Well…it was an okay day yesterday but, with all of the sports on, I didn’t get much done….slept okay but I am really sore today and that is disappointing since I thought I was past that…oh, well….today looks like another sports day with F1, a nascar race, and more soccer on so I may not too much done today either….but, I may take the day off the bike since it is going to rain in a little while and I’m not sure I want to go out and get wet….and the wind is blowing pretty hard in front of the front coming through and that always make it work….I do need to clean the kitchen and vacuum today and it I get that done it will be a good day….do have to cook some more chicken I have marinating in the fridge but I think that will be the end of my work for the day…oh, and one more of these…more later…

June 6th
Well…it was a pretty good day yesterday and I won at pool, finally, so that was cool….made some cash, too, and I had a surprise lunch with T that made me smile some…so that’s why it was a good day…and I have all of my chores done for the day…except for cleaning and it’s not even 8:30 yet…slept okay and feel okay today and I am looking forward to getting on the bike today….I did get a nice surprise at Meijers this morning….they had chicken leg quarters on sale for 29 cents a pound so I bought two 10 pound bags…yeah, that’s a lot of chicken but at 29 cents a pound? There is just no way I could pass that up. So, I think it will be chicken today instead of the pork loin that I planned on….maybe both? Not much to do today…it is a huge sports day today with F1, soccer, horse racing and more races so after about 1 I am going into complete veg mode for the day….more later….
June 5th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so that was cool…not going to talk about sleep since I’m not sure it exists anymore…it may be like a unicorn…a mythical creature that only exists in fairy tales….so, that said, I am running a little low on energy today that I am hoping the bike ride will cure…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and that will be the case today, too, since it is pool day…I do have some things to get done around here but the cleaning will wait until tomorrow….my legs are much better but I am having a lot of trouble getting rid of the pain in my neck…and, no, that’s not a person…it’s just this tightness that is really annoying…I’m hoping that the bananas will help with that along with the cramps in my calves…not much to do today…oh, already talked about that…more later….
June 4th
Well…running a little late today and it’s another one of those days where I just can’t get started…only slept about 4 hours total last night so that makes the energy level way too low…and, I had to do the grocery run this morning so that set me back, too…no dreams to speak of other than about self done haircuts…yeah…that is pretty weird but I’m not sure of the context of it so I can’t draw any conclusions…the funny thing about not sleeping last night is that I got a text from T after 1:30 and I was up to answer it…that doesn’t happen very often with the earplugs I wear to sleep….didn’t get much done yesterday and that makes the spiders a little bit larger today…will need to get rid of them soon or I won’t be able to get in the bathroom….not much to do today….no record run on the bike since my neck is hurting and I just don’t feel like it without getting much sleep…..but, I will get something done today…not sure what that will be but something….more later…
Going for a new record…
Well…haven’t found anything to write about today so I think I’ll just talk about an idea that came to me while out on the bike today…as you know, I broke the speed records on the bike last week and I think I’ve about hit the top speed for this bike…just not enough gear to get going faster…but, there is a record I set last year that I am going to take a crack at in the next few days. Last year, I did the full 15 mile ride in 56:42…aided by lots of coffee and no wind and I think I have it in me to try to break that one…probably should do it soon since I do nothing but keep getting older…I do have to prepare for it this time, though…need to over eat for a day or so and get lots of bananas to keep the cramps at bay….the legs were good today and it felt good so I think it may be Friday that I’ll make the run…could be tomorrow if the weather holds…stay tuned….
June 3rd
Well…running really late this morning and I feel like crap so I am a little confused…was good the past two nights so I guess it must be allergies…slept okay but no dreams again….okay, that boring so I won’t talk about that…didn’t get much done yesterday but I will today…need to do the kitchen and the spiders have grown larger so I need to get them out of the bathroom….not much else to do really but get a bike ride in…thankfully, the legs are better but I have been getting cramps in them the past few days so bananas are on the grocery list for tomorrow….didn’t win the Mega last night but someone did so there goes that last little shred of hope….not much to do today…going to shift into slow mode today and just sleepwalk through cleaning but that is about it…more later….
June 2nd
Well…running a little late today since I just haven’t been able to get going…and the computer is giving me fits again but I think I have that fixed…and, we tied at pool for the second time in a row which is really weird….slept okay and had some dreams that were too boring to tell so I won’t…and, it’s frickin 42 degrees? In June? just can’t take this crap and forgot to put the heat on for the second night in a row…so, it’s cold in here and I’m having hot coffee to try to cope…it just on principle that I won’t put the heat on now….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and probably won’t today either….just can’t get moving….but I will in a few minutes when I start the workout and then get on the bike…more later….
June 1st
Well…running really late this morning and I have an excuse this time…my internet has been down all morning and has just come back up…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…and today looks like more of the same…I did shave my beard off this morning just to see what it looks like and I’m not sure if I like it or not…I don’t have any lips and it looks kind of odd…but I do this about once a year and think I’ll just let it go for a while….slept okay last night and feel okay today so that’s something….I do have to get the workout in and then I’m going to wash the car since it is not going rain all week and it is still pretty cold out there so the bike ride will have to wait until after I get back….might have pool today so that is something to look forward to if it happens….more later…
Filler, filler, filler…
Well…might just as well admit it in the title that this one is a filler to make the quota for the month….not much going on in politics right now so I haven’t had a lot to write about…oh, the Patriot act may expire tonight…I hope Rand Paul keeps his promises to kill the damn thing and just get rid of that monstrosity of a law that has done more to destroy civil liberties in the US than anything else….it’s the most hated day of the month tomorrow…don’t even want to think about paying the rent…so, I won’t…going to do a GOT marathon tonight starting with the first episodes…didn’t see a lot of the early ones so I hope I can find three or four that I haven’t seen….and, I am going to make it a cocktail night since I am so bored…I am going to make tacos for dinner so I guess I should get to it…there…made the goal!
Whitecaps on the puddles…
Well….it has been a cold morning but I did get out on the bike but not without some issues….got about 2 miles out and the bike just didn’t feel right so I stopped and noticed that the bolt that holds the swingarm on was loose, leaving about a half inch of play in it…so, I had to come back here for that repair and it made the bike so much better….it just hasn’t felt right for a while now…it was almost impossible to go in a straight line with it but that is fixed now….yay…but, that’s not what this one is about…well…kinda…on the ride today the wind was blowing almost 30 mph from the northeast which made parts of the ride just brutal…there were times that I was just stopped dead by a gust and that is just no fun….with the wind blowing that hard…I laughed when I saw there were whitecaps in the puddles on the trail today…..one more to go…
