Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I didn’t get anything done for the umpteenth day….I think I’m going to start feeling guilty about that soon but I’m not sure when…slept okay last night and feel kind of slow this morning and I know part of it is that bug I thought I had a few days back…have been coughing like crazy all morning and I feel warm so I guess I’ve got a cold of some sort…don’t feel too bad so there will be a bike ride this morning…it was a pretty cool sports day yesterday and today is about half of that but there will be pole day at Indy and that will be cool….not too sore this morning but just stiff and I’m not sure what that is about…just old, I guess….not much to do today…need more coffee and then out on the bike but that is about it…more later….

Well…it was an okay day and I won at pool so that is cool….slept okay last night but feel a little crappy today and I hope that will go away after the bike ride…still somewhat sore everywhere and I’m not sure if it is just age or what….haven’t take anything for it for the past two days but I am going to before the bike ride…my triceps have been hurting on the bike and that is really annoying….just want a good ride where I can think about something other than the pain….need to check the shifter on the bike again since the upshifts are a little slow…might just have to lube it again or the pins have worked out again….it has been working quite well lately and I want that to continue….not much to do today…lots of sports with Man U, Indycar, Nascar, and horse racing so I will have plenty of stuff to nap to…more later….
May 20th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…slept okay last night but feel a little slow this morning with it being a cocktail night last night…I think I may have a bug, too, and that is compounding it somewhat….have been coughing quite a bit since last night and I feel a little warm today….not bad but just a little warm so we’ll see how that goes…not too sore today but I am going to take ibuprofen before I get on the bike since the cramps in my hands were quite bad yesterday….I am a little stiff all over today and I’m not sure what that is about…but, I am going to stop bitching about any of that…after all, I should be sore after a long, hard ride….not much to do today….pool, of course, but not much else…I should wash the car and might…the damn birds have covered the sidewalks here along with my car and I’m not sure what the deal is….more later….
A little trail weirdness…
Well…I know I haven’t done one of these in a long time but, in my defense, there really hasn’t been anything weird on the trail lately…and, I’m not sure if this is weird or not but just funny…when I was about half way through my ride today and stopped for a water stop, in my peripheral vision was a little yellow caterpillar hanging from a web off the side of my hat…didn’t think anything of it after I got started again since I thought it just blew off so I went about my ride and when I got to my next stop, here comes the caterpillar that was blowing back over my shoulder to just hang from the side of the hat again…this continued almost all the way through the last 6 miles and a felt a little bad when I got to the last stop and he wasn’t there anymore….just one of those strange things you can see if you just open your eyes and observe at times….
May 19th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done but a few things around here….slept reasonably last night and feel okay this morning but I was sore walking around Meijers this morning and I’m not sure why….might have to take ibuprofen this morning before I get on the bike…I did make the pork loin that I marinaded overnight and it came out pretty good…this one will make it into the normal rotation since it actually gave the pork flavor that I haven’t been able to achieve until now….even bought another one to freeze and make Sunday….the damn birds are starting to irritate the hell out of me with the car being covered again this morning…might have to buy a pellet gun and just shoot the damn things…or buy a cover for the car…but, I don’t want to spend the money….not much to do today…just the normal stuff…but I will do a long bike ride today and then come back here and clean a bunch….more later….
May 18th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…again…did have a nice lunch with T and she is looking much better after all the health problems she has had over the past few months…slept a little crappy but still feel okay after being good for the second night and that will continue tonight…the pain that I felt in my right forearm is gone today and there is no pain anywhere else so I guess I’ll take that….had a good bike ride yesterday but when is it ever going to get warm enough to go out without a sweatshirt? I have a pork loin sitting in a new marinade that I can’t wait to try later today after I run some errands and make a little cash….not much to do today…I have to wash the car again since it looks like I was parked under a tree full of birds in the Sahara desert and I can’t see through the windows…going to do that right now before I start working out or ride the bike…more later….
May 17th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I didn’t get much done…again…I did find a new marinade recipe for pork loin that I am going to try today and let it set in the fridge until I cook it tomorrow…slept pretty crappy last night with being good but I did find that using earplugs make my congestion worse for some reason….so, I think I’ll try a few days without them….had really bad pain in the top of my right forearm that I thought was going to be the pain for the summer but it is better today and I’m not sure what the heck is going on…..just an overall stiffness that is in my neck and entire upper body today that was pain yesterday so maybe it’s getting better….not much to do today…going to have lunch with T and then back here to watch the last Man U game….and I am going to clean some today to get a start on the kitchen…more later….
May 16th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done but laundry…slept okay last night but am moving a little slow today and that’s okay….I earned it after the cocktail night last night….after two days off the bike, I am not sore anywhere so I think I’ll go out today and make my legs sore again….need a good hard ride to make up for skipping….I do need to wash the car since it has a bullseye on it from almost all the birds in the world and it looks like no rain for a while….I do have a sports one to do today and another one on ole Trump’s lying about his income but that will be for later…not much to do today…going to wash the car and the normal stuff today but that is about it….more later…
May 15th
Well…it was an okay but wasted day yesterday and I feel a little guilty about it….just didn’t feel well most of the day but I feel okay today…there was ice on the car this morning and that is just wrong for the middle of May….where the heck is spring? Just haven’t seen much of one so far this year…maybe this week? Slept okay last night and woke up with no soreness since I skipped the bike ride yesterday and I think I may do the same today…only supposed to be around 50 today and I just don’t want to be cold anymore…and, I’ll have to wait until after the final Man U game today that comes on at 10….so right now, the F1 race is on and I want to watch it so I think I’ll go back to the couch….not much to do today…going to clean a little but that is about it…..more later….
No politics…
Well…you know, the politics on the right have become so absurd that I just can’t bring myself to talk about it right now…but, I do need to do another one today so I think I’ll just wing it again and see what happens…started to feel okay about an hour ago and I think part of it was not eating yesterday since the feeling better coincided with lunch and I have been trying to eat almost continually all day…one huge disheartening thing that happened today was frickin snow…in the middle of May here and I can’t remember it snowing this late in the year in my lifetime and that is a really long time…I think it was a good choice to skip the bike ride today…oh, I think part of my feeling lousy is a cold or something since I have been coughing and feeling warm all day…and no energy so maybe I can convince myself that is the problem and not my being stupid yesterday….but, not eating makes me feel warm, too, so who knows….okay…that’s enough for now…there is a race on and the couch is calling my name….more later….
