November 16th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done, again, the lungs are still giving me fits and that takes away a lot of energy…I did watch the Lions win even thought hey were trying to give the game away all afternoon…and, I won’t be climbing on the bandwagon for them any time soon…I know them too well after all these years…slept okay but feel a little crappy this morning and I know why that is…will be doing something about that all week….not really sore anywhere so I am going to try not taking anything before the bike ride and just see what happens….I did take a nice long one yesterday and it felt good but I’m not sure if I’ll do that again today…maybe if it gets sunny later….not much to do today…going to just do the normal routine and get back to working out in a while…want one more cup of coffee first…more later…

November 15th

Well…running late this morning since I didn’t get up until late….late for me that is…slept all the way til 7….but, I did sleep okay so that is something….didn’t get anything done but the bike ride and today looks much the same…it is already almost 50 so I can get out on the bike as soon as this one is done….my lungs were getting better yesterday but this morning I’m not sure…have been coughing again but not as bad as yesterday so I guess that’s progress…and I’m not sore anywhere today so that is weird…but, I took ibuprofen anyway to make sure the bike ride doesn’t make me sore…I was going to come back yesterday to do one on Paris but I am having problems making sense of that pure evil…maybe later today…not much to do today…bike ride now so I can see the F1 race at 10:30 and maybe some cleaning…but, I say that every day so maybe not…more later…

November 14th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…have been coughing like crazy and it is taking a lot out of me…but, it seems to be a little better this morning so maybe there is hope that it will continue to get better…slept okay last night and feel okay this morning…still have the back hanging up and I need to crack it before I get on the bike….looks like I will need to wait a while since it is only 32 out and I really don’t want to get that cold….it looks like a nice day for a ride with the wind almost calm and no clouds in the sky so maybe I can get out when it’s around 42…..not much to do today…I may clean a little if I feel better and I do need to come back here to do one on the crap that went on in Paris yesterday….more later…

Have been trying to remember…

Well…at pool on wed, Tom and I were trying to remember the name of the people who owned a gas station/bait shop that used to be right next to the bar where we shoot…and, I think I have it…Gilmore’s….pretty sure that’s what it was…I do remember the gas brand was a strange one…White Rose Gas…so maybe that’s it…I can remember pulling in there and getting about 8 gallons of gas for two bucks….and that was before self serve….

November 13th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I got a lot done but paid for it…have been eating antihistamines like candy and still feel like crap…slept okay last night and feel okay today but I am grumpy since I can’t ride again today…the wind is just too damn high to go out and get any flow going…I am going to try to get out this aft if the winds go down since I do need the exercise….I do need to take some ibuprofen again since everything hurts again and I think it is from standing so long and using new muscles yesterday…but, today I really don’t have anything to do so I think I may make this a veg day and just watch some sports…I think my chopstick fix of the leak in the car is working since it didn’t leak at all yesterday with all the rain and running errands…..not much to do today….going to just have coffee and take it easy for a little while and then get on the weight machine for a hour but that will be about it…things have gotten back to normal around here and I think I just want to enjoy that for a while….more later…

November 12th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool so that was cool…and they came and finished my bathroom ceiling so that makes things easier in the morning….it was so nice that I had the top down in short sleeves on the way out and back but today is just ugly out there and it looks like no bike ride today…I have a lot of work to do around here so that works out pretty well…have had cramps in my right big toe for a couple of days now and that is kind of weird…I think I’m clenching it on the bike and will have to remember to relax when I go out…it is nice to have everything back to normal around here and it will be a relaxing day today…I hope….still need to take some ibuprofen this morning since my forearms are sore for some reason and it will probably help my back, too…not much to do today…just work around here, laundry and cleaning…and I need to finish off the leftovers so I can cook again…more later…

Oh, one last thing, happy birthday to Neil Young…70 frickin years old today…wow….

November 11th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and the nice lunch with T helped the rest of it…slept crappy again last night and feel it today…and, the time out with G didn’t help…and not getting on the bike while I was waiting for the idiots to come and finish the bathroom didn’t help either….they did promise that they will come this morning so we’ll see if that happens…my back has been really sore the past few days and I haven’t been able to get it to crack like normal…it even hurts on the bike which spikes every time I use my right leg….bitch, bitch, bitch….I am grumpy with my life being disrupted for the past two weeks..but, I did get a nice new coffee mug from T yesterday and that makes me smile a bit…the thing is huge and red since it is a Salvation Army mug so I guess I’ll have to fill it half way….not much to do today…pool of course and then I’ll have to clean my bathroom but I think I’ll let that wait til tomorrow…more later….

Some musings…or bitching…

Well…another day goes by and they still didn’t come to fix my bathroom so I had to go to the office to bitch…maybe they’ll come tomorrow…I am starting to get a little pissed about this whole ordeal and the disruption it is having on my life…..I was going to talk about the repub debate tonight but I am so bored with all the hate and ignorance that I won’t watch this one….I’ll let other people that get paid to do it watch it and I’ll just comment on the analysis tomorrow….it was a nice lunch with T today but I didn’t shoot pool…Tom had to reschedule and that worked out okay since it gave me time to go to the office and bitch….I did get the top down on the car and it was really quite nice….might be able to do that again tomorrow but then the weather is going to go to hell so I won’t be on  the bike or have the top down until next week….okay…that’s about enough…I know there’s not really any content here but you see that sometimes….

November 10th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but this one is going to be different….my internet is going to be down periodically for the next three days so there may not be as much content added as would be usual…this goes with the guys not coming to finish my bathroom ceiling yesterday and I am starting to get really annoyed about that…I have work to do around here and can’t do that with people coming in and out…aaargh….I mean, how long should it take to replace a 2×4 foot piece of drywall?  Going to bitch to the office here if it’s not done today….I would like to get the damn thing cleaned and be able to put my stuff back out….slept okay last night and had some strange, recurring dreams that are boring me…I do have lunch with T to look forward to along with pool today but I don’t think I’ll have enough time to get a bike ride in and shower  before that…so it looks like I’ll be off the bike today…damn….more later….

November 9th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…I think I’m going to stop feeling bad about that….I did get to watch a  lot of sports so that was cool…and I got a nice bike ride in so I guess the day wasn’t a total waste….feel really crappy this morning and I think it’s from not eating enough yesterday…damn…not sure how I fix that…I know…eat more…but that’s harder than it looks….slept okay and had more Miata dreams of not being able to find where I parked it…not sure what that is about either….that’s not even a fear of mine…wonder if it’s literally about losing it? Hmmm….not too sore today and I think the bug might be breaking since I am coughing less this morning but I still feel crappy so maybe not….not much to do today…I hope they finish the damn bathroom today since it is so fricking annoying prepping for the work every day….I think I’ll take it easy and just feel better….more later….
