and another night bites the dust

that is, another night is ready to end (quite early, in fact) cuz the sleep mode is calling out to the brain and the cold bug is kicking the body around some tonight... perhaps it was the chill of the 5k this morning or the anger over the idiot on the road or the wandering in public mall and eating in public restaurant adding exposure to the reduced resistance and therein fueling the bug, but whatever the cause, the effect is runny nose, burning eyes, and general malaise...

today started with a 5k with E and her old friend Brian (and my friend too) who moved back down here from Virginia recently and then i was heading to softball practice when a bumper fell out of a truck (cuz it was not secured properly) and the car ahead of me hit it and spun it into me and i hit it with my right front tire and it blew out my right front tire (and the truck just road on, idiots) so i changed the ire to the donut and went home and cursed the world for the new expenses (cuz the tire needs replacing and that was one of the good tires so i'll need to buy four now and i was hoping to not have to buy any until i finally decided to buy a new car) and ate and napped and that was the day so far...

then went shopping for a bed for E tonight (cuz sleeping on the coach is not only not good for her back, but also not good for the living space as i don't go to bed as early as she does and she is a light sleeper) which is unfortunately another expense... yeah yeah, we know i never wanted to be rich enough to actually do something about getting rich, but it seems i always find ways to give away money instead of buying stuff i want or actually saving toward some sort of retirement... but i love the giving feeling as you know maybe too well, so i keep doing it... and tonight i bought myself a bed too (yes, two beds, which used to be normal married folk once upon a time, aye?) and another present as i bought her stuff... we need to get sheets and a fan tomorrow and then the spending should slow down to a steep stop...

dinner was another splurge in calories and cash as we went to red lobster, yum... and then home to relax in the living room with music and the computers (remember when people would read together?... gues web browsing is like reading so it is similar, appropriate for the ADD generation)... and so that was the day that was and was it good in the end, yes...

hope your day was and is smiling more than frowning too :)

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
