576 DAYS LATER

Published on May 26, 2017March 24, 2020 by sittingwithtommy1 Comment

The only suitable way to begin this post is to apologize. It has been 576 days since my last post. That is nearly 14,000 hours since you all have last heard from me in this format. What a shame. What an atrocity. I know how much you people liked reading my posts…all five of you…and then it all stopped. And for that, I am sorry.

Since we last sat and talked in this way, a lot of stuff has happened! I graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma and got my first full-time job and moved out of my momma’s house and started graduate school and bought my first car all by myself and put together my last will and testament. You heard right. Your boy is growing up. Continue reading “576 DAYS LATER” →

While a few of my opponents were out running a lowly attack campaign against myself, I was working to improve the league. The organizers of said campaign habitually assume the worst. Unfortunately, any attempt to advance my team turns their world completely upside down, flips it around, shakes it up, crumbles it, and throws what’s left in the garbage.

Am I mischievous? Absolutely. That is without a doubt an understatement. Am I devious? You bet I am. Some would even call me sly and deceitful and I wouldn’t bother arguing with them (I would win the argument if I chose to engage, however).

Bill’s Steakouse & Saloon
1013 SW 89th Street
Oklahoma City, OK 73139

There used to be a place called Bill’s Island Grill just a couple miles down the road from me. The place was terrible. I went twice and the food was short of enjoyable and the service was just as bad. But for whatever reason, the place was always busy. The parking lot was filled with cars nearly every night of the week. Continue reading “BILL’S STEAKHOUSE & SALOON” →

LOSING WISDOM

For the last several years my wisdom teeth would occasionally cause me some pain, but the pain would never last for more than a day. At the beginning of this year, my teeth were causing me so much discomfort that it was affecting my eating. And this is where I had to draw the line. I knew something had to be done.

TO GET THE DUDE, MAKE HIM FOOD

Published on April 5, 2015March 24, 2020 by sittingwithtommy

This past Friday night I got to have some enjoyable conversations with Abby, Addi, and Mak. Inevitably, we always end up asking one another if there are any potential prospects on the radar. The answer each of us gives is almost always a negative. Continue reading “TO GET THE DUDE, MAKE HIM FOOD” →
