Life continues unabated. There’s nothing I can do to stop it. It’s like being on a roller coaster: you’re strapped in and the wheels are in motion but there’s nothing you can do but hold on and enjoy the ride.
Planes are flying overhead. Why is it that they only seem to fly on days when the weather is beautiful? Don’t they fly in the rain?
I did my taxes tonight. Yes, I realize it is literally the last minute. I’m not sure why I took so long to do them. I guess the whole “being out of work” thing threw me for a loop. I wonder how long I’m going to be able to procrastinate with that excuse? Not much longer.
Yesterday I started mowing my lawn and it started to rain. Then it stopped. I continued. Then it started again – very lightly. I wanted to get the front yard completely done so I didn’t look like a psycho who only cuts half of his yard. It was raining light enough so I finished the front yard and then put the mower away. Tonight I got home from work and finished the back yard. Weather was bright and sunny.
Had drinks and appetizers with the President of my company last Friday. There were other people there (5 of us in total). I was a little taken aback that he was there. He’s a very soft-spoken man who speaks with a Spanish accent (he’s from Colombia – not Columbia) so he’s kind of hard to understand on both accounts.
I found a whole cache of CD’s the other day that I hadn’t yet imported into iTunes. A few of them were ‘Best of’ or ‘Compilation’ CD’s which made for a few duplicates that were easily removed. iTunes got one of the covers wrong and I had a heck of a time trying to remove it.
Slowly, TV is returning to normal. Some of the shows that were postponed due to the writer’s strike are back. I’m waiting for one of the shows to make a joke about it. Like “Man, it feels like I’ve been on vacation for months”… something like that. So far, they’ve just picked up where they left off.
G-lady had to move apartments due to some recent flooding in her area. Maybe a month ago there was some heavy rain and her carpet was soaked. So the complex moved her to another apartment. She had been in that same apartment for 10 years. I was over at her new apartment over the weekend to hook up her computer, VCR and DVD player. She was glad to have a nice, new, clean apartment to play with. She got some new furniture somewhere along the line and gave her old stuff away.
That’s all for now, more later.
