a tattoo, a wedding ring is a very permanent decision. I know people get divorced left and right, but this is pretty close. I only take my wedding ring off when I’m working in my bee yard.  Every other time it stays on my finger. I feel weird when it comes off. Now imagine Mickey Mouse living on your finger every day for the rest of your life. Eating dinner? Mickey Mouse is there. In the shower? Mickey Mouse is there. Taking a slam? Mickey Mouse is there. Getting busy with your S.O? Mickey Mouse is there.

It doesn’t quite disappoint me as it geeks me out. In my search for this ring, I stumbled across a few other things.

This ring heats up the wearer’s finger the day before their anniversary to serve as a reminder. I see all kinds of things wrong with it, or at least things that could go wrong. The geek in me loves the idea of this, but what happens when the machines rise up? Will I lose my finger?

 

I never got Pokemon. These people sure did:

Awesome for them, but what do you tell your kids? They won’t be excited by your originality. They will think, “Dorks. Everybody knows  Team Rocket is the best.” Parents always disappoint their kids.

Disappointment a Day: 69 Snuff Box

I’m really disappointed that American TV doesn’t take chances. Snuff Box is an excellent example.

Warning. LANGUAGE!! NSFW or small children.

 
If you have Netflix instant do yourself a favor and watch this show.

Disappointment a Day: 68 Naps

I love naps. The short 20 minute “power” nap is awesome. Lyla down for a nap is awesome. It allows me to get things done around the house with out a crazy toddler running around. It also allows me to just veg on the couch if that is what I need. It also allows Amberly and I to just chill for a bit. But, when I get a two hour nap I get what I have right now. Not sleepy at 2 am. This combined with the time change is really going to disappointment come Monday morning.

Disappointment a Day: 67 Pete a Day: 48 Tashka Adventure race!

Today was the Tashka Adventure race. It was put on by About Time Events. Excellent swag and the event even started on time. I LOVE that.

I’m not disappointed because we didn’t finish. From my estimation we made it 17ish miles. 6 miles on canoe, close to 4 miles running, and 7ish on bike. I was pooped, Mom was pooped. No biggie.

My disappointment today was that I forgot to turn on my GPS tracker. I would know exactly how far we went. I’m kicking myself for that. Oh well.

 

My photo of the day is of something Amberly said she had never seen before.

That is salt from my sweat. I had a head band on at one point. Then my bike helmet set in about the same place. I guess it just caught the sweat, evaporated, and left the salt residue on my forehead.

Disappointment a Day: 66

Disappointment = myself. I missed yesterday. I was so caught up in making sure I had my gear together for the race.
