Well…I’m one behind for the month so I thought I’d do one on the weirdness out on the trail today…yep, cheating like crazy but this is my site so I get to do whatever I want..on the trail today, I saw something that I thought was kind of weird…there were 6 dead baby birds on the trail…I mean so young that they didn’t even have feathers yet…but the strangest thing is that they were not near any tree that held a nest they had fallen out of….like they were just dropped from the sky….then, there is the just born crop of tiny bunnies who have not developed any sense yet and were just shooting all over the trail…some of them were even just sitting in the middle of the trail watching me as I went by…..it’s probably good that they have so many of them, these were so stupid that their lives will be short….

Well…running late again today and I know the cause today, stayed up late watching a live concert by John Fogerty and didn’t get to bed until 1:30…and was back up at 6:30 or so…hmmmm…so why am I late? I did go to Meijers to get some stuff I needed…maybe that’s it? Who knows? I did sleep okay but I’m still tired as heck so maybe a nap later…did go out for a couple with G and she was in a mood to go so maybe that’s it….The wings play a game 7 tonight but I’m not going out to watch…it’s just no fun watching with a bunch of strangers and spending money to do it….it was a wet day out on the bike yesterday and I came back mudded from head to toe…going to need to do some maint on the bike since the dirt has made the shifter stick between gears and that is just annoying…I need to work out and get back on the bike so I should get going…more later…
May 28th
Well…it was a day yesterday and the Wings lost so that will be the end of watching for me….just don’t like going out by myself and spending money so Wed’s game will be spent doing something else…slept okay last night but forgot to close the window when I was out so I had to turn the heat back on when I got home…I wonder if we will ever have summer…or even spring…I did get the bathroom cleaned, finally, but that was about it…other than the air filter for the car….not much to do today…I do have to go over to the post office to get my mail since they said my mailbox was full and took all of my mail…I am really irritated about that since my electric bill is in the pile and I need to pay it….on that note…I am going to finish the coffee and get in the car….more later…
May 27th
Well…it was a long day yesterday with all of the races and I just couldn’t get motivated to do another one so today looks like I’ll have to do four today….there are a few things going on to comment about so it shouldn’t be that hard…slept okay last night but three cocktail nights in a row takes a lot out of me…I did make some money yesterday so that was cool and I can get groceries again this week…I do need to get going so I’ll be back later for more….
Okay….so I’m back…it has been an okay morning…did finally get the air filter changed on the car and did the rest of the checks…still can’t believe that I have over 4,000 miles on the oil change and it has still not used any oil..that from a car that has 156,000 miles on it…pretty cool…and I did get a bike ride in…and after using about half a can of WD-40 on it, it didn’t squeak…so that made the ride much better and my back is even getting better…still have to go out to watch the Wings later since they are still on a channel I don’t get….oh, well….
May 26th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but the Wings lost so I am a little disappointed…but, had a nice cookout with G so that helps…and today is the biggest race day of the year with F1, Indy cars, and then stock cars later in the day…and I do have to wedge in a bike ride in there somewhere…probably before Indy at 11:00…and then cookout with chicken thighs and shrimp wrapped in bacon…yummy….slept for crap last night since I stayed up to watch a movie until one and then back up at 6….so, there will be a nap involved at some point today….and maybe back for another one since we are coming to the end of the month….
Just some stuff…
Well…not much going on in politics other than the fake scandals so I thought I’d just update on some stuff that has happened…first, hurt my back being an idiot on the bike today…over a big jump and on landing, I could feel the pain run down both legs and it continues now after 4 hours or so….hope it will go away a little…not sure if there is major damage and the ibuprofen is helping so probably not…I have to remember that I’m going to be 60 here in a couple of months and I just can’t do the stuff that I used to…don’t like it one bit but maybe will have to accept it…the Wings can end the series in Chicago tonight but I don’t think they will…the Hawks have been too good all year to lose 4 in a row but we only have to win one of the next three so I have hope they can do it…it would be nice to get it over tonight, though….have been prepping food this aft for dinner at G’s before the game…bacon wrapped shrimp skewers that smell pretty good and that will be grilled along with the steaks and asparagus….yummy…wish it was a little warmer, though, would be nice to hang out outside….okay, that’s it for now….have to watch the rest of the champions league final….
May 25th
Well…it was a busy day yesterday and I am feeling it today so this one is going to be short…lost at pool but it was a good series so that was fun…it’s tough to go straight from lunch with T to pool and more beer but I survived it…slept okay last night and had the weirdest dream…this one was about buying a large container of milk…something like two gallons and finding half a human skull in it….yeah…have no idea where the heck that one came from but it was quite strange…not much to do today…going to cook out at G’s later and then watch the Wings but that is about it….and I do have to come back here for one more since I was lazy yesterday…more later….
May 24th
Well….running late again today and it was really by choice…wanted to get the papers read and some coffee first and that is done so now I’m here…it was a long day yesterday with going out to celebrate G’s new job and that meant there were some shots involved…needless to say, I am feeling it today and need to get out on the bike to get the cobwebs out…and today looks like another busy one with lunch with T and then out to shoot pool and maybe drinks with K after….I did get the new tires on yesterday and they are so much better than I expected…they just seem to smooth out many of the bumps that crashed before and are so quiet compared to the Blizzaks…I am pretty happy so far but will withhold judgment until I get them out on the e-way….okay…I do need to get out on the bike so I’ll end here…more later…
May 23rd
Well…running really, really late today and, this time, I have a good reason…made some cash yesterday so I went out and had new tires put on the summer wheels but that is not the only reason…I have just been taking it easy today..still haven’t even gotten through the papers yet but I have just worked out…slept okay last night but not as good as I should have with it being a cocktail night…I guess even the little stress from the tire appointment had an effect…not much to do today…I am going out to have a couple with G later and watch part of the Wings game but that is about it..oh, and cleaning, as always….more later…
May 22nd
Well…it was an easy day yesterday and I didn’t do much…I did go out and get the parts to put front brakes on the car…the pedal is just too hard with the old ones and it was only 20 bucks…I may even get them done today if it stops raining….slept okay last night but had to take a sleeping pill to do it and that means I’ll feel pretty crappy most of the morning…but I was good last night so it’s not as bad as it could be….and I did need to sleep so I guess it’s a good trade off…not much to do today…I am going to make the grocery run this morning since I do want to have cocktails tonight to kick off the holiday weekend….more later..there may even be two more today…had a couple of ideas that I put off that I want to get to…
