Back from the sticks

Thursday was the Actuary Exam, which was a freaky deaky crazy thing where I had to sit for four hours and crunch calculations. Glad it is over now.

However, right afterwards, my friend was waiting for me out front. He picked me up and we went straight into the woods for an overnight backpacking excursion. This time, we were a little...

Gettin' cold around here

... and for me, the mountain man, to say that while living in the city, that's a lot. I just know that when I wake up in the morning, it's hard to get out of bed because of the chill. I must admit, I really love this kind of weather. There's that crisp snap of something in the air. The leaves...

Why does the heat make us so tired?

It's been so damn hot here and I'm not sure if it's the heat, or the exhaustion of a week's work, or the baby keeping me up and running, ... probably a combination of all that... I took two naps today. Once in the morning before leaving the house, and again when I got home.

It seems...

It's time to retire

I can no longer afford to continue this account. All my friends who I hold so near and dear, I must bid you all farewell. It's been a great ride, and I may be back here someday, but I can no longer pay the fees to keep the account going.

For those who wish to contact me outside, email me at...

Bummer, dude. Things are tough right now, I guess. They will improve - as I have seen countless times. Good luck keeping your head right in the interim.

And call me, fucker! Still got my number?

Cheers!

Tired

I really need a nap. The baby is too energetic and won't let me get a moment's rest. I would like to sleep.

The house is a mess again. I can barely stand up, let alone do dishes or sort laundry. Clothes are everywhere... stuff is all over the place, and out of place... so behind... can't ... catch .. up......... zzzzzzz.....

welcome to the hiking group! Sorry I'm the laziest group owner ever and don't check it enough. I'm going to try to organize some local hikes as soon as it gets a little cooler.

Hot

Every day I come home to my apartment, and it's over 90 degrees inside. I'm sweating all the time. It's either dripping off my forehead or making me sticky all over, like a postage stamp.

I'm tired and going to bed, but I have to take a cold shower first.

moan and groan

Okay, so I've got the single-man's funk going again. Isn't that why the 'net is so popular?

The heart is lonely, the mind is bored, and the pelvis has way too much energy for its own good.

I spent the week recovering from my trip last weekend, finishing off with a long afternoon nap yesterday. My holiday weekend is pretty full of...

wow i just read your whole damn entry and want to go camping.....(getting lost can be half the fun)

once on a break at my old job, the other people I was working with managed to get lost in the woods with 13 kids with a dead walkie talkie. It was annoying, they called in the search and rescue, the police and the ambulance, and the whole time I was telling them I know where they are, I've been lost on that trail many a times and they made me stay behind. 8 hours latter with many crying children they found them where I said they would be....

The Guitar

The last time I went to Tahoe to visit my parents, my father gave me an old acoustic guitar that he found at his mom's place. He didn't need it, and I really wanted to play, so he just said "Here, take it if you want it."

Always a dream, but also a challenge. Was I finally ready to embark on the endeavor...

I really like your writing lately...makes a place for emotion, which is not easy.

If you want to learn how to play anything you want to play and learn how to make songs yourself, you take your guitar and you go to where a crossroad is. A big black man will walk up there and take your guitar, and he'll tune it...

I believe Robert Johnson sold his soul for some Hellish guitar licks, don't believe that is necessary in your case wink
