Well…felt like crap all day yesterday and I’m not sure that Tuesday was the cause….I hope I feel better today but I think that I have overlapping viruses since I have new symptoms that weren’t there when this crap started 3 weeks ago. Oh, well….it’s kind of like last year when I had this low level thing that lasted for almost a month. Didn’t really do much yesterday but go out for coffee and work out…watched another British show called “Wire in the blood” that is okay…and now have three more seasons to watch so I won’t get bored as much as normal. The chicken that I made yesterday came out really good and I will have to keep the carcass to make chicken soup next week….well, not next week since I do need two carcasses to have enough flavor…not much to do today…I do need to get the taxes done since I need to get the cash so I can pay the rent in April….and maybe out with G later but I’m not sure…I promise that I’m going to get more topics out almost everyday and I guess I’ll do the same today….More later…

Well…long night last night and I won at pool…finally, had a lot of fun but, like almost all Wednesdays, I feel a little crappy today. Was up and down all night starting at about 3 or so and I think that has something to do with it…still really tired right now so this one is going to be short and I will come back to add to it later…not much to do today anyway….might even skip coffee this morning but that is the only thing that keeps me going so doing that could just compound the problem….more later…

Okay…I’m back and feeling almost human again after coffee…I am getting really tired of the cold here in Michigan and my car isn’t faring much better….I think it may be time to replace it…but it’s going to be hard on me since I’ve had it for over 10 years and it has been a part of my identity for that time…but, the next one is going to be a convertible of some sort and that is good to look forward to…I know, canvas top converts are not the most practical things to have in Michigan but I lived with a Fiat 124 for 3 winters with a top that was held together with duct tape and didn’t have the heaters that the newer ones have…and rear wheel drive in the snow is a heck of a lot of fun…as my son has found out with his Genesis coupe…I think I have topics for later but have to work out first to keep from feeling guilty…and I have to check to see if the chicken I’m brining is thawed….

Well…was really bored last night after being in for 3 days so I thought I’d go out and watch part of the Wings game…oh, no G last night since she was a little under the weather and I do miss her…but, it was nice to have a little cash so I could go out and have a couple…the Wings won and I won 21 bucks at Keno which almost paid the tab and tip…only out 4 bucks for the night so that was fun. Had to go out since the Wings were on Versus…and only stayed for about half of the game…the new season of “Top Gear” started on BBC American and the show makes me laugh so much I couldn’t miss it. Needless to say…I feel okay today since I was good when I got home but my damn back is acting up again and I’m having trouble sleeping with the pain coming and going all night. I know, I could take some ibuprofen…but I just forgot…I am getting old after all. Not much to do today…have to to the taxes and send out some resumes…and of course, out to Ada for pool later….no snow today but it is going to be cold and I am getting tired of it…where the hell is our January thaw? Okay…I know it’s Feb but that’s no excuse…going back to the couch now to watch the last two episodes of “Californication”…I have been up since five….more later…

Well…not much of a day yesterday…just couldn’t get that interested in the super bowl and with GB winning, the Lions can say they beat the SB champs…a small consolation but a consolation…and I was wrong in my prediction of the winner….the Steelers just looked like crap and gave the game to the Pack..oh, well…no money on it for me so no big deal. I just couldn’t get into the 6 hours of pregame nonsense so I watched movies instead…and just took it easy most of the day…have made progress in the battle against cobwebs and I still have a clean microwave so the small victories are the ones I’ll have to celebrate. Still love the Roku…but I think I’ll need to just keep it shut off or only music to get some things done…not much to do today…I was good last night so I feel good this morning and might even be able to accomplish a few things. I will promise that I’ll have some political stuff out today…and maybe some other ones, too…but I’m not sure what those will be just yet. You’ll just have to come back to see…today could be a day of creativity…who knows? More later….

Well….running late this morning….have been up since dark, though, so there really is no reason for it other than I forgot….another shut out for the Wings last night and I just can’t understand those guys…I think it’s the feb slump that they go through every year…at least I hope it is. Didn’t do a whole lot yesterday…did make the pork loin roast and it came out so good….I even had two whole pieces…those of you out there that know me know how unusual that is…still having a hard time eating enough, it seems as though I’m stuck on about a 1,000 cal a day and I know that is not a good thing for me….I felt guilty about eating such a big meal so the rest of the day I had an apple…no real dreams since I got up early and they normally come in the hours between 5 and 7….I did get quite a bit of cleaning done in my kitchen and I’m no longer scared of using my microwave…I think it had it’s own ecosystem going in there….not much to do today..going to continue the cleaning later but right now it’s to the couch for the newspaper and some coffee…more later…

Well….a nice day yesterday and it was good to see T for lunch…didn’t do much else the rest of the day except clean and watch a couple of movies…the Wings played like crap last night so I am a little disappointed about that but there is another game tonight to watch and there is always hope they will do better…well…there is always hope I will better, too, but that never pans out….I did have weird dreams again last night but it was in a place that I’ve never seen and with people I didn’t know so I don’t know what to take away from it….I guess just enjoy it…that damn cold or flu or whatever I have is still hanging on and I’m not sure what to make of it…I had one like this last year that lasted a month but I hope that won’t be the case. Cooking….hmmmm….going to make a pork loin roast today with roasted potatoes and carrots…possibly some broccoli, too since I have some fresh that is going to go bad if I don’t use it today and veggies are good for you, right? I think I’ll save the homemade pizza for tomorrow…or maybe roast a whole chicken…79 cents a pound a FF…can’t pass that up….so, not much to do today…you already know about the cooking and there will be some cleaning involved….need to get to the kitchen at some point since I have only been cleaning around the edges….it’s time for papers and coffee so I’m going to do that right now…more later…

Well…a fun night out with G last night but had a small argument on whether tornados can travel along hilly or mountainous terrain…yep, pretty weird but it was nice to get out again….weird dreams again, too…could not find my place since the normal way into the lot was blocked by large orange dogs…when I came in another way all of the numbers and colors of the buildings were wrong. I know…it’s pretty scary in my head at times. Not much to do today…have lunch with T and that will be cool since I haven’t seen her in a few weeks and, I overdid it last night, so back here to just veg the rest of the day. I will have a few more today….well…maybe….not sure right now…

Well…pretty amazing Wings game last night with Frantzen getting 5 goals…but we needed it since the d couldn’t stop anything….went out to hang out with K and J for a while and the bar was the only place around here that was busy….didn’t do much else yesterday but hibernate and dig the car out…they still haven’t cleaned the lot here so my car is parked so far away I can’t see it..feel like crap today but I think it’s from not eating enough..okay..cocktails, too, but isn’t that what you do on snow days? Not much to do today…have to go out and get groceries this morning and then maybe out with G for a couple later but I’m not really planning on it…didn’t sleep well and will have to take a nap later, too so big plans today….I will get a couple more out later today…I hope…

Well…I have tried to get something started all day today and have had no luck at all…three are plenty of things to write about but I don’t know….I may be running into the writers block thing that gets me at times but what if it’s permanent….just another thing for me to worry about on top of the rest….oh, well…the Wings are coming back tonight after the all star break and with Pavel and Cleary coming back it will be fun to watch…I have unburied my car and moved it to a cleared spot so I can take that if I want to go out tonight but I don’t know if I have the energy for that…just feel sluggy today and probably should stop before you lose all faith in my abilities..if you even had any….maybe more later….

Well…fun night out shooting pool in Ada…didn’t win but it was close so that’s okay….I kind of laugh about the “blizzard” that we had last night..there is a cool drift around my car but I don’t see it as any worse than the normal storms we get all the time here….I guess the news people just need something to talk about. I do feel kind of crappy because I wasn’t a good boy when I got home but I’m still going out for newspapers and coffee….the lots here were cleaned all night long so it should be easy….I might have to walk it but I don’t think so…not much to do today….going to take it easy and recover and try to get a couple of posts out…I know I haven’t been too prolific lately but nothing has grabbed me in the last couple of days…more later…

UPDATE…I did decide to walk out to Kava and it was a good idea..they have started to plow here in our lots but the lot at Kava was ridiculous and I would have buried the Mazda….there were some cool drifts on the way to get the papers that were almost waist deep and I felt like a wilderness explorer by the time I got through them…I did forget that there wouldn’t be any of today’s newspapers so I had to make do with yesterdays NY times and GR Press….but that was okay….it was only George and I in Kava and I don’t understand why he even opened since you can only get there in a 4 wheel drive….maybe more later…
