Well…it was a strange day yesterday with it raining so much and lots of thunder but no real storms here…I did get the chance to get out on the bike when a small clearing came but I came back muddy….I was feeling guilty about eating twice yesterday so I had to go out no matter what the weather…it looks like a pretty nice day out there right now and I am going to go get the newspapers and make some coffee…skipped that yesterday for some reason that I don’t remember….I did get a lot of stuff done so maybe that’s it…had to buy a new tube for the back tire on the bike since I couldn’t find the leak and got one that has a gel sealer in it that I hope will get me through the rest of the summer with no more flats. Not much to do today…I may go over to see the fireworks later but the summer Daytona race is on so I am a little conflicted…we’ll see….

Thank you Chuck Schumer…
Well….I really do like the fact that “Countdown” is back since it sometimes gives me topics for the day….last night, Sen Chuck Schumer was on and he did something that I have been calling for the dems to do for at least a year now…he said the unthinkable…that the repubs are planning on crashing the economy for political gain and that is what this whole debt ceiling fight is about……I see some heartening signs that the dems are starting to call them on this nonsense not only by sen Schumers remarks, but sen Reid coming out and telling the country that Medicare and Medicaid cuts are off the table period….and they are pushing for the needed tax increases on the rich but coloring them as the patriotic duty of the well off to help the country that has given them so much…I think the tide is starting to turn….I wonder what was put in the water that made the dems grow a backbone? Whatever it is, keep doing it and maybe we can get our country back from the repub thugs….
July 1st
Well…I did make it to 60 for the month but I’m concerned that my political commentary has suffered lately….I do have one of those right after this one so stay tuned….a fun day yesterday after the coffee shop debacle when I met up K and V for a couple and then back here for Burn Notice and a couple of cocktails….back to the not sleeping thing again and I am tired today but I’m still considering going out to the beach this morning….there is a line of storms that is getting ready to come onshore at GH but they should be through by the time I get there…I spent 80 bucks yesterday on groceries but it felt good that I had the cash to pay instead of the credit card…and I have so much bad food to make over the weekend that I’m smiling…burgers and brats..yay….not much to do today…I really should go to the beach just to get out of here and then I have to get some supplies…I do feel a little crappy so I need water and the couch for a while….more later…or right now…
