April 24th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so there will be groceries today…slept okay, too, but I am so sore from something that I am creaking around here this morning…I may even have to take some ibuprofen to try to help that….taking a day off the bike may help, too but that will be dictated by the rain….might have to wait until this aft….it was nice to get out of here and put the top down for a cruise yesterday but I think that is about all I accomplished for the whole day…some work around here, too, but not enough…not much to do today…I do have to make the grocery run and then out for a couple with G later so I do have something to do….more later…

April 23rd

Well…it was a different day yesterday and theWwings lost so that was pretty crappy…not sure if I’m going to watch any more games they played so bad…we’ll see….slept okay last night and was not up too early today so that is a plus for now…skipped the bike ride yesterday since I was working on plumbing at G’s and that took a bunch of running around….I am going to try to get back out today but it won’t be til this aft since it is damn cold again today…and, I do want to finish up the Homeland series I’ve been watching on Plex…so that will be this morning along with some work around here that will get me to lunch…then, I’ll have to figure out the rest of the day…more later….

April 22nd

Well…running a little late today with going out to the grocery store after the realization that I didn’t have any food for today…but, I was good and didn’t buy any booze since I am in the midst of being good until at least Thursday….I am getting used to it and feel so much better in the morning that I may even go until Friday night without cocktails….even slept okay last night and the tooth is finally starting to heal…still hurts when I eat but that is the only pain and is a long way better than it was last week…I do have to run over to G’s rental this morning to take a look at a leaking shower and see if it can be fixed without a plumber….not work I like to do anymore but I don’t really have anything else going on…too windy and cold to go out on the bike today and the sprints hurt the legs anyway…a day off will be okay…or, I may go out later after the plumbing…who knows?  More later…

Not doing my job…

Well…with the lack of politics in the news the past few days…I really haven’t had a lot to write about…but that is no excuse for not doing my job and coming up with off the wall topics…and even something interesting that doesn’t have anything to do about politics….so, what could that be? Not sure right now…maybe a series on the musing  of the day? Or just thoughts? I did get out of here for a while today to take the car out with the top down, windows down, and the heat off today in a short sleeved shirt…it was nearly 80 after all, and that was fun…did the park run and put about 50 miles on it today just screwing around…got sunburned a little, too, but I may live through that….have just wasted the day other than that so I really don’t have much to say right now….I’ll try to get better tomorrow but can’t promise anything…after all, I have done over 3,000 of these over the years…I should be blocked a little anyway….

April 21st

Well…it was a sports day yesterday and every one of my teams lost but the Tigers so that was not good…slept okay last night but still feel crappy today with all of the coughing and sneezing last night…not sure if it is allergies or a cold but it is a pain in the butt…and I have a sore throat this morning so maybe it is a bug….the computer seems to be working today again so maybe it’s fixed…hope so since the delay was such a pain in the ass and having to take the battery out to get it to restart was getting old….not much to do today…need to work out and then get on the bike before it rains…can go out with just a t shirt this morning but then it gets cold again for a week…I am damn tired of this cold spring….more later…

April 20th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t really get much done…and today looks much the same since Man U plays this morning and then there are the Wings and F1 this aft…and, I do need to wedge a bike ride in there somewhere after the temp comes up some…I can’t wait for the days where all I have to do is go out and it will be warm enough already…slept crappy but this time it is from the allergies going crazy and plugging my head up so I couldn’t breathe…and, that is still a problem that I’m not sure what to do about….I am going to cook today and it will be nice to have something other than leftovers for the first time in almost a week…not much to to do today….going to clean a little between sports but that is about it….more later…

Running out of ideas…

Well…I have been sitting here thinking, trying to figure out what to write about but have had no luck today…politicians haven’t done anything stupid so that’s out…I could talk about the Wings and probably should with how well they played last night…the Bruins are supposed to be just too big a skilled for the Wings but we played with them all night…and Pavel’s goal was something I’ve never seen before…pretty cool…it’s probably out there on the internet somewhere and you should go watch it…the ride today was not anywhere near as interesting as yesterday’s but it was still nice to get out…I do look forward to a day with no wind and a little warmer, though, going all the way out to the east in a 15 mph wind was tiring…it looks like there won’t be a lot of action around here the rest of the day…just can’t get motivated so I guess I’ll just veg and think some more….

Oh, the computer seems to be working well again and I can’t figure it out…

April 19th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool so that was cool…slept okay bu just okay so I am a little tired today…there were some strange things that  happened on the trail where two women stopped to talk to me and ask me how I was since they hadn’t seen me out there yet….that was weird…but, the night was cool with the Wings beating the Bruins in the first game of the playoffs…and, they played well…I guess the pundits talk about the Wings being the team no one wanted to see in the first round could be true….didn’t get much else done yesterday and today looks like more of the same…the temp is not coming up fast enough so it looks like a long wait to go out…and, this damn computer is screwed up again so it looks like a call to my son is in order…more later… Okay…have gotten this thing to restart but I’m still not sure if it is fixed or not…at least it doesn’t have a delay in the keyboard so that is a plus….spoke too soon…it still delays…damn…and now it’s freezing up all the time…crap…

Okay…it seems to be working now…at least for this sentence…we’ll see later today whether it holds up…

April 18th

Well…have been having computer problems this morning and that I am going to blame for being late…not really the problem but I’ll blame it anyway….slept okay last night but feel a little crappy today with not being good…but part of it is not eating enough…again…not sure why it is so hard to get the calorie count up but it is….didn’t do much yesterday but look for work and I am tired of doing that so today is going to be all Red Wings all day since the playoffs start tonight….might shoot pool today but I’m not sure…the computer is still screwed up so I need to shut it down and see if that helps…more later…

Okay…just had to pull the battery out of this thing but it seems to be working right now…so, I will be back later for more…but I need to have coffee and ride the bike first….

April 17th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I got a few things done so I don’t feel it was a totally lost day….didn’t sleep much and was up at 5:30 or so today but I was good last night so I feel okay today….at least it’s above freezing this morning so I won’t have to warm the car up…skipped the bike ride yesterday since I was still waiting for it to get above 45 at 4 in the aft….just don’t need the cold anymore…it looks like I’ll be waiting again today since it is only going to be around 55 for a high….I do need to do the grocery run this morning and I am out of food so that is really necessary….I am a little tired of the ham I cooked last week so I think I’ll put the rest of it in the freezer to make ham soup later and get back into the boring old chicken routine….think I’ll do leftovers first today, though, and start fresh tomorrow….more later…
