Well… a strange night last night..I do feel a little better but not 100 percent yet….bad sleep and up early didn’t help but I do have the day to rest a little and clean….not much to do today…not sure what I’m going to cook today….I might end my year old break from fast food but probably not….and I will come back later for one or more….
Okay….did have a little argument with G last night but we have learned how to defuse arguments and it really turned out to be a nice evening…we even won some money playing Keno which never happens anymore…so, I am looking forward to next Monday out with her…
One last thing…Netflix has taken a pounding in stock price since they announced they were doubling prices a couple of months ago and I say “good”….another greedy corporation that made the mistake of thinking they were indispensable in peoples lives and now they are paying for the hubris of their leadership….what happened to good value and reasonable profits?
Well…another night and I think I may be feeling better, finally, but I won’t know that until later….but the signs are there….and I had a good night with watching disc 2 of “Dexter” to keep the boredom at bay….ever since the flat on the bike Sunday, I have been sore all over but I even think that may be going away….but the front that I put on seems to be leaking so I’ll need to take it back apart and see what the problem is…might have to buy another tube today….probably with the leak stop in it so I won’t have to worry about flats anymore….not much to do today…it is grocery day and I’ll have to wait until after lunch to ride since it is so cold out…I will have more later since I did all of the work yesterday to get caught up…..
Well….a much better night last night and I feel almost human this morning….not quite 100 percent so much better…still can feel the bug, though, with that itchy skin hot feeling that comes with it but I hope that goes away later today….I am going out to get the papers and have coffee today but there will be no more sitting outside to read them with the temps still falling the next couple of days…and frost…I do not want to get the scraper out for the car…not yet, it’s way too early. Not much to do today….I do need groceries but this week it’s going to be two stores to get what I need….I am getting close to being caught up here and I will put the push on to get ahead today…so there will be politics later…or maybe even some sports with Verlander winning another one and the Tigers running away…more later…
Well….I can’t remember such a wasted day and feeling this crappy….after I got off the bike, I didn’t do anything at all and I don’t know if that was the right thing to do…I am feeling better now with just getting off the phone with my middle son…haven’t talked to him in a couple of months and it was good to get an update from him that things are going well…I am a couple down for the month but I am making it a goal to get caught up tomorrow when I feel better…at least I hope I feel better since this bug has been hanging on for almost a week now…I don’t feel nearly as feverish and that is normally a good sign but this could be one of those that come and go for a couple of weeks…I do have to watch “Countdown” tonight to get some topic ideas but will need to write them down if I do….and I hope there will be dreams again tonight…that last one was an almost complete movie….Tom thinks it could turn into a new novel and I know I need to get writing again….more tomorrow…
Well…a fun day but I still feel like crap today…I lost at pool but it was fun so it was okay….not used to going out on Monday and having Tuesday be a recovery day but that’s what it looks like…going to skip coffee and just lick the wounds for a while….so, on that note, I’m going back to the couch for rest and ice water….more later…
Okay, I’m going to have to stop going out until I get over this bug…have felt really crappy all day today and need to get over it….so, I’m going to be good the rest of the week until I have a couple with G thursday….I did get out on the bike today and found out I really don’t like the new front tire…it slides quite easily and make the bike handle really strange…so, I’ll get another one later in the week and use this one for a spare…it was kind of weird on the trail today with swarms of grasshoppers everywhere that were banging off me as I went through them…I will try to get going and read some of the online papers to get a topic for a political one…
Well…a day of not much yesterday….did watch the Lions win but they didn’t do it easily….and I am going to be the first one to say I’ve had enough of this 9/11 overkill…how does a wound heal if you keep reopening it? I understand it was traumatic for many, many people but when do you get to the point where you stop letting that tragic event define you? I think we would be much better off if we treated it like an earthquake or some other natural disaster and just move on….not much to do today..I do have to get the new tire for the bike and the normal stuff….still not feeling that great and it will probably be another veg day until I feel better….more later…
Well…this is the second try at this one…my internet was down when I started it so the draft wasn’t saved…have to try to remember what I wrote but I think it wasn’t much…I was a little irritated by the outage but it really never happens so I just have to let it go….I did have a flat on the bike again today and had to walk back about 4 miles and that should have irritated me some but it didn’t for some reason and I am home and waiting for the ham to cook so I can have a nice lunch….it was a nice day yesterday with going out to see part of the Michigan game with C and D but I still have that bug that has been making me sweat just sitting here and the rest of the symptoms are coming on with a sore throat and coughing….there was one good thing about getting the flat…I found that the front tire is worn out and had a big slit in the sidewall that could have failed and caused a huge crash….and it gives me an excuse to not go out again today….so, I’m going to read the online papers and have a big glass of water…more later…
Well… a strange thing happened on the trail today…when I came past, a flock of sparrows took off down the trail so I was riding inside the group…the weirdest thing but pretty cool…did get a bunch of stuff done today…finally replaced the headlight in the car so I can drive it at night and be able to see…the wreck has the worst headlights ever put on a car and you have to use the high beams to see anything…going out to watch the Michigan game later but I still feel kind of crappy so I don’t know how long I’ll be out…will probably be home by 10 or so unless I get my second wind…what else? Nothing, so I’ll stop here and promise you that I’ll get to a political one tomorrow….there are lots of things to talk about…I just need to get motivated…
Well…it was a nice day yesterday with a long lunch with T and then cocktails and another win by the Tigers….it looks like a glorious morning out there and I can’t wait to get on the bike for a long one to get the toxins out….”The Shining” was on last night and I can’t get over how great the direction by Kubrick was…it’s like a series of paintings put together to make a movie….probably my favorite Kubrick movie and my favorite Jack Nicholson role….going to be a long one today with the Michigan game on at 8 tonight…and C is coming into town so I have to go out to watch it…I do have my gear ready and I am looking forward to it….F-1 qualifying is on now so I’m going to go back to that…more later…
Well….running late this morning and I don’t know why really…I did have to finish up a movie that I started and I don’t have any sense of urgency to get moving since I am going to watch F-1 practice before I take off to have coffee…it was a day yesterday…I did get the car fixed and it is so cool to not get gassed when I drive…I did go out and have a couple with G and then back here to watch “Burn Notice” and have a couple of cocktails….not much to do today…might have lunch with T but I haven’t heard from her yet so we’ll see…more later…
