Alestorm is coming to my city, and I have tickets! Thanks to either @save2600 or @GoldLeader, don't remember which one of your posts/comments introduced me to them about 6 years ago.

And Elvenking is opening! I like them too! (YMMV) Looks like the closest they are coming to me would be Omaha, NE but that's an 8 hour drive if memory serves (We did do that once for a concert...)...These days, I'm making sure I have the energy to drive down to Denver Sunday to see my friends' bands play. And that's only 2 hours away

Car battery died - debated calling AAA, but since the car was a manual, I decided to try a clutch pop in reverse, and it worked! Made it to the shop to get a new battery. How many kids today could do that?

@GoldLeader Popping the clutch on a piano truck, a sharp movement for a flat battery.

I should note that yes, I usually have done battery changes myself. But this time both terminals were super full of corrosion crud, so I decided I'd rather have someone else deal with that. Also wasn't sure if it was just the battery or an additional problem with the alternator or something, thankfully it was not.

Thanks for all the well wishes for our dog. Today was not the day, the vet had my wife bring her home this morning but they were still waiting on test results. They called later when they got them. They were still bad, so now we are taking her back in tomorrow morning for the end. I'm pretty irritated with them about all this, but at least my wife and I get to spend her last night together with us at home instead of a kennel.
We've had her 11 1/2 years, and she was 3-4 at her rescue age, so she has had a good run and very comfy life.

@SlidellMan Oh, I totally have experienced that too. One of our previous dogs was a German Shepherd. The hips were starting to go. Put rug runners all through the wood floors so he wouldn't slip. However what the final ending was because he got mouth cancer. Amazing dog.
As George Carlin said in one of his bits, "Life is a series of dogs."

Our dog has been at the vet for 2 days. She will probably not come home tomorrow. Everything sucks.
However, she was immortalized a few years ago thanks to @frankodragon
