December 15th

Well….cripes, it is cold out there this morning…only 6 degrees but the car started right up so that was cool…and, I do have the booster in case it doesn’t…but, there are so many damn idiots out there this morning who think they are the only cars on the roads…3 near misses on the way out and back to groceries….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but today will be better…need to do some work around here and then some cleaning to get caught up and I am going to make venison tacos for lunch….other than that, it looks like a hibernation day today….have everything stocked up so I don’t really need to go out until tomorrow for pool…have a cough that I don’t understand that started a couple of days back but it is not too bad so I guess I’ll just live with it…at least I’m not as sore as I was…more later…

Idiot semi drivers…

Well….sitting here waiting for the Man U match to start and thought I’d relay something that happened this morning when I was out running an errand….coming back on the e-way, I was moving along pretty good…probably close to 80…running alone and came up on a pair of semis that were nose to tail going around 60…when I got about 50 feet from the semi in the back of the two, the idiot whipped out in front of me going all of 62 miles an hour….when there was a good mile behind me to the next car….then, he proceeded to go 62, passing one going 60, and took the next 5 miles for him to pass…but then, even when he was past, he stayed in the fast lane until I had had enough and started to pass him on the right…then, the idiot whipped his truck back into the right lane….no signal…and almost ran me and the guy behind me over since the guy behind me had had enough, too….now…whey the hell couldn’t this idiot just have waited another 5 seconds to let me by before he pulled out to pass? It seems like every time I’m on the e-way these days this crap happens…I think they need to teach these semi idiots how to drive…geez…

December 14th

Well….have to get going early today since they are going to have the water shut down until this aft…so that means the workout and getting cleaned up for lunch have to happen now….did have some fun out with G last night but there was breakup drama at the bar that went on most of the time we were there…it was a good show but quite distracting….did get quite a lot of work done around here yesterday but today will be a total loss with the water being out and maybe having lunch with T…and, Man U is playing this aft so that will keep me vegging the rest of the aft….and I need that today with overdoing it last night….more later….

Somebody flipped a switch….

Well….where the hell did fall go? I imagine that someone has a huge switch that they turned to “winter” last Thursday and now it’s winter. I was only 36 miles from getting to 3K and now that looks like it won’t happen…crap….oh, and the new people here have to be informed of the protocol for the aftermath of snow days….none of them moved their damn cars and now my parking spot is filled with snow since the guy running the bobcat today was too scared to clear the snow out between cars and left about a foot in my space….they weren’t doing anything else…they could have gotten off their butts and moved their cars like I do to give the guys clearing the snow a little help..but no, and now we will live with snow for the next couple of months…as you can tell, I’m a little irritated today…especially since my car is so small that a foot tall snow drift will fill up the radiator intake…but that doesn’t matter to the damn truck drivers around here…arrrgh….

December 12th

Well…just finished cleaning the car off and that is depressing….must have had 8 inches of snow on it…ick….and it was another wasted day yesterday where I just watched sports all day…but, Man U finally won a game so that was cool…and the Lions won again and that is just too weird….everything hurts again and this time I know it’s not the bike…feel fat and slow with being off it for 5 days now and I now need to shift into winter mode and cut back to one meal a day….and only two days of cocktails…have been coughing a lot the past day so I’m sure I have some sort of a bug but don’t feel too bad so I guess I’ll survive it….going to just veg it out today and take it easy so there won’t be much to talk about…I do need to do a few of these today so I will…more later…

December 11th

Well…forgot to pay my phone bill thurs…damn….first time I’ve ever forgotten it and I think it’s the first time I’ve ever been late on a bill….oh,well….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but supporting T in her long day at the mall with the bell ringers….I do have to do better today but there is soccer on all morning so that will be a total loss…Man U plays at 9 so anything I get done will be done before or after….I do have a cough today but I don’t feel bad so I’m not sure what the heck it is…okay…no, I do feel warm so it must be a cold…and that is weird since I am not around people much anymore….it is supposed to snow all day today so it will be a good one to hibernate….I may have some work to do around here but I may wait until tomorrow to do it…oh, the Lions play today so that will be something to do after soccer is over…and cleaning…always cleaning….more later…

December 10th

Well…woke up this morning feeling a little under the weather and coughing but I don’t feel that badly so I guess I can live with it…the run out and back to pool yesterday was a little iffy with people still not knowing how to drive in the snow…oh, and I won at pool….I really like how the car drives with the snowies on and I hope it will continue in the spring when I get the tires rotating correctly….didn’t much but pool yesterday and I’m not sure what I’ll do today…sure not going anywhere so I guess it will be soccer all day and just vegging….might clean the kitchen as I should but not sure about that…..going to just play it by ear early….more later…

December 9th

Well…after the ham debacle yesterday, the day calmed down into the tedious boredom that it normally is….but, the snow was not a s bad as was predicted so that is something….woke up this morning and my tinnitus was gone for a few minutes and that has not happened for more than thirty years…but, it is back now so that is disappointing….and I hurt again but not that badly so I can live with it…there will be no bike ride again today and it looks like for at least the next week with the highs next week being in teens and that is just too cold for me….didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks the same…just don’t feel like doing much this morning…maybe that will change but I’m pretty sure it won’t….more later….

This sucks….

Well….purposely went out this morning to beat the snowfall and slick roads but that was just the beginning of a weird day…remember that huge ham I got this morning? Well…after I cooked it, I found out it was spoiled and smelled really bady and this place just stinks so badly I think I may open the slider to change out the air….I should have known better since it didn’t have that good ham smell when I took it out of the package…it had kind of a weird smell that I questioned some but thought it would be okay…it wasn’t…and I put the ham and packaging in a Meijers bag and took it back over there…the people at the service desk were gagging at the smell so I guess I wasn’t wrong…but, the big pain is starting all over…having to clean all the dishes I used to cook the ham and gravy and then starting all over…and now I have heartburn like the small piece that I ate is starting to make me sick…just don’t need food poisoning right now…damn…

One good thing…ran into K,J, and S at Meijers and got to say hi…and I forgot some shave gel at the checkout that the Ukrainian woman saved for me and I picked that up, too….
