Well…with the end of the month rushing up, I do need to cheat a little to make sure I don’t miss the 62 necessary to keep the sting alive…well…not alive since I did have the problems with the servers for the site back in March and missed that one by a bunch…there has been some good news in politics lately with the ship finally starting to turn our way…it will probably take until 2016 to clean out the nuts here in our legislature and regain some sanity and caring for people that the repubs have even quit faking…and maybe even make Snyder go away…we can hope anyway…just had a nice lunch with T…good to see her and have an adult to talk to…not sure what else to write…but, this will get me toward the goal and cheating is okay for that….back later for more….

October 28th
Well…it was another uninteresting day yesterday but the Lions won so that is something….didn’t do much except watch sports…I did go out to meet up with the new car club but no one showed for the drive so I just came back here and vegged…slept okay last night but I am still tired today and sore…both elbows are now hurting and it is really no fun…and I didn’t come back for another one so now I am really behind for the month so I have to get it in gear and get a few of these done today….I may have lunch with T today so that may be something to look forward to….but, not much else….I really hate getting to the end of the month but you know that…more later…
October 27th
Well…it was a dull day yesterday but I did get the bike ride in so that is something…slept okay, too, but still feel a little crappy from cocktails that I think will go away after the ride this morning….at least I hope so….there is really not much to report on yesterday so I’m not sure what to write about today…I am going to go and meet up with a new car group this aft for a color tour and I hope they are not as old as the folks in the Miata cloub…I am the young guy after all in the Miata club and I am tired of hearing how many houses, cars, etc, that they own….okay…not feeling this right now so I am going to finish the coffee and get out on the bike before it rains…more later…
October 26th
Well…another day gone by with nothing to show for it….I did win at pool but it was mostly that the luck has returned and that is okay…I need a little luck right now…it was just another night last night, too, getting pretty boring just sitting around here every night but I do need to conserve cash so I guess that is all I can do right now…tonight should be better with a Wings game to watch….not much to do today…I did get behind with not coming back for another one yesterday so I’ll have to do a couple more today…not even going to cook today since I have leftovers to use before they spoil…and I do have some smoked fish that Tom gave me that I am going to have right now…bagels, cream cheese, and smoked fish with coffee as I wait for the rain to end so I can get a ride in…
October 25th
Well…it was a long day yesterday but I had some fun going out for a couple with K…but, that led into cocktails so I do feel a little crappy today…and sore from head to toe probably from the windy, cold bike ride yesterday…my elbow continues to get worse and that is a surprise…all the other joint pain I’ve had has gone away after a few months but his one has been there since April and I am getting tired of it…oh, well…not much to do today..pool, of course but not much else….I am going to wait for the temp to come up before I get on the bike so that will give me some time to take some ibuprofen and I hope that will help on the bike…more later…
October 24th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday and I finally got the thermasuit figured out so I didn’t freeze on the bike….and I am running late since I did have to get some groceries today and gas the car up…still haven’t had the nerve to find out how far below empty I can go on the gauge…the old car would cough about 2 miles before I ran out of gas…probably not something I really need to know…one needle width below empty should be far enough….slept okay and don’t feel too bad today but part of it may be I may have things to do this aft…definitely going to meet up with K later but might even have a meet up with T…although the one sched for yesterday didn’t happen….it was a little disheartening to see the snow falling on the way to groceries today…and to having to warm the car up to melt off the ice…way too early for that to happen…not much to do today…I’ve already said what may happen….and I hope it does…will be nice to get out of here for a while….
October 23rd
Well…it was a strange day yesterday and it was just more of the survival mode that I have been in lately…and the ice on the car this morning didn’t help….but the coffee is so I am going to try to get a few things done today…not sure what that will be but I think that will sort out as the day goes on….might have a meet up with T later but that looks a little iffy right now…slept okay last night and had some really strange dreams but they are really jumbled so I won’t report them now….feel pretty good today and it was a smart move yesterday to go with a half thermasuit on the bike with a stocking hat and gloves…will have to up that today since it is going be cold before I go out…..but the wind is down so that will help….not much to do today….I do need to clean a little since my cooktop is kind of greasy from all the cooking but that is about it…more later…
October 22nd
Well….it was just another in a long line of boring days yesterday and I think I’m shifting into survival mode..can’t remember the last time I had a good day that gave me a reason to smile and the fact that it is going to snow over the next few days is landing on my head like a large piece of lead…it would be nice if it was Led as in Zeppelin but that is not the case…it was a no cocktail night last night so I do feel okay today but I do need to stop the sleeping pills that I have been taking for over a month now…so, tonight looks like that night and I am gearing up for a night of no sleep and a bad day tomorrow….but, it has to happen some time so why not now? not much to do today…It looks like it will be full thermasuit on the bike today and that is not anything I am looking forward to…but, I will be back for more later since I really don’t have anything else to do…more later….
October 21st
Well…it was a kind of crappy day yesterday and the malaise I have been feeling has gotten worse…which makes it kind of tough to get anything done…but, what do I have to get done? Not much, really…slept okay but I think I may have a bug of some sort…just can’t account for having so little energy and my head has been stuffed up…so, maybe it’s a cold? I think it didn’t help that all of the Michigan teams looked crappy and the Tigers just stunk along with the Wings….it looks like I may be able to get a bike ride in this morning and then I have a few errands to run and some stuff to do around here…so, another boring day in a long line of boring days…more later…
A little bit of trail coolness…
Well…it was much warmer out on the bike this morning and I did see something that was really cool….stopped at the top of a hill in Kentwood for a water break, and an animal came onto the trail from a hole in a fence that runs along it..at first, I though it was a big cat…but, when the second one came through, I recognized them as a pair of foxes….one took off down the trail and then the other one chased it for a ways but then turned around and came back toward me before both of them took off through the woods….and, the weird part is that Tom and I were talking about them a few weeks back and I couldn’t remember ever seeing one…pretty neat…and my hands were not frozen when I got back…
