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…

February 5th

Well…it was a long day yesterday with me not feeling well until late in the day but it appears that I’m a little better today…even being sick didn’t keep me off the bike, though, and I had a nice long ride…it may be that I feel better because I took the bike ride..who knows? It was a little disappointing that the Wings lost last night but I didn’t stay up to see the end of it…I was up later than normal but still couldn’t make it with the 10pm start….okay, need to go start some laundry so I’ll have biking clothes…that’s done…it’s a big sports day today with Man U and Chelsea this morning, then Michigan Michigan Sate at 1 and then some football game later…I wonder if I’ll get sued if I use the term “Super Bowl”…it will be interesting to see…that’s about it for now…I will be going back into the paper again later for some topics….but, I need to read the online stuff first…more later…

February 4th

Well…must have had a bug yesterday because I feel better today even after being out shooting pool yesterday and having a couple of cocktails last night….as I said, I did win again at pool but Tom gave me 4 out of the 7 games so I really can’t feel that good about it…but the weather is holding so I feel great about that..I did read that the first 5 days of Feb are normally the coldest days of the year but it’s going to be almost 40 again today so there will be a bike ride…maybe I should start counting down to the first of March when I consider winter to be over…if all winters were like this one, I could take it just fine…not much to do today…have the coffee and papers waiting so I’ll do that first…and then I’m not sure..I’ll try to get back later for another one…

Okay…I was lazy today…

Well…I don’t know why I felt so rotten all day but that feeling took away my ability to come up with a topic that I felt strongly about so I didn’t….I did go out and shoot pool (and won another week) and now I’m waiting for 7 pm to come so I can have a cocktail…I was going to apologize for not getting a second one out today but I am ahead for the month so I don’t think I’m going to…it was nice day to ride the bike today…okay….this one is not what I wanted to do so I’m not going to finish it…I will be back tomorrow to try it again…

February 3rd

Well…it was a night last night and I had fun out with K for a couple…and then it was a cocktail night so I feel a little crappy today…but the Wing won so that helps…a little….nope, not feeling it so I’m going back to the couch for a while to have some more water…

Okay…starting to feel human again after lunch and a bike ride…still not 100% but I feel so much better than this morning…still think I have a bug of some kind since I am just so tired even though I slept okay last night…I was a little happy that the Wings won again last night but these west coast games are just killing me…not much to do today..I am getting ready to go out and shoot pool with Tom in a couple of minutes so I should start getting ready…I may be back for more later but I’m not sure…it will probably be later, though…

February 2nd

Well…another night of no cocktails and I feel okay today…I did get a bunch of things done yesterday so I feel good about that and it was good to see G for a few minutes last night….didn’t sleep too well again but I guess I’ll just have to get used to it…I did get a bike ride in yesterday and they cleared the ice off the trail that I crashed on last week so that made my day…it looks like another good one today and I am looking forward to getting out again…might have pool with Tom today or HH with K so I will have something to do later no matter what happens…and the Wings play again tonight so the night is taken care of, too….not much to do today..oh, already talked about that…but not about having to get groceries and then the normal stuff….I will be back for later….I hope….

February 1st

Well…another month gone by and I’m still idling, looking for work with my hope for ever finding work again slipping away as the days pass….but I won’t let it get me down…there is still life to live even thought it’s not the one I ever expected…and it was a no cocktail night last night so I feel okay today…still trying to sleep and might have to go back to the OTC sleeping pills for a while…I think part of the soreness that I have been feeling lately is from all of the tossing and turning that I do at night…the sheets were twisted into a rope after last night….the Wings did win last night but I didn’t see the third…it was just time to hit the sack when it started but that is the problem with west coast swings….the next two are 10 pm games and that is just way too late to see the whole thing…not much to do today…have to run a bunch of errands and then back her for more of the same…there should be politics for later so come on back….

Oh, it might be warm enough today to get back on the bike….I hope the 50 plus weather has melted the snow off the trails…I guess I’ll find out later this morning…

January 31st

Well…another night gone by and with it the month…I did have fun out with G for a while but then back here to just veg…I can’t wait for the Wings to play tonight, it has been almost a week since they played last and I have gone through withdrawal…it looks like a mild day today with 50 for the high and I am a little disappointed that there is snow on the trails and I can’t go ride….but, it’s a countdown now for the end of winter and surviving February is basically my only goal….not much to do today…I will probably just clean and put the papers out for recycling….okay, not feeling it again so I’m going to quit and come back later…only one more to go to meet the goal for the month so maybe I’ll make it a good one…

January 30th

Well…another day, another night, another morning, and they are all running together to the point that I’m having a hard time keeping track of what day it is….but, that is part of being old and unemployed and I’ll just have to get used to it…didn’t do much yesterday but watch the race and veg so I don’t have a lot to report…so, I’ll come back later and report it….not feeling it right now….

Okay…just got done with some work on C’s house and back here now to get back into the routine for the day…I do need to have lunch and then I’m going to work out and send some resumes…it looks like another wasted day but I’ll do my best to at least amuse myself…and I will come back for a political one later…
