February 15th

Well…it was a normal day yesterday but I made a little cash so I can at least get groceries this week….and the Wings won their 21st straight home game last night to set a record for the league…I have never heard the Joe so loud as it was last night and now it’s looking forward to Friday to make it 22…sleep was better last night…still not great but better, and with it being a no cocktail night, I feel okay today….but the underlying fact that I’m broke again kind of limits how good I can feel…it is just so wearing to have to worry about every penny all day every day…but, that’s how it is for now…not much to do today..might have lunch with T but that is still up in the air for now…that’s about it…I will have a few new ones later in the day…not sure of the topics yet and they might even be interesting…

February 14th

Well…another night with just being bored around here and I wonder why I can’t sleep if I’m so bored….but that was the story last night with being up at 2,3,4, and 5 so I’m really tired this morning…I haven’t looked out to see if it snowed last night and I don’t think I’m going to…skipping coffee again today since it costs me 6 bucks a day to get it and the papers…I do miss it, though, but maybe I’ll make a new routine that involves making coffee here and making do with the online papers…I guess it really is hermit time for now…not much to do today….I do feel the need to accomplish something today so I think I’ll start getting rid of some stuff and do some cleaning….I will be back later for at least one…

February 13th

Well…a long, boring day yesterday that culminated in some cocktails so that was okay…but, I feel like crap this morning and my brain has not started to work yet so this is going to be a short one…I need to conserve what little cash I have so coffee and the papers is out for this week along with going out with G…it looks like a hermit week unless things change….be back later for more…

Okay..it has been another day today with some surprises and I am late getting back here for more but I did come back…did decide to go out and shoot pool with Tom but I am in debt again since I’m too broke to buy booze….I did win at pool so that was a plus but I haven’t been able to come up with a topic for today but maybe Keith will do that in a few minutes….who knows? If I can’t come up with one later…I’ll promise that I’ll try more tomorrow…

February 12th

Well…another somewhat boring day yesterday but I survived it with a little creativity…and every horizontal surface in this place has been cleaned so I feel good about that…and State beat that school in Ohio…and Everton knocked off Chelsea which is always a good thing to see….but there is not much to see in sports today other than the Wings playing later that I will have to watch on the computer again..but that’s not a good thing since they have lost every game that I’ve watched on Versus…I did have a repeater of a dream last night but I don’t remember what it was so it wasn’t one of my favorites…not much to do today…I do have a pork loin that I am going to make with some roasted asparagus but then I will have to be creative again to keep the boredom at bay…and, since I’m broke again, I’ll have to make do with things around here…and try to stay up until 11 to see the new episode of Ab Fab…probably won’t make it but I’ll give it a try…more later…

February 11th

Well…it was a fun day yesterday even thought it snowed…didn’t get the bike out and now it looks like it will be next week before I get on it again…I did get out for a couple with G last night and it was a chore coming home with all of the ice and snow…I didn’t get back here for a political one yesterday and I don’t know why..I just didn’t have the outrage necessary, I guess but I will try to do better today…not much to do today…it’s only 6 degrees outside right now so I do need to warm the car up before I go out for the papers…then I’m just going to clean this place up and do laundry…yeah, exciting, I know…

One thing I forgot to mention is the soccer day that is going on this morning..just watched Man U beat Liverpool and Chelsea and Everton are coming on in a few minutes…and I really want Everton to win since they have 2 Americans on the team and it is good to root for Tim Howard and Landon Donovan….oh, and it is only 5 degrees outside but I was out cleaning off the car in shorts..kind of a badge of honor but there was no wind so it didn’t feel that cold…I am going to try to come back and do two later but who knows?

February 10th

Well…it was a day yesterday but there wasn’t much to report….just the normal crap and more rejections of the resume…so I had cocktails last night and slept pretty well…I guess that’s a good trade off…but it looks like the weekend is going to be somewhat of a bore with K out of town and being broke…but I do have some new recipes to try that will keep me somewhat amused…and there is a Wings game tonight to look forward to…not much to do today…I want to get one last bike ride in before it goes extremely cold for the next few days and I may even have the shifters fixed…at least it shifts when the bike is upside down here but if it doesn’t work out on the trail I’m going to be a little irritated…more later…

February 9th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday with getting out to play pool, which I won in a championship game…and the Wings won last night, too so that was great…it was a no cocktail night so I feel okay this morning…I think that dislocated feeling I had yesterday was caused by not eating enough but we’ll see today as the day goes on…I did have a really weird dream about East Grand Rapids and donuts that cost 50 dollars for 4 of them….of course I told them they were nuts and wouldn’t pay that much so there was a police chase that ensued, then I woke up….yep…I am strange…but you knew that….not much to do today…I do need to get a few groceries since I am going to make a homemade chicken penne alfredo this weekend…I will come back for a political one for later since I kind of slacked off yesterday and I do need to keep up….

February 8th

Well..it was another no cocktail night but still no sleep so I guess I feel okay today….but I’m not thinking clearly yet so this one may be short…it was a nice day yesterday but I still don’t have the shifters fixed on the bike so it is getting a little frustrating but we’ll see when I take it out today….okay…I do have some things to do today…going to go out and shoot pool today…I’ll be back later to finish it…

Okay…have been out to get coffee and read the papers and I still feel really strange…like I’m disconnected from the world and really weak….might be not eating enough or it could be that I only slept about 3 hours last night with all of the tossing and turning…whatever it is, it is really disconcerting….and it’s not getting better….maybe I’ll feel better after I work out…more later…

February 7th

Well…it was a nice day yesterday except that the Wings lost….had the night off since G had homework to do so with no cocktails, I feel pretty good this morning…and I had this repeater of a dream about flying into some isolated Italian island where you have to twist and turn the small plane extremely violently and, in this flight, the pilot actually scraped the side of the plane on the rocks coming in… could have reached out the window and touched them…pretty cool. Oh, and I forgot that I had the nicest lunch with T and that left me smiling the rest of the day…I did get the bike cleaned, too, and I think that has helped the shifters some…but, I’ll see later this morning when I get out again….not much to do today…more resumes, of course, but I have enough leftovers that I don’t have to cook so that is a little disappointing…I will be back later for more…

February 6th

Well…it was a long day yesterday with all of the sports and the bad thing is that every team that I was rooting for lost…but that is the way things are and I won’t lose any sleep over it…I did have dreams last night that included running through the campus at Aquinas looking for my car with stops in all of the halls….not that interesting, I know, but it was something…feel a little crappy today with it being a cocktail night last night but I think more of it is the bug I’ve been fighting off over the past few days…I do need to take the bike to the car wash this morning since the shifters are so full of dirt they barely work anymore and that is a pain when you need a different gear…not much to do today…well…I do nave some things to do..lunch with T and then out for a couple with G I think…but that is about it… more later…
