Driving between Dallas and Houston
I guess I could add that overnight tent camping to my list. Preferably somewhere that I can take my dog. But I don't really want to stay in a hotel or anything.

Driving between Dallas and Houston
Oh I can definitely make it there and back without any problems. I regularly have to drive to San Angelo, Amarillo, and Lubbock. But a couple of years ago, I realized that I didn't need to rush. I've lived in Texas virtually my whole life and haven't really spent much time seeing Texas rather than driving from point A to point B and back. Last time I was in San Angelo, I detoured on my way back to go through Brownwood - which is kinda mine and @Knoxtnhorn home town. Next time I'm in Amarillo, I'm going to take a couple of extra days and visit Palo Duro Canyon. Want to do the same thing on this Drive, but apparently the State Prison Museum in the lone highlight of this drive....

Driving between Dallas and Houston
Well... This maybe the most accurate thread on Surly. There is not a god damn thing. Unless I stop and the Prison Museum. @Iceman Thanks for the heads up on the rest area. I think from now on, I'll just bring my dog and a couple of sandwiches and stop there. If anyone else knows a good park or something, I would like to stop and do a 2-3 mile run somewhere when the weather is nice.

Driving between Dallas and Houston
Looks like with my new role at my job, I'll be driving from Dallas to Houston and back 2-3 a month. Anything outside of DFW and Metro Houston worth stopping for? Food specifically, but I will probably need some places to stop just to stretch or walk or something.

Hey Steel Shank!
Didn't really know where to put this. My son (12yo) is been really getting into hot sauce. So for his birthday I bought him a bunch of different bottles. The traditional stuff, like Cholula, Tobasco, Valentines, ect. plus a few ones that looked unique. Couple of nights ago, he pulled out a bag of Flammin' Hot Cheetos and covered it was some of the hot sauces. Next morning him : "Why is my asshole of fire???"

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
Today Me: (trying to plan ahead so I can spend Saturday watching football) what time is my mom getting 7yo daughter (no pics sickos) Her :7 yo really wants me to go with her to the party, if I can talk her out of it she'll go in the morning but if not I'll take her to the party and your mom can meet me there and take her home Me : while I'm sure that was an answer to some question by someone at some point. That really doesn't help know anything about what the actual plans are.

Trivial Things That Make You Surly
The thing that bugs me the most is when I see a pick up truck in the left hand lane. I can't tell you exactly why that bugs me more than any other vehicle. I think subconsciously, think that if you drive an F150 or something similar, you should either know the curtesy rules or you really don't need a pick up, you just have a small penis

Post a pic that makes you lol
6 drinks a week. Yeah, That's what I meant

Trivial Things That Make You Surly
I started doing this about a year ago. Also, if anyone is wondering who the lady walking down the very center of the aisle at HEB very slowly while stopping repeatedly to check prices. It's my wife. I've given up. We don't go to the grocery store together anymore

That's what I thought. But both times (I think) the Ump said they lost their challenge All in all, crappy weird game

Anyone get an explanation about the extra challenge the angels got?

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
I do this. Been doing it since we started dating. I think the record was walking into a restaurant, getting a table, ordering a drink, and the drink arrived before she did. Now, my 5 year daughter.... That another story.

We got a new AC last week ($14K, fuck) with a Nest thermostat. I told my wife that the app can only be on one phone. So far that seems to be working.

Shit HEB Makes (when its open).
Mine too. Last night, crushed some fresh mint with simple syrup - then half rum/half lime mineral water. Might need to keep that around for post lawn care days.
