A few years back someone by the name of Floyd inadvertently gave my cell number to his insurance agent. And then that domino’ed into my number getting on every insurance company’s call list.
I’ve tried being nice to them, tried asking them to put me on their DO NOT call list. I’ve tried being mean, tried being funny, tried all sorts of things to get them to just stop. I even told them for a while that Floyd was dead and didn’t need insurance anymore.
Shown here is the tcr! shipping distribution hub of Illinois. Yep, I’m pretty low-tech here. December issue is going out to subscribers tonight along with some single issues from last month.
The current issue is by far my best work. It took me almost a year to find a groove with the designs and layouts but the photos are stellar and the writing superb. Of course.
If you send me your address, I may send you a free copy in the mail. Maybe. I don’t like commitments so keep that in mind.
Unsolicited customer testimonial: “I’ve ordered neat stuff from the tcr! shipping distribution hub. Service was excellent, shipping was speedy, stuff arrived undamaged and AWESOME”.
An excellent #protip. I love when good stuff happens for my friends. ❤️
One time my friend texted me and she was like “I wasn’t sure if I should say anything about my good news because I know you’re having a tough time right now…” And I was like “never worry about that, I always want to hear your good news,” because actually it cheered me right up.
Yep. Once I had moved a couple steps above being a self-centered jerk, hearing another’s good news started to lift me up when I was down. Gave me just a little more hope and the like.
I’ve always heard that pride is a bad thing but I sure do take a lot of pride in what others around me are doing.
I would guess there’s been 5-10 relationships I’ve had with people where I’ve written them off. And I’m not talking about small relationships either. These are like personal relationships that have lasted for years.
And I wrote these people off because I had hurt them or they had hurt me and then it just went back-and-forth like some fucked up game of spiteful volleyball.
Wow! It’s scary how much our minds work alike! I’ve always considered myself a “runner”…from 3 marriages, family and friends who have “done me wrong”. You have stated it so much more eloquently than I, but basically the same emotion and consequence. I want you to know I am actually learning “stuff” from you and want to thank you! I enjoy how your quirky mind works! And it sounds like Sara is VERY good for you! ♥️
I’m glad that my words are helping you in your journeys. I think that’s a big part of why we’re here. Not on Facebook, but in the bigger sense. And yep, Sara makes me a better person. :)
That’s cool you embrace that Travis! Our partners and other frienship relationships should bring out the best version of ourselves. I hope and pray that when the cosmos align 😊, I will find that relationship too.
Thank you so much for that Travis! You’re writings, pieces are wonderful. Writing has served a great purpose in my life as well. Thank you again! My best to Sarah! !
Email (besides work) has always been more about personal correspondence akin to the letters I used to write to my peeps in the 80s and 90s. Believe it or not, letters from SGC in Wichita were one of the highlights of going to visit my dad (PGC) after my parents divorced.

Looks like Floyd is looking to expand his doctoral operations out west 🤔
