I Officially Feel Old

So as I sat down to write today's post really having no idea where it was going, my super hero wife asked me to put music on. In the kind of mood I've been in due to recent events I have been listening to Classic Rock Radio on Apple iTunes a lot lately. Now when I think of Classic Rock, I think of Led Zeppelin, Eagles, Rolling Stones, Beatles, etc... Not Guns and Roses! So by my insane reasoning if Guns and Roses is considered Classic Rock, than I am officially old! F*CK!!!!

When the hell did this happen? Yes, I know I have been married for more than 20 years. Yes I know that the hair I had on the top of my head, has now moved to my face. And yes, I have seen the size of Axel Rose recently. But come on, it seems like it was just yesterday that they were running across the stage. 

So as I mentioned on Facebook, the wife wanted me to fire up the smoker this week. 

What can I say the girl loves my cooking. So as a good gentleman does, when my baby wants me to cook I cook. Got the wings and drums defrost/brining for a few hours, pull them out and dry them off. I'll then coat them in rub and throw'em in the smoker. Let'em eat smoke for 3-4 hours, pull them out at 165 degree and air fry them up to get them crispy. Speaking of which I need to go start my fire for my smoker while I get the chicken prepped. I'll include pics of what I'm doing and how it comes out. 

Like I said, I don't know where this blog is going, maybe it's just an outlet? Maybe it helps someone? Hopefully it helps me. I don't know if anyone is actually reading these ramblings. Well, that is not entirely true. I know my super hero wife reads them, because she said it helped her understand what I am going through a little bit more. To someone who doesn't have that eternal fight going on inside their head, they just can't know. So maybe me sharing my struggle does serve a purpose. With that said, it's time to go make some chicken.....So as I sat down to write today's post really having no idea where it was going, my super hero wife asked me to put music on.
