Well…it was an okay day yesterday but didn’t really accomplish much…I did have weird dreams that included the end of the world and warring factions that were trying to carve out their niches…and I seem to remember food shortages and a seaside resort that was the main area of interest…it seems like it was a long one, too, but I’m already losing it so maybe not….I did sleep okay and feel pretty good this morning with it being a no cocktail night..I think I’m going to do that for the rest of the week and cut down on the calories…I think I may be sensitive to the new sunscreen since I’m broken out where I use it…oh, well…I do have something to do today…was checking out the car yesterday and found that it really needs to have the coolant changed…I don’t think I’ve ever seen coolant that looks like black sludge…looks like it has never been changed…so I’ll get that done this morning after coffee…more later…

It’s been weird…
Well…it has been a weird couple of days and I have the recurring fear that I might be running out of things to say…politics is not very interesting and my life has devolved into a bore with not having anyone to hang out with any more…so, what do I talk about now? Or, what do I do now? Questions, questions…and I don’t have any answers..one thing did just strike me as I sit here and try…why is ole Mitt tied with Obama in the polls when all he is proposing is exactly what drove the country off the road a few years ago? Nothing at all new…just more tax cuts for the rich and more safety net cuts for the rest of us…and yet, people are buying this nonsense…the more I drive my new car, the more I like it…and I’m even starting to get used to the idea that I can’t carry anything in it…I am going to let T drive it in the near future…she being a Fiat girl and all…she may appreciate it…we did have a nice lunch today but I am a little worried about her pace…but, that’s not my job anymore so I’ll have to let that go…I could do a spandex alert from the trail today…do these guys ever look in the mirror before they go out on their bikes? If they did, they would slink back and change I’m sure…no one over 250 lbs should ever wear it, especially when half of that weight is in their guts…okay…I’m about finished for now…at least I got a second one out…
June 25th
Well…it was a day yesterday and I did a total veg out watching races and just hanging out…didn’t even drive the car I was so into the whole idea of doing nothing…I did cook a little but didn’t eat much so I feel a little low on energy today…and I didn’t come back for another one…just forgot and didn’t have anything to say anyway but I do need to get caught up today so I will come back for a couple more later…not much to do today…I do have lunch with T today and I have to get a haircut since I am looking really shaggy…that’s enough for now….
June 24th
Well…it was a long day yesterday and it was good to see K for a while…and I did stay up to watch the Joe Walsh special on CMT which I thought was going to be strange and it did look like some of the people he played with had no clue who he was…but, it was still good to see Joe…I’m going to keep this one short right now since there are some storms coming and I want to get the bike ride in before it rains…back later for more…
June 23rd
Well…it was another long night last night and it is getting really old…feel pretty crappy today and not really motivated to do this right now…so I won’t…be back in a little while to do more…okay, I’m back after coffee and the papers and feel much better…can’t wait to get out on the bike after F1 qualifying since there is no wind this morning and those days are really rare…and it is only 61 degrees right now so that will make it even better…it was a pain in the ass yesterday with all of the tree cutting going on around here…I had just washed and waxed the car and it was coated with sawdust that I had to try to wipe off but the new wax seems to attract dust…I was kind of hoping that it would rain last night to clean it off but it looks like I may just have to go back and wash it again…not much to do today…I may meet up with K later to hang out or just take a drive in the car….I did join MOMM yesterday…(Miata owners of Mid Michigan) and it may be cool to hang out with others that have the Miata bug….
June 22nd
Well…it was a day yesterday but I am a little confused that I didn’t sleep even after all of the activity…oh, well…I did skip working out and the bike ride yesterday so the guilt has kicked in and I will make sure that I will do that this morning…I am kind of looking forward to getting back into the routine today and cooking some chicken with the new spices I got yesterday…and fresh veggies that I got from C….and I’ll come back here for more later but I am a little foggy today and I need to clear the fog before I can think as well as I need to….
Okay…it’s after lunch and I feel much better so I thought I’d relate some trail weirdness that happened today…first, there were the huge groups of turkeys that were just strolling across the trail like they had nothing better to do…then, I was struck in the chest by a frickin dove that was startled when I came by…could that be a dove bomber? I know, really bad pun….
Just a little more…
Well…it was a long day today with the trip to Mt. P today and I got a pleasant surprise that the mileage on the car is around 30 on the highway…which I really wasn’t expecting since it is not built to be a highway cruiser…and it is nice to have a car that I don’t have to think about when I go somewhere….and I did have to the top down the whole way but did get a little wet north with the rain that was falling for the first 30 miles or so coming back…had a lot of fun and found out a bunch of stuff today and it was good to see C and Ren…oh, and D, too….so, I’m sure you’ve guessed that this is just kind of a filler for the day but I will be back tomorrow with at least three good ones…I’m going to have G and t’s tonight so I should feel okay in the morning….I hope there will be sleep tonight since I’ve been up since 4:30 and driving over 200 miles is kind of wearing….we’ll see…
June 21st
Well…another night of no sleep and up at 5:30 and this is getting tiring….not going to say much right now but I do have a road trip to do to Mt. P today….so, I may only do a couple of these….I used to think it was kind of magical to be up at this time of the day but now I just think it’s a pain in the ass….when did sleeping become optional? I’m waiting for the damn dish to reset but I’m done for now…I’ll be back later for more but right now I need to do something else…
Trying to catch up…
Well…it’s been a day of nothing really…I do have to at least try to get caught up…there was a weird happening last night…I saw a spot on CMT (country music television) advertising for a show this weekend that has Joe Walsh doing songs with country stars…how weird is that? I am going to stay up and watch that one just to see how strange it is…I wonder if he’ll do a country version of “Funk 49”? That would be just too weird…but not as weird as me watching CMT…what else? Hmmm….it’s first day of summer…haven’t mentioned that…even though I have the new car, the perfect one for summer, I still miss hanging around with my friends…now I’m down to Tom basically and never thought it would happen like this…and I just can’t get motivated to do more to find more of them…there are days that I don’t talk to anyone anymore and that is something…not sure what but it is something…not much else to talk about right now so I won’t…I may have to come back later to another one just to do what the title says….
June 20th
Well…it was a little surprising yesterday so I didn’t come back for another one…as you saw…I did go out and shoot pool with Tom and won in a championship game and that was the surprise…was supposed to go to Mt P but that didn’t pan out so I shot pool instead…there were no dreams again last night and I am getting concerned that it is connected to my not sleeping…not much to do today…it looks like another scorcher today and I’ll probably just lay low here and veg today…after coffee and the papers, of course..and I will come back for two more today since I am gradually losing the battle with staying current…
