I love sushi, but go for the vegetarian-friendly sushi.

You mean the stuff made out of shark? I understand they're VERY friendly toward vegetarians!

Had a friend once who said he wouldn't take anyone fishing who liked sushi. He was afraid they'd eat all the bait.

On a more serious note, eating shark is bad. Really bad. Shark populations are declining quite rapidly due to overfishing and human impacts, with estimates being shown in the 100 million sharks per year. This is very bad for sharks, but also the ecosystem in general.

Also, shark finning is something that is ridiculously horrible and should never be supported.

I haven't been offshore fishing in ages.
But we were fishing for King fish, Cobia, Dolphin (not the Flipper sort) and Red Snapper. Shark was not taken.

5 and nearly 3/4 today. 16.39 for the week so far.

Check may not happen today because Monday was a Holliday for SOME people.
Going to go ask about it and if not going to the post office and then the box at the front of the neighborhood and then home.

Starting to think I have a black cloud overhead. Yesterday I found out by accident that the young lady who scheduled my second cataract surgery, put the wrong date on my surgery packet. Based on the dates they gave us we scheduled DW's chemo infusions, which once started are locked in for 9 weeks. Then the young lady who had made the mistake got an attitude, with me about fixing the problem. In the end, to her credit she changed their schedule around to make it work. Then I got to my Optometrist for the final check on the right eye, and find out the domino effect had screwed up my follow up appointments with him. They managed to work things around, and then I get a text from the pharmacy that my insurance has declined payment on the second round of drops needed for the surgery because it hasn't been thirty days since the last refill. Thirty more minutes on the phone with them, and they finely approved. When I get to the pharmacy I find out they only have 2 of the 3 drops I need in stock. More phone calls and they find another pharmacy 20 mins away that has it in stock. With all my problems solved I hurry home to meet a roofing contractor who was supposed to be coming out to do an estimate. He doesn't show, doesn't call, doesn't answer his phone. Perfect end to a crappy day!

Yikes, sorry to hear about all that. Hope things start looking up!

And to help you, here are a few funny gifs...

I woke up in a pretty bad mood. I feel like a rat running on a wheel. I couldn't even wear the happy Orange NATO on my Blue Expedition. Instead it's a plain black NATO.

4.55 hours today and for the week so far 21.30.
Post Office and then the box at the front of the neighborhood and then home.
