Randy was out all morning and there wasn&#8217;t really anything else going on, so I did a bit more research on my taxes, and then spent most of the day pumping out Vine reviews to get my percentage back up. I&#8217;ve been seriously slacking, so I&#8217;ve got a lot of ground to cover to keep this thing going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The morning went by super fast, and I took a late lunch to grab a <em>Minecraft<\/em> Big Mac meal from McDonald&#8217;s. Then the afternoon was more of the same quiet until quitting time. Julie called to chat for a while on the drive home, and then Summer was hungry when I finally got back into town, so the two of us went to La Huerta to share some nachos and then sat at home and talked for quite a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I took Muad&#8217;Dib out for a run just before it got dark, and I think he may have reached a high speed the way he was tearing through the yards on our downhill run. My parents got tickets ahead to see <em>The Chosen<\/em>, so we continued on through our route to get home. It was a quick evening to get everyone settled down, and then I spent the remainder of the night finalizing my taxes. I&#8217;ll review the actual forms tomorrow to check for errors, but I think they&#8217;re probably done well enough. I guess there&#8217;s always the chance that Ol&#8217; Donnie will axe the IRS, so it may not matter anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Remove yourself.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was pretty hungry as I got into North Little Rock this morning, so I decided to stop by the donut shop [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[96,29,66,4,95,42,59,71,27],"class_list":["post-8574","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-dog","tag-family","tag-frustration","tag-lessons","tag-onewheel","tag-pets","tag-politics","tag-sad","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8574","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8574"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8574\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8575,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8574\/revisions\/8575"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
