Well…I still feel pretty crappy for another day and I know now that it is a bug…but that doesn’t help…maybe I’ll take the day off today and just veg to try to get over it…but it is going to be such a nice day that I may want to take a drive in the car…I did get the grocery shopping done and made a pork loin in the slow cooker so I don’t need to cook today…okay….heading back to the couch for water and a little rest…more later…

Well…as you know I’ve been really wrapped up in the election stuff over the past few months and that has dominated my postings here and I am starting to feel that toxicity in my life so today I am going to change it up and go back to one of my favorite topics, trail weirdness, since it really was weird on the trail today. I have been feeling a little under the weather for the past week and have taken it easy on the bike..but, today, I am feeling a little better so I decided to get some sprints in and a really strange thing happened…almost 30 squirrels and chipmunks must have run out in front of me like they were on a kamikaze mission, just missing the front tire as they did…but, one of the chipmunks was not so lucky…I caught him by the tail and he flipped about a foot in the air in a really cool looking back somersault….as he flipped, he kept running so when he hit the ground he just shot off into the woods and disappeared…one of the neatest things I’ve seen in a while. Then, as I was leaving my last water stop at the park, I was just crawling along enjoying the colors when a swarm of 25 or so orange and black butterflies swooped in and flew around me for about 50 feet; circling me like they were trying to figure out what the heck I was….after about 15 seconds, they just exploded away from me and into the air…looking like something you’d see in a Disney animated film….days like this really do make me smile…

Well…it was another regular, boring day yesterday and I felt like crap all day with no energy…even skipped playing pool I was so tired…I’m sure this one is a bug but the 2 hours of sleep didn’t help at all…not much better sleep last night so I guess I’ll have to live with it for a while…sitting here and feeling about the same right now and I want to go back to the couch and get ready to muster the energy to do the grocery run this morning and then the normal stuff…so, I think I’ll do that and come back later for more of this…

Well…it was a long day with the bike ride into a 25 mile an hour wind and I am sore today…didn’t sleep for crap again last night so I think I’ll stop the melatonin that I have been trying…there were dreams but no ones that I liked so I won’t relay them here…I still have that damn lung crap going on and no energy so today is going to be a rest day unless something drastic happens to make me feel better…and today the sneezing has gotten really bad which is even more tiring…I did get the oil changed in the car yesterday and I am curious to see if it helps the oil flow to the lash adjusters and makes the tapping noise go away…we’ll see…more later…

Well…it was a bad sports day yesterday with everyone that I follow losing…but, it was a no cocktail night so I feel okay this morning…even had really strange dreams that came on after I woke up at 4…I’m not sure if I’m ready to have the weather turn cold since, as you know, I wear shorts until at least Thanksgiving…but, it looks like it is going to be nice for the rest of the week starting tomorrow…I do have some things to do today starting with an oil change for the car…should be pretty easy since the Miata is rear wheel drive and has more room under the hood…and, I will get to some more political ones later in the day if the oil change goes easy…but I do need to work out and get a ride in since I skipped yesterday…

Well…didn’t get to a second one yesterday and I’m not sure why…I have been feeling a little under the weather for a couple of days and I’m not sure if it is allergies or a cold…I do know I have been coughing like crazy since yesterday and I can feel that there is congestion in my lungs…so, I may take the day of from riding today and just kind of rest…have been having this weird dream lately where I’m at a huge banquet but by the time I get ready to eat, all the food is gone…not sure what the heck that means but at least I’m dreaming again….I did get the BTN back yesterday but I kind of wish I didn’t…Michigan looked like crap last night and I’m not sure how many more of the games I will watch…I do need to clean today but I am not sure I’m going to do that, either…I may just do a total veg and see how I feel later…and I will try to get back here for one more at least but the F1 race is on right now and I need more coffee and to watch it…more later…

Well….it was another day yesterday and I find that I am becoming addicted to the news shows again…it has been a couple of years since I’ve really watched them and it might be a function of the election or that there is just not anything else on…but, today should be different with lots of sports to see and maybe one of the kids coming into town to hang out for a while. Slept okay last night without melatonin so maybe it doesn’t work for me either…couldn’t see the Michigan game last week since it was on BTN and the idiots at Dish are pulling another AMC on us…I can’t wait to find a job and buy a house so I can dump it and get back to cable…not much to do today…F1 qualifying is on in a couple of minutes and then out on the bike before it starts to rain again…no cooking today since I made shrimp fettucine yesterday and the leftovers are calling my name…I wonder if it would be good for breakfast? More later…

Well…it was a long day yesterday with the allergies really flaring up and I feel miserable…I did have dreams last night but they involved laundry and nothing else…even my dreams are getting boring and that is not a good thing…I think I may have slept okay but I still feel run down so it will be an easy day for me….I do need to keep up the cleaning and make some food but that will be about it…and do a couple more of these…but, right now I need to try to get moving…more later….

Well…it was a day yesterday…man, I’m getting repetitive on the first sentence…so, let’s try something different…the day was a bore? the day was the most exciting thing I’ve ever witnessed? Nope, none of that works so I guess I’ll just get into it…it was cold sitting outside at the coffee shop to the point that I skipped the last paper and came back here in the warm to read it…and it looks like today is even colder so it may be an indoor morning…and at 40 degrees, I’m not sure that I’ll even put the top down….I just loved the Mitt video from a couple of days back…and I can’t wait to see what effect it has on the polls…okay, no politics here…it was a no cocktail night so I have lots of energy and I think I’ll take the rest of the week off to continue to feel okay…might make for boring nights but I have to think about the bigger picture…not much to do today….I am going to continue the cleaning streak around here and start getting rid of stuff that I don’t need…might even make a run out to Kohl’s to see if I can get some clearance stuff…

Well…it was another in a long line of days yesterday but I finally did get some cleaning done around here so I feel good about that..and, I met up with G for a couple and got to drive the car with the top down in the dark which was just a bonus…and I think I slept okay but I am still tired or worn out or something…but, the pain in my back is much better so I think I’ll take that one as a win…and I can’t really think of anything else to say right now so I won’t say it…back later for more…
