I have the head time for how I sound. I actually don't know how I sound, but inside my head, I sound terrible. No, you sound a little bit like me. Me too. Okay. I'm a little nasely. Yeah. I would like to start this off with a compliment and say both of you look fantastic this morning. Oh, thank you. You're just saying it. I'm still in my PJs, to be honest.

0:38.7

You don't want. Pants aren't required. Well, I didn't say anything about pants. I meant the hoodie, but, you know. Anyway. Yeah, I've been sick. Sounds like Jimmy, you've been kind of sick the last couple days as well. Yeah. I think I'm on the other side of it, but it's still, you know, lingering in my head,

0:39.5

which is weird.

0:39.1

I think I might have even said last week that I don't get sick very often. Did I say that last time? Maybe. I've heard you say that. I think I did. But I don't remember the last time I got like a cold sick, you know, of any kind. it's been a really, really long time, and I found over the last couple days

0:56.4

that I am not good at it.

0:57.7

Like, I'm... sick, you know, of any kind. It's been a really, really long time, and I found over the last couple days that I am not good at it.

0:57.8

Like, I'm, it hits me hard.

1:01.6

Jenny is, I mean, women in general are just amazingly tough and can be sick and still do all

1:07.0

the stuff that they normally do and maybe more.

1:10.1

She does that because she gets, you know, normal people sickness and stuff all the stuff that they normally do and maybe more. She does that because she gets,

1:11.4

you know, normal people sickness and stuff all the time just keeps on going, doesn't complain

1:16.9

about it. And me, I'm like a little baby. My head hurts. I'm going to lay down. So, anyway,

1:24.3

apologies to the world for me being how I am when I'm sick. Mm-hmm. But I think it's getting better. No, I'm definitely, I'm coming out of it. I started getting sick right after we talked last week and through Thanksgiving and everything. But I feel fine now. And I just ignore it. I just do my best to pretend there's nothing wrong. That's what I do usually. Yeah, I try, but I'm not good at that either.

1:45.8

You guys both hosted for Thanksgiving, and I want to hear how that went.

1:49.1

Oh, it went good.

1:50.4

It weren't good.

1:51.6

I said, my niece and nephews now are in their 20s.

1:56.5

And so when we went around the table, what we're thankful for?

1:59.4

I said, I'm thankful that everybody decided to drive up to see their weird uncle. Because nobody, I could tell nobody wants to be, and they all laughed. They're like, no, we want to be. Because it's, I got, I prepared the leather shop for my nieces, my niece and nephews, because I know all they want to do is, like, hit the vape pen and drink. So I set up the chairs and everything and sure as I guessed, like, where are the kids? Oh, they're all up in the leather shop. You know, they go up there with a six pack of beers and doing their thing. They had fun, hiding out up there. But it was great. It was good to see my mom. My mom's 85 years old. She's going strong. She's not slowing down. And she's doing really good. And it's nice when everybody gets, everybody came up here and spent the night and the next day. It was like a mad dash to who could leave first. It's like, because it's such a, everyone's like, I got a lot of things to do today. It's a really far drive. I'm like, I know, I know. But it was fine. Everybody, everybody was out of here after breakfast. I had the whole day to myself. It was great. So here's the trick. We said we meet at noon. We eat at one. Everybody leaves at four.
