Crashed Computer


Okay, my computer recently crashed, so I have been unable to blog in comfort. I could go into the Buzzard's man cave to blog and use his laptop, but honestly, I'm just not comfortable there.
There are certain aspects of the man cave that are kind of sweet. He is a DJ part time, so he has a really good sound system in the man cave. He also has a recliner, a flat screen TV and of course a computer. His TV is hooked up to his sound system, so he has surround sound with great big speakers. (This means if there is an earthquake in TV, you can actually feel the earth shake beneath you. Of course that also applies to gun shots, car races, animals growling or any other loud noises on TV. I have had to remove all pictures from the wall adjoining the man cave to the house, because the walls actually shake from the vibration caused by the volume.
The part that is somewhat disconcerting is a) the space is shared with a go kart and b) the smell is not too great. The other hobby my husband has besides DJing is go karting. His go kart is parked in the cave too. According to Buzzard, the smell in the cave is "wonderful." "It smells like tires," he says. Apparently his idea of a wonderful smell and mine are not the same. I like the smell of things like apple cinnamon, potpourri, heated oil, perfume, body spray, etc. He likes the smell of gasoline, tires, dirt, BO, things like that. (Okay, probably even the Buzzard doesn't like the smell of BO. I may have exagerrated just a tad.)
Anyway, if I wait too long between blogs, you can definitely blame it on the Buzzard. He has neglected to hook up a different computer for me, so I have to use his laptop when he's not in the Man Cave.
Stay tuned!

Don't like tire smell, but I do enjoy the smell of gasoline, Sharpie markers, paint and bondo. Maybe I should start selling candles with those scents and market them to the man cave dwellers.

That is actually a terrific idea! It probably shouldn't be candles because guys don't really like burning candles, but maybe a can of scent they can just open.
