Well…it was an interesting day yesterday and I had lots of stuff to do so that made the day go by really quickly…went to T’s son’s graduation party and I’m glad I went…she was really happy that I came and I got the chance to meet T’s brother and hang out with her parents for a while…I now really know where she gets her oddness…but, that oddness is a good thing…then, I met up with the twins over at Rose’s for a couple…I can’t believe I’ve driven my new car over 600 miles already…I did break my glasses a couple of days back and need to go out this morning and get a couple of new pairs…was waiting for them to go on sale and they are now so I can get two for the price of one….I do have things to do today…it’s only about 8:20 and I am getting ready to get on the bike already and then, out to shoot pool this aft….I may have to use the air in the car today…it’s going to be 90…yow…more later…

Well….have been up since about 6, and that is way better than 4, so I do feel a little better today and thought I’d get this one out before I get out on the bike…want to go early before the heat and wind come up and it is just fun to be out by 8:30…nope…it’s 8:30 now so I will be a little later….I did put the top down on the car to go over for the papers this morning and that did make me smile a bit….not sure what I’m going to do today but might be hanging out with the twins for a while…I did get a pork loin in the the slow cooker at about 7 so that is something to look forward to…I hope it has some flavor since I have only been able to stomach heavily flavored foods for quite a while now….that’s about it for now….need to get on the bike and do 30….more later…
No political one…
Well…it was a day today that was almost completely gray…it should have been fun…driving the new car out to GH to look at the water with the top down with good music playing…but I feel just so flat, so lifeless that I couldn’t enjoy anything today. And, it continues now…I broke my reading glasses and now they are held together with the leftover duct tape from the old car and that is how I feel today…like I’m held together with duct tape and it could unravel at any time….I know it’s temporary but I am getting so tired of never smiling, of never getting that feeling in your chest when life is just good and you want more of it…so, tonight will be a cocktail night and I’ll lick the wounds and try to start again tomorrow….and try to live up to my potential…I know, a weird thing to say for someone my age…
June 8th
Well…it was a day yesterday with getting the new speakers for the car and new wipers….that completed what I wanted to do for it right now so now all I have to do is drive it….slept okay last night but I am still worn out so it will be a slow day today…I do need to figure out what to do so I am going to go back to the couch and drink some water…not really feeling it right now…there is something that is gnawing on me but I haven’t figured it out yet so I need to do some mulling….
June 7th
Well…another night of 4 hours of sleep and this is getting to be annoying…it’s a little after 5 and I don’t have anything to do so I thought I’d just sit here an think for a while…I did have a dream last night that was just a short snippet but it involved lightning and was kind of scary….but, other than that, nothing, and that is normally how it works when I’m not sleeping…I may have to go with the otc sleeping pills again for a while since I am exhausted and just can’t keep this up…It was a good day yesterday with figuring out the headrest speakers on the car but now I have to decide what to do about them…I may go out and look for some new ones today but it is Thursday and grocery run day so I may have to wait until tomorrow…although, I was planning on making a GH run tomorrow with the top down so I may have to re think….I will be back with a political one later in the morning since I’m up so early….more later…
Okay…just a little update on the happenings of the morning…I decided to go out and look at speakers since the rattle behind my ear was starting to really annoy me and found a set at Best Buy for half price…only 28 bucks for a 4 inch two way pair that are rated at 200 watts….and it took me about 2 minutes to install them…they barely fit, though, and I may take it back apart and cut the mounting tabs off them since they are not necessary…with those speakers, the car is now complete and I can run the stereo as loud as I want…when you get it up there now the whole seat vibrates with the bass and it feels really cool….
June 6th
Well…it was a long night last night with no sleep at all…have been up since 4 and with this being two days in a row of this, I am really worn out today…and disappointed about the Wisconsin election yesterday…but, life goes on and I need to get over it…another example of the toxic damage that unlimited money is doing to the country…but, that’s not for here….I was going to go out and hit some golf balls today but I’m not sure…I think I’ll just play it by ear today…I do need to get some different sunscreen for the car…maybe some of the spray on clear stuff….more later….
Okay…just found out a cool thing about my car…one of the speakers in the headrest is going bad and I thought it was going to be a huge project to replace it…well…it has a zipper that you unzip to get to the speakers and you can take them out in about 30 seconds…so, I’m going to look for speakers this week and get it replaced…yay…
Another part two….
Well….it has been a busy morning with the normal workout and bike ride but then I had to take the title for the old car out to the boneyard that took it…a really nice drive with the top down and then got a pleasant surprise of $100 bucks they paid me for the wreck…I was just shocked but really happy to get the extra cash….and I did get a photo of the car that I didn’t get at the wreck so that was cool, too….and I am really getting to like my new car more and more as I drive it…put premium in it (like I’m supposed to) and it seems much happier…so I am, too….
June 5th
Well…it was a long one yesterday and I feel a little under the weather today…I really do think it’s allergies since I have been sneezing and coughing like crazy….I did lose at pool yesterday but it was a hard fought battle so I feel okay about it….I had weird dreams but nothing that I can share…since I don’t remember it….my neck is hurting again and I can barely move it and it is getting to be a real pain since it’s been a few weeks now and I’m not sure what the problem is…okay…going back to the couch for a few…
A funny thing…
Well..I was going to talk about trail weirdness today but I forgot what it was so I won’t do that one….there was a strange thing that happened today with the car….a switch flipped and it was my car…you know how that goes….at least I hope you do….it was someone else’s car that I had bought…but today, it turned into my car and that is a good thing….yep, you know that I’m weird and this one shouldn’t have been a surprise….I did have to get two out today and tomorrow, I promise that I will have one about Wisconsin and the Venus transit across the sun…so come on back…
June 4th
Well…my site is screwed up this morning and I just lost the post I just put together…so, I have to try to remember it…not an easy thing right now….it was a cocktail night last night so I am moving a little slow today…I am thinking about putting the top down and going out for the papers and coffee…one of the guys that work here brought me some smoked salmon this morning and I am thinking about some cream cheese and a toasted bagel with the salmon….more later…
Just realized I lost a post from yesterday about Paul Krugman and I am more than a little irritated….it’s hard enough to do two of these a day without having the site conspire against me….oh, well….I did get the bagel and cream cheese and with crumbling some smoked salmon on top, I think I’ve found my new favorite food….
