Yep

At 2 AM after four hours of online chess it occurred to me that I suck at chess. Time management being in reality priority management I committed to just a few more games.

I’ve made myself into the jack of all trades, master of none paradox that inevitably leads to half-butt solutions in most things. The saying should be jackass of all trades (especially in chess).

(Me strumming guitar and singing)

Henry: Did you write that song Dad?

Me: Yes. Yes I did. I wrote most of the songs you hear me singing.

Henry: Really? Wow! Did you write that one that goes ‘Guitars and Cadillacs’?

(pause)

Me: Nope. That was Dwight Yoakam.

Henry: oh, okay. Yeah, cause that’s actually a good song.
