May 8th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so that was cool…got the bathroom cleaned, too…finally…but didn’t get much else done…slept crappy again and feel that way this morning but I hope the bike ride will help that….I did leave the windows open last night and I’m not sure if that was a good idea with all the pollen in the air…my car has a yellow tint to it and I am hoping the storms later will wash that stuff out of the air for at least a little while….have been really sore lately so I think there will be some Ibuprofen before the bike ride today….this years tendon pain is in my right elbow and that is not a good thing….actually it’s in my right tricep and elbow and it is really aggravated by being on the bike…not much to do today…pool, of course, but that is going to be it…more later….

May 7th

Well…running early this morning so I thought I’d get this one done before I get started…slept okay last night and had dreams that flashed from present day to WWII…I was driving an old Plymouth with a slipping clutch and brakes that leaked but with a gorgeous woman with me who was a trooper and went along with everything that happened….pretty cool one to say the least…but it ended as all my relationships have…with getting dumped…I did get a few things done yesterday and today is going to be bathroom cleaning day after I get the bike ride in….it is going to be 86 today and it will be nice to get this place open to air it out…I have this craving for a homemade pizza and that is what I’m going to make today…entirely from scratch and yummy…..not much to do today….I think I may take the aft off after I clean a little and get a few other things done…more later….

This is pretty funny…

Well…if you were here yesterday, you saw my rant on the stupid in Texas…I thought mine was okay, but if you want a truly epic rant on the same subject, you have to go out to Daily Kos and read what Hunter had to say about it…one of the funniest things I have read in a quite a while…and when Hunter gets going, there is no one who does it better…and I rarely recommend other writers. I’ll try to do another later in the day but. for the third day in a row, I have work to do and need to get it done before the soccer match comes on….more later….

May 6th

Well…it was another work filled day yesterday but I have everything done but cleaning so today will be a little slower…slept crappy again last night and it was funny to get a text from T at 5:08 this morning…she had an early, busy day today and it was funny to talk to her that early….I was up anyway so it made smile a little….I did have dreams that had Kasey Kahne in them and my 1971 Fiat….he was going to buy it from me but it broke down in  a huge way downtown…and the funny thing was that when we opened the hood, it had a different engine than is was supposed to have…weird….didn’t get on the bike yesterday with all the rain but that will change today…not supposed to rain until this aft so I’ll get a long one in this morning to try to work out the back pain I’ve been having…not much to do today…I do have to clean up after the work around here and do the bathroom but that will be it….there will be a nap this aft during soccer since I think I only got about 3 hours last night…more later….

May 5th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I finally got something done….worked on things around here all morning then had errands to run that took me almost all day from 8am….a good day that got me going….slept okay last night after I took an antihistamine to help the bad allergic reaction I had yesterday and it looks like I’ll have to do the same today….have been coughing like crazy and that needs to end…it was nice getting out for a little drive yesterday and the car is running great….I got a hundred miles out of the first 1/4 tank and that can’t be right….there is no way I can get 400 miles out of an 11 gallon tank….at least it’s never gotten that in the three years I’ve owned it…might be better than the 26 mpg that I got last time I checked, though…not much to do today…I do have more work to do around here and then get out to vote….more later….

May 4th

Well…it was an okay, if boring, day yesterday and I didn’t get anything done but that is getting to be the new normal around here I guess..slept okay but I’m sore from the hard go on the bike yesterday and that is going to impact what I have to do today….it is nice that is already 60 but I won’t be able to get out today until I do get some work done…maybe after lunch if it’s not raining….I have that damn cough back again and I am wondering if it is another bug or the allergies…all I know is that it is really annoying and I want it done….the funny thing is that it doesn’t hurt the ride on the bike even with the sprints….not much to do today…going to work around here for the morning but that may bleed over into the aft if I decide to get everything done today….more later….

I’m bored silly….

Well…it has been another of those Sundays where things that looked interesting weren’t…the Talladega race was a bore and nothing else that has happened today has pieced the thick veil of boredom that I find myself in…..so, that’s why I’m back here to try to do something that will relieve it some…the snakes are out on the trail again and I stopped and picked one up today…I just love the way they feel…silky and smooth and the garter snakes that I see are too small to even bite me….there was a box turtle on the trail in the woods today just standing in the middle of it with it’s neck extended like it was looking at something…not sure what that would be but it sure looked weird…I was going to work on some politics today but nothing looks interesting right now so this is what you got instead…yeah, I know….I think it’s the boredom…just can’t get motivated….oh, well…

May 3rd

Well….it was a nice day yesterday with a long lunch with T and lots of laughs and good conversation…slept crappy again and it looks like a tornado hit the bedroom from tossing and turning….I did get a long bike ride in in just a t-shirt and that was really cool….and it looks like the same this morning since it is already 57…all I need to do is finish this and then the coffee and I’ll get going…didn’t do much else yesterday so today is going to have to be cleaning day but I’m not sure I want to do that today…not much to do today…going to roast a chicken for lunch and then watch the race from Talledega….more later…

May 2nd

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool…had a good run of a few weeks but just couldn’t shoot yesterday…slept okay last night even without putting the earplugs in…which I just forgot when I hit the sack so maybe I’ll try that again tonight…did get the grocery run in this morning which seemed to be a lot of work…as is writing, and reading, and sitting….maybe I’m just getting old….the run out and back to pool yesterday was cool with the top down and the cover on the top…looks clean with the cover on…and no fleece, finally, and today looks like the same kind of day…it is already almost 50 so I can get out on the bike after I do this and finish my coffee…not much to do today…I should clean my bathroom since I bought all new cleaners this morning but I probably won’t….have lunch planned with T and I think this one will be pretty relaxed since she doesn’t have to hurry back to work….more later….

May 1st

Well…another month gone and the most hated day of the new one comes…I just hate having to pay the rent…slept okay last night and don’t feel too bad this morning but I either have a bug or the allergies are the worst they have ever been…coughing like crazy today and my sinuses are concrete so I guess I’ll have to try some allergy stuff before the bike ride…the cool thing is that as soon as I finish this I can go out since it is already warm enough….and it is supposed to get to 70 today so top down out and back for pool with no fleece….I am sore and limping, too, and I’m not sure where that came from other than the bike….I did get my hair cut yesterday since they had a half price sale going on and I am getting to be a little cheap…not much to do today…might have lunch with T and then out for pool but that is about it….more later…
