Well…didn’t really need to come back for another one today since I am quite a bit over for the month but I am really bored so I thought I’d noodle for a bit and see what happens….need some more water first….okay, I’m back….I did get a couple of errands run this morning….had to go to Target to get a few pairs of cut down socks that I needed for riding the bike to help get ride of the biker tan around my ankles that came from the normal crew socks that I push down to make as small as possible…got 6 pairs of padded black ones for 10 bucks so that was a good deal…and I ran out of some food staples that I need for meals tomorrow, so I stopped at Meijers for that stuff and now I have some good potatoes to have with chicken tomorrow…the old ones had turned to liquid inside the skins and that is just too gross to think about….I am going to go over to daily deals tomorrow to get boneless/skinless chicken breasts for 99 cents a pound and that is another good deal…will probably get new wiper blades for the car at Menards, too since they are just around the corner from daily deals…was supposed to go out for a couple with G today but haven’t heard from her so I guess I’ll save some money and hang out here…okay, I could go on with this for a while but you’re probably as bored as I am so I’ll stop here….

The trials start…
Well…it’s a pretty great day today with the first trials of trump’s cronies getting underway and I have the popcorn popped for the fireworks that are going to happen. I wonder what is in Manafort’s head actually going to trial instead of taking a plea deal? People who have seen the evidence say that the cases are so strong they really don’t need any witnesses, just the paper trail that this idiot left behind…I think part of the reason that Manafort hasn’t flipped is he thinks he is going to get away with it…after all, he has been a criminal his whole life and this is the first time he has been charged with anything…and you know that the repubs think they are above the law since they constantly break it with no consequences…just look at the Bushies who tortured people, breaking both US and international law and do you see any of them locked up? I know this trial really has nothing to do with trump’s conspiracy with the Russians, but it will send a chill down the idiot’s spine since Manafort is charged with exactly the same things that trump has done his whole life…and we know that indictments are coming…can’t wait….impeach…
July 31st
Well…I think I’m on time this morning…but, time really doesn’t exist so who knows? Had a good day yesterday and I won at pool for the first time in a month so that was cool….slept okay last night but struggled to eat enough again yesterday so today may be bad on the bike…we’ll see….I really do need to take a day off the bike since I have been on it every day for 4 months and I could use a rest day…didn’t get anything done yesterday but I do need to prepare some food for tomorrow…have thawed some fish and chicken and I need to marinate the fish to bake…and I do need to get out to run some errands today…my daily deals store has boneless skinless chicken breasts on sale for 99 cents a pound and how can you pass that up? And, I need some new, low cut socks from Target so that will be the plan after I work out and ride….more later….
July 30th
Well….back to running on time today and I’m not sure if that’s a good or bad thing….slept okay last night and don’t feel too badly this morning but I think I was under on calories again yesterday and I am getting really tired of thinking about it…we’ll see how bad it’s going to be when I get out on the bike here in a while….need to get some food out of the freezer to have tomorrow….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and today will be the same with pool this aft but I really don’t need to get much done….don’t have a lot to do….T is going back to work today and I am a little worried about her…hope it goes okay…the car is back to not starting and I think I may have to start using the battery disconnect switch again…can’t wait to have a garage to work on it again….not much to do today…just going to ease into it with more coffee and some news….more later….
It’s weird what 500 calories will do…
Well….it was torture on the bike yesterday and I was hoping that it would be better today…and it was…I had been under on calories for a few days and I can’t remember a ride that was as bad as yesterday…so, I loaded in an extra 500 calories yesterday afternoon and it is weird how much that little bit of food did for my body…had a great ride today with plenty of energy and my hands didn’t even cramp up…so I do need to design an experiment to see if it is from the extra calories or what…all I know is that I don’t want to feel like yesterday on the bike ever again…and, one thing I am a little confused about is the fact that I’m not thin by any means and there should be plenty of energy in my fat stores to power a ride without distress so I guess I need to go out on the net and try to find what the mechanism is…..
July 29th
well…running late again today and the reason is the same…needed to get out on the bike before the F1 race comes on and I just made it…slept okay last night and feel pretty good this morning with getting enough to eat yesterday…will talk about that a little more later….felt like crap all day yesterday and I’m sure it’s just from not eating enough….didn’t get anything else done with how I felt and today might be the same and it might not…I may get motivated later on but I’m not promising anything…the kitchen still needs work but I did get dishes done so I guess that’s something…don’t need to cook today so it’s going to be an easy one…and that is going to start right now with more coffee and the first race of the day…more later…..
Trump really is that dumb…
Well…is anyone else even a little bit alarmed about the news that came out of of the meeting between the idiot trump and the European Commission President this week? Okay, if you didn’t read this one, Jean-Claude Juncker had to use brightly colored flash cards to explain global trade to idiot boy last week and if that doesn’t alarm you, there is something wrong with you. There were about a dozen cards which had minimal information on them since everyone in the world but trump supporters know he’s not very bright…and here’s the money quote from a senior EU official who was at the meeting: “We knew this wasn’t an academic seminar…it had to be very simple”. In other words they were trying to teach global trade to a toddler with the attention span of a gnat…and that should embarrass anyone here in the US who still has a functioning brain cell…I guess that leaves out trump supporters…impeach…
July 28th
Well…running really late today with getting out on the bike early so I can watch F1 qualifying….not eating enough yesterday and no coffee this morning made for a really, really hard ride today and I am still feeling it right now….but, the coffee is starting to work so I may survive it….slept okay last night but got up early again so that doesn’t help, either….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I will do some work around here today…the kitchen needs some work and I should do some but not right now….need to watch some sports first…there’s a time trial on the Tour today and that will be after qualifying….today was probably the worst ride I’ve had in months…I even made some toast and peanut butter after I got back here I was feeling so crappy…and I never eat breakfast…more later….
Cohen is giving trump up…
Well….haven’t been watching the news lately…have been depending on my normal internet news feeds but sometimes they lag a bit…so, last night I turned on Rachel for a minute and the bombshell of the week jumped out at me…Michael Cohen is going to tell Mueller that the idiot trump was aware of, and approved of the trump tower meeting with the Russians to get “dirt” on Hillary….yep, and that means that there were campaign financing laws being broken and the obstruction case against trump and his idiot gang has just gotten stronger. One of the questions that is still to be answered is who leaked this information? Cohen’s lawyer says they didn’t do it and the only other people who have this is trump and his cronies…so why would trump release it? The only thing that I can see is that trump is trying to damage Cohen, being the spiteful ass that he is…but this doesn’t do anything to lower Cohen’s value to Mueller…and this means that Cohen really can damage trump…hopefully that will end with a perp walk for the idiot in chief….impeach….
July 27th
Well…running a little early today with needing to get on the bike by 7:30 to be back here to see F1 practice at 9…slept okay last night but I am still fighting the pain in my neck that I’ve had for a few days now….but, my back is better so I guess that’s a wash….got a few things done yesterday and I hope to get a few done today, too….but not too much….didn’t win the 500 million dollar Mega the other day and that is a little depressing….but, I’m not going to dwell on it…the Powerball is up to 150 million so maybe I’ll try that….I should do one of these on the trail happenings but nothing has happened so that would be a little bit of work….not much to do today….just going to ease into it…not really, need to get on the bike but need more coffee first….more later….
