Well…another day yesterday and there really isn’t much to say about it….didn’t ride the bike with the rain and high winds but I needed a day off anyway so I don’t really feel guilty about it…tried to be good last night with some success so I’ll feel okay to work on the car today….I do need to get the salmon drying after being in the brine for two days so it won’t be wet when it goes in the smoker….so, I better get at it so I can get out to coffee…more later…

Well… running late again today and I think I’ve figured it out…it’s the new phone…since I can get everything from the internet on it, I never even fire the computer up much anymore…but, I’ll try to do better…it was a normal day yesterday and I did get some small things done…I did get the salmon in the brines for Friday and I may have done a little too much with using both of them…but, has anyone ever complained they have too much smoked salmon? It can be frozen so that will take care of it…I do also have to do a small grocery run today and since Tom bought some Win Schulers, I have to have some too…more later…
August 15th
Well…it looks like I missed the life update yesterday and I can’t figure out how…so, I’ll have to do two of them today…it was a pretty good day yesterday…I won at pool but was not good when I got home so I am running late and feeling crappy today…Brian, who works here, just dropped of a bunch more salmon and his recipes for the brines you need for smoking…it will be fun to do that Friday when I replace the wheel bearing out at Tom’s….okay, need to get going and take a shower so I’ll stop here….more later….
August 13th
Well…I am kind of glad that the Olympics ended yesterday…I was getting really tired of watching them but felt somewhat obligated since they are only every 4 years…so, it was a wasted day yesterday and I didn’t do much…today looks to be mostly the same but I do have some errands to run…can’t get motivated right now, though, so I think I’ll try to get in the shower and get out to read the papers and have some coffee…more later…
August 12th
Well…running really late today since I decided to get out on the bike first…and it was a good idea…I’m feeling so much better after sweating out the toxins…it was another bore of a day yesterday with nothing but races and Olympics and I am getting really tired of it…but, what can you do? I did see a kite eating tree up in the park today that made me laugh but there was little else on the trail of note so I won’t note it….and, on that note, I am going to read the online papers and have my last cup of coffee…more later…
August 11th
Well…running normal today but I lost my sunglasses and I am really bummed about that…not sure how that could have happened since I never take them out of the car…oh, well….I’ll have to look better to see if they are there…it was a total veg day yesterday with the rain and I didn’t even ride the bike…okay…the coffee is done so I need to go have a cup and read the papers…
August 10th
Well…it was a long day yesterday and with going out to shoot pool and then cocktails here, I feel like crap today…so bad that I am going to skip going out for the papers today and just stay here and lick the wounds while I drink a lot of water and hit the couch….so, on that note, I am going to stop here and come back later for more…
Okay, I’m back and feeling a little better so I thought I’d add a little to this one…it has been raining all day and it looks like it is going to continue into tomorrow so I gave myself the day off from riding the bike but that has made the recovery go slower than I had hoped…I did lose at pool yesterday and that was okay…I can’t remember a run of winning that was this long but I think I used up my Keno luck on all of those wins…so, maybe I should go out and buy a ticket….I am going to try to get a political one out later in the day but, with not going out to read the papers, I don’t have as much to choose from…I have read the normal papers on my phone but it just isn’t the same…more later..
August 9th
Well….it was another day yesterday and that makes it 4 days in a row of being good which is not such an accomplishment when you think about it…but, it does make me feel better so that is something…even slept okay last night so I feel like I have some energy today….no dreams to speak of but that’s okay….I am starting to get tired of the Olympics..all of the events seem to run together and the reactions to winning all seem to be the same…crying, flags, and other nonsense…I guess I’m going into overload but there is the women’s gold medal game in soccer that I do have to watch…but I’ll have to go out to see it…not sure about hitting a bar in the middle of the afternoon but I guess I can suck it up….other than that, not much to do today…the grocery run, of course….but it looks like it may rain and I might have the day off from riding….hope not….more later…
August 8th
Well…it was just another day yesterday but I was good last night so I feel okay today….another night of crappy sleep is leaving me worn out again today but I guess I’ll survive it….there was one cool thing that happened, though, they landed a Blackhawk helicopter at the Peppino’s right near hear and it was pretty loud…watched it take off, too,….was surprised at how big it was….and what poor shape it was in…looked pretty beat up with chipped paint and oil streaks….and the army folks with it looked like they were 12 or so….I must really be getting old….not much to do today….no, really, not much to do today…so it looks like the normal stuff and trying to avoid the boredom that has been rampant lately…even getting bored with the Olympics…I am really glad that gymnastics is over…the screeching of the cheers from the youngsters was getting on my nerves….more later…
August 7th
Well…it was a day yesterday and I had some fun with meeting up with G for a couple but that was about all I did….I did get the car cleaned up and it was fun driving home in the dark last night with the top down…had to put he heat on but it was still fun…I like the old school green lighting of the instruments and the weird pop-up headlights…kinda cool…no sleep again last night and I am exhausted again today…don’t have much to do so that shouldn’t be a problem….okay…not feeling it again so I’ll come back later to add to this one…and there just has to be something going on in politics that I can comment on that is not Mitt…
