Well…it has been another day and I have been trying to take the boredom and use it for good, not evil, and I have had some success today…I did get the bathroom cleaned and read some…then succumbed to watching a little tv…and I am now sitting here waiting for it to be cocktail time with the tv on in the background…should have Pandora on, I guess, but I listened to that for a few hours today and I am a little bored with it…there’s that word again…and I am going to have to figure out how to get through the weekend without spending any money again…I never understood how much I would miss riding the bike with the snow today and the trails being covered…okay…even I am bored with this one so I’m going to go and do something else…

February 24th
Well…this is going to be a short one…it was a cocktail night last night and I feel okay but not too lucid at the moment so I’m not going to force it…I am a little disappointed that the Wings lost last night but I can’t even work up any outrage about that…and there were no dreams or anything last night…I just feel so bland this morning and the snow overnight doesn’t help…won’t be able to get out on the bike for about a week until the snow melts and that is quite disappointing…so, on that note, I am going to go back to the couch and veg for a while……
Okay…I’m back for a few after reading and getting some coffee in me…did have to go out and clean off the car so I could move it for the plows but I did it in shorts so that woke me up some…need to do that again in a few minutes since it is still snowing and I am fighting the depression that comes with seeing all the white stuff…I had hoped we could get to March without a big storm but it is Michigan, after all, and this is to be expected…so, still being cashless, it looks like a veg weekend and staying in for me but that is okay…I’m starting to get used to the low-key days that brings me…I will be back for more politics later but I do have to clean the bathroom first…
February 23rd
Well…another night of boredom and no cocktails which makes it four in a row but I think I’ve reached the point of no return in feeling better for it….with the conserve cash mode in full swing, I haven’t even started the car in three days and it is going to smoke like crazy this morning…I do have to go out to get groceries but since I have to use the debit card, there are only 4 things on the list…and one them is cocktail fixing for the Wings game tonight…can’t deprive myself completely even thought I should…I did get the kitchen cleaned yesterday even though I was going to do the bathroom….it was just one of those things where you get started on a small thing and it explodes into a complete overhaul….so, today will be the same with the bathroom since I won’t be able to get out on the bike with the snow storm coming…other than that, not much to do today….I will be back for more later even though I’m ahead….there is so much political nonsense going on that I have to comment…
Okay…so I was wrong…there are things to do today…yay!….the twin 150’s from Daytona are on this aft and then there is a Wings game later…oh, I mentioned that above, didn’t I? So sue me….not really….still getting letters from the record companies…
February 22nd
Well…it was kind of a long day yesterday with not going out except to ride the bike…and the Wings lost last night so that put a damper on any enthusiasm I may have had for the evening…there were dreams that I don’t remember again so that is a little frustrating but I guess I’ll live through it…it was a no cocktail night for the third in a row and my liver is thanking me as I sit here feeling okay…or kind of okay…not sure if I can feel really okay anymore but I guess I’ll keep trying…it’s another broke day for me so no coffee out but I am going to make it here since it does help motivate me for the workout and bike ride….not much to do today…I was going to clean yesterday but I decided to read instead…that was T’s suggestion and I thank her for it…but I do need to do the bathroom today so that will be on the agenda…and I have an invasion of spiders that need to be taken care of so that will be a project…I will be back for one later but I haven’t decided on a topic yet so that will have to be a surprise….
February 21st
Well…it was a day yesterday and had fun going out for a couple with G…but it was a no cocktail night so I feel okay today….I did have weird dreams last night but they were so jumbled that I can’t make sense of them…it did include driving semi trucks in a city along with factories that didn’t make anything….that would have been a story to remember…it looks like this is going to be a hermit week since there is no gas in the car or money in my pocket but that’s okay…the liver can use the rest and I can use the exercise of doing double rides….the weather looks like it is going to cooperate for the next two days too….not much to do today…I really am going to clean today but that will be about it….and I did get caught up so I only need to do one more of these today…and it will be a good one…I’m due…more later…
February 20th
Well…it was a day yesterday with the Wings winning again but I didn’t do much except kind of veg here…it’s the no cash thing raring it’s ugly head again and that is going to mean no coffee again this morning so the topics may be a little limited with only the online papers to read…it was a cocktail night last night so I feel a little slow today but I am trying to get going….no dreams to speak of and I am dreading looking at the phone…I may have sent a couple of texts that I will regret this morning…I do need to work on the self control….oh, well…I hope T lets it go but I haven’t heard from her this morning so It may have been weird….not much to do today…just going to clean and get a few other things done around here…I will get caught up later today but right now I’m going to just veg for a few….more later…
February 19th
Well…sitting here waiting for the car to thaw so I thought I’d get one out early for a change…it was a normal day yesterday…didn’t do much but watch the races and Michigan beat Ohio State last night so that was pretty cool…it was a cocktail night so I don’t feel that hot this morning but that is to be expected…the coffee will help in a few minutes and I am going to take it easy all day today since I’m broke and can’t afford to do anything…I do have some pork ribs to cook so that will be something and the Wings are playing early so that will be cool, too…I’m not going to promise that I will be back later….you know how it goes on the weekends…
February 18th
Well…running really late today and that just compounds the fact that I didn’t get to a second one yesterday…I have an excuse…not a good one but it’s the only one I have so I’ll use it…I had lunch with T that included beer and then out with the twins and there was a nap in there, too, so I just didn’t get to it…I’ll try to be better today since I don’t have much to do today…I even put the paper down to get to this one…and, if you know me, that is like stopping breathing….so, this one is going to be short…the lunch with T was so much fun and I came away with my chest hurting I laughed so much..it always brightens my day…oh, one last thing for now…as you know, I’ve been having problems with the shifters on the bike, cleaning and cleaning them to get the 4-5 shift to work…yesterday I had a head slap moment and made a quarter turn adjustment to the cable and it fixed it….don’t know how I forgot that the damn thing is adjustable…I marvel at my denseness at times…more later…
February 17th
Well…it was a nice day yesterday and I got out on the bike for the first time in more than a week and came back really muddy but it was still nice to get out…I did have really weird dreams that included standardized tests that said I was not qualified to do anything….which is kind of how I feel these days…but, I do have lunch with T today which is making me smile and the twins are up for cocktails this weekend which will give me something to do instead of sitting here and worrying about money…I would say not much to do today but that wouldn’t be true so I won’t…..I will be back for more later..things are starting to heat up in politics and that is making me smile, too…
February 16th
Well…if you look down, you’ll see that I did finish up the placeholder from last night so look down…it’s something that everyone should know about…it was a good day yesterday with finally starting to get my profile up on Linkedin and that led to a call from my bother where we argued about politics for two hours…kind of wearing….but I slept okay last night and, as I said, it was a no cocktail night so I am somewhat lucid this morning…I did just look outside and it really foggy and cool looking but it’s not warm enough yet to get the bike out…later today, though, and I am really excited at the possibility….there were dreams that included my 77 Chrysler again but that is about all I remember about it…not much to do today…I do have the grocery run today and maybe even going out to Biggby’s for coffee but I tried yesterday and they were closed…who closes in the middle of the week? I will have more later since the placeholder doesn’t count for today…and I do have a comment on the nonsense being perpetrated on women by the repubs in Virginia…
