Well…it has been an interesting morning and that is why I’m running late today…had to go to the bank to figure out why my debit card had stopped working…one of the places I used it had a data breach that could have emptied my account…but the bank canceled the card so they couldn’t steal…already have a new one and have it activated so things are back to normal…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t do much but send resumes….and today looks the same although I have already done the grocery run and I need to work out, get the bike ride in, and wash the car….so the aft will be busy…might have a couple with G later but I’m not sure about that…have been good most of the week so I can cut loose a little today….and I will be back later for three to get caught up…need to think out of the box a little for topics since I think I’ve beaten the normal ones to death….more later…

Okay…not sure what is going on but today, I had another bout with the suicide squirrels on the trail that was just like the one in the spring…must have had fifty of them run out in front of me with some of them doing the double…going across, then slamming on the brakes and running back again…not sure what the connection would be to spring but it has been weird to say the least….at least the bike worked well and I didn’t have to make any fine adjustments to the shifter after the cable replacement…might have to lube it, though, since it does hang just a bit…I will have to adjust it in a while to allow for the natural stretching that happens after I use it for a while…and, yes, this one was cheating a little but I am so far behind, I am starting to get concerned…

Well…it was a nice day yesterday even with breaking the shift cable on the bike…and the idea that this time they only charged me three bucks for a new one versus 12 bucks last time…bitched about that but didn’t have the receipt…oh, well…had a lot of fun with T last night going to the MM alumni meet and greet over at Aquinas…spent most of the time talking to the president of the College and that was fun…and free beer helped…even wore my suit and looked pretty sharp…and, I skipped cocktails after I got home so I feel okay today….that’s twice with T this week and that made me smile….slept pretty crappy, though, so I think that will have to be remedied with a nap this aft…but, I do have lots to do today so that might not happen….not much to do today…have to clean this place up and then get on the bike to do the adjustments to the new cable but that is about it…I will get caught up today since I am three down for the month….nope…five down for the month…need to get in gear…

Well…running really late this morning and there is no reason for it…just took a lazy time reading the papers since I do have to wait a while to get out on the bike…too darn cold right now…it was a nice day yesterday with lunch with T and then a veg out for the rest of the day…even skipped the bike ride to let the legs heal a little but that won’t happen again today…I do have an event tonight at Aquinas for the alumni of the MM program…T was nice enough to sign us both up and it will be a good networking opportunity…plus it will be easier with at least one person that I know…not much to do today…other than the event…did have to take the suit out again and let it air out since I haven’t worn it since last year and find a shirt to wear…but no tie..just can’t get to that point yet….more later…

Well…..it was an okay day yesterday but the anticipated episode of “Breaking Bad” was not as good as last weeks…kind of disappointed…slept okay I think but should have put the heat on…it was cold in here this morning…and still is but I just can’t bring myself to turning the heat on…something about the passing of the seasons that I just hate more and more as I get older…but there was a good Lions game that made me smile and a nice long conversation by text with T that did the same…I’m sitting here now debating with myself whether or not to work out and ride this morning…just don’t want to get the gloves out yet…not much to do today…may have lunch with T but that is about it….more later…

Well…running about normal this morning and I think that is pretty good after the long day yesterday…270 miles in one day is a bit much in the car…and it was a little cold coming back with the top down…but, the car ran great the whole way at 80 so that makes it better…it was nice to see a couple of the boys again and hang out for a while…and I do have dates for the two weddings that will happen next year…one in May, the other in September….so I guess I’ll have to have the suit cleaned…slept okay last night but I am a little worn out and sore from the car…but, it is only about 50 so I am going to wait to get out on the bike until it warms up…and now I think I’ll head back to the couch for some soccer and coffee…more later…

Well..decided that I’m going to cheat a little today so I don’t get farther behind…so let’s talk about the trail…out yesterday, coming through Kentwood, there were 4 turkeys just walking down the trail so I thought I’d get moving and chase them…didn’t know that turkeys could run that fast…I was going 18 or so when they finally took off and started flying…pretty cool…but, then on the last climb up to the park for a water break…there is this old guy standing behind my bench just taking a leak…right out in the middle of the park…can’t say that I’ve ever seen that before…but the really strange thing is that there is a a restroom not 100 yards away from where he was standing….kind of turned me off using that bench….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday…made a little cash and won at pool so that was good…didn’t accomplish anything else and, as you can see, I didn’t come back for another one so I am now three down for the month…but, that won’t be rectified today since I have to drive over to the other side of the state for one of my sons engagement party…the car has been running great so that doesn’t worry me at all…I am going to fill it up to check the mileage and I may even take it down a notch from 80 just to see what it can get…270 miles in one day is going to be the longest trip I have taken it on and with only an 11 gallon gas tank, it may take almost all of it…tried to take it easy last night so I have some energy today but that really didn’t work so I may have to take a nap before I leave this aft…more later…

Well…running really late this morning and it is just because I seem to be in slow motion today…one of those days where slow is the only speed I appear to have and when that happens, I just need to go with it…so, I will…slept okay but only okay…no dreams to speak of…I have had a nice conversation with T this morning and that did make me smile a little…not much to do today…already have the grocery run done…not really a grocery run but I had to get a can of instant spare for the trip over to the other side of the state tomorrow…going to eat out of the freezer for the next week or so just so I have room for new stuff….I have enough fish to choke someone so that is going to be the priority….need to get on the bike before the rain so that’s it for now….more later…

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…slept okay with some dreams again but they didn’t really impress me so I won’t relate them here….didn’t win the powerball so I guess I go back to looking for work today…oh, well…have been completely out of energy lately and I’m not sure why…have been sleeping okay but maybe not eating enough…but, nothing tastes or sounds good so maybe that has something to do with it…I am a little excited that the Wings play on tv tonight since all of the shows that I like have ended for the year or permanently….I still have a hole from “Burn Notice” ending a week ago and I’m not sure if I want to get that involved in a show again….not much to do today…it is raining right now so I will have to wait to ride the bike until later but that is about it….more later…
