September 3rd

Well…another night out, another day of feeling crappy…but I had fun so I guess it was worth it. And the Lions won…which was weird because when I left OT, they were behind. Looks like everyone is going to be out of town for the holiday so it’s going to be a low key weekend. Michigan plays Sat so that will be something to look forward to. I did promise to get a couple of posts out today and I’m going to try to keep it…but I feel worse today than yesterday so who knows…more later…

September 2nd

Well…did win at pool last night and had a lot of fun but feel a little crappy today…have to do the grocery shopping today but don’t feel like it…maybe I’ll put it off until tomorrow….but then I won’t have any food to eat and I am trying keep my no fast food streak alive….no other plans for the day…more later…

Still feel like crap and it’s one in the aft….but I did get the grocery shopping done and it’s nice to have food in the place…that might be part of the reason I still feel bad…having a hard time getting enough food since nothing really tastes good any more…guess it’s just a phase…at least I hope so. I almost forgot this was a holiday weekend since they are all the same to someone who is not working….did finish the third book from T and need to start a new one today. Probably more later….

Just got back from the bike ride and got soaked but it wasn’t bad because it’s still warm enough…starting to feel human again but still not right…not sure what to do about it….probably just have some more ice water and take it easy for the rest of the day…

Oh, not sure if I’ll have another one today…nothing jumped out at me when I was reading the papers and the brain is still fuzzy anyway…but I’ll promise that I’ll get my butt in gear tomorrow and give you at least two, if not three…..

September 1st

Well…Here we go for another month and I hope that it will be better than the last…not really better since I can’t remember a nicer August and more trips to the beach..but that is going to change later in the week when the highs are going to only be in the 60′s. But with the coolness comes the fist Michigan game this sat and I am curious to see what the team is like this year. Not much to do today…have to get back into the fitness routine since I took the day off yesterday; I thought playing in the waves was a close approximation to the calorie burn from riding the bike so I didn’t ride…okay, let me delude myself so the guilt doesn’t come back. Might have a trip to Ada later but with Tom working now, I’m not sure….more later…

A last one for August…

Well…it’s been a pretty good August except no responses to any resumes…and that is kind of disheartening since I’m slowly going broke and I could use a job…but it is what it is and I’ll just have to figure out how to deal with it. It was really a busy day today, for me anyway…with the beach trip, to the coffee shop, drinks with K, and the a call from two of the kids….good to hear that things are going well for those two. I just finished watching “the Book of Eli” from Netflix and it was a pretty good small movie; the type that I enjoy. At least all the activity kept the boredom at bay and all I have to do is get through the next 3 hours and it will be bed time….

Hmmm….just wanted to put a cap on the summer….no more later.

August 31st

Well…last day of August and I am debating with myself what to do…I think I’ll take this day to celebrate the end of summer and go to GH… it’s supposed to be almost 90 today and then the weather starts to get crappy…down in the 60′s for highs Friday and Saturday…good for college football, though, and I’m looking forward to the start of the season…so, there won’t be another of these until later…but I’m supposed to have drinks with K later so it may not be until really later in the aft…talk amongst yourselves for a while….more later…

August 30th

Well…I’m going to get to the placekeeper later this morning but right now I’m going to read the news to look for topics that I can talk about this afternoon. Not much going on today…running a little late this morning for some reason, just can’t get started moving or thinking….so I’ll end here right now…were shooting for the record on monthly posts today so there will be at least three…more later…

August 29th

Well…it was a pretty good day yesterday but didn’t do a lot…did take the bike out to the car show on 28th street and that was fun…the computer on my bike failed, though, and I had to reset it losing the 1364 miles I’ve ridden so far this summer but that happened last year, too, so I’m not surprised. What about today…hmmm…just watched the F1 race from Spa and now I’m debating with myself whether to ride today or not…my legs have been really dead the past couple of days and could use the day off…but it’s so nice outside with no wind that I want to go. Okay…arguing with myself…is that a sign I’m going more crazy than normal? Probably, but there is no one else to argue with. Topics? Yep, have a couple but I don’t know when I’ll get to them…so, you’ll have to come back later…

Oh, not sure about Sunday Funday yet since K doesn’t get back from Cali until later in the day…but I’m supposed to meet up with C if he gets back into town…we’ll see…

August 28th

Well…it’s damn loud here this morning with the church behind me having some event that has had music blaring since 6:45 am….how do they get away with this stuff? It will be another day where I won’t be able to open my windows because of that crap. Yeah, I’m a little crabby this morning since I love to let the morning air in and cool this place off and now I can’t even hear my tv it’s so loud. Why don’t noise ordinances apply to churches? Another instance where religious people don’t give a damn about anyone except their particular group of followers. So, they get to have their event and I have to leave my place for the day since it is so loud. I don’t know if there will be more later…oh, might have to comment on the conversion of DC to Glen Beckistan today…

August 27th part two..

Well…had a nice lunch with T and laughed a ton again…but that’s not what I want to add this one for. Maybe it should be but I needed to comment on Glen Beck’s “world changing” rally at the Lincoln memorial tomorrow. When did crazy get to be a requirement for the leaders on the right? Who is one of the keynote speakers? Sarah Palin…I can’t even write more about this…can’t wait to see how they spin this on Fox when no one shows up? I’ll bet stock footage of other rallies like they did before to push their causes…geez..I feel dirty just writing about this…

August 27th

Well…took it a little easier last night and feel better today…I think the allergies are flaring up again and it could be the reason I’ve been quite tired lately…or the not sleeping but I should be used to that by now. Not much to do today except groceries…have to get something different to eat…way too much pork loin this week since it was on sale last week and the veggies are coming out of my ears…I think I may have to get some fast food since it’s been a couple of weeks since I last had some…maybe Taco Bell…Oh, I may have lunch with T today if it works out and that would be fun to start the weekend. I should have some topics later today or I’ll continue with the afternoon portion of the boring day in the life of me…more later…
