After a busy Friday and Saturday, today will be a little quieter and calmer....which is just fine by me.
A nice big roast just went into the oven. In a couple of hours I'll add the potatos and onions to the roast. I'll make a salad and I've got ice cream for dessert.....sounds just about right for a Sunday dinner to me.

My internet connection is a little wonky this morning. On and off, on and off....one of the disadvantages of living in the country is....no cable connection available!
A few personal changes are beginning to take place. I'll not elaborate, since they aren't very interesting. But, they are things I need to make changes in....for my own health and sanity.

i thought the ultimate male luxury was a blow job? leather seats? coffee served with a smile?
just playing.
the thing about change that always gets me is how big that very first step seems. and also what incredibly necessary ingredients motivation and capability are.
yes, i have two younger brothers and a set of parents that have been married for 30 years. they're good peeps. my mom really knows how to push my buttons though, so in the interest of sanity, i try to keep some distance between us. i do wish i saw my brothers more often, but at least we have e-mail! and my dad is a wonderful wonderful man, who would probably disown me if he knew half the stuff i do. so... that's tough. but yeah. it's family.

Why is it, that you can sometimes sleep for 10 hours and it only feels like 10 minutes and sometimes you can sleep for 10 minutes and feel like you've slept for 10 hours? OK, those both may be a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the point.
I had the one where I slept, but don't feel like I slept, last night. Actually,...

Well, everything I had thought about, that I could write to my journal since my last entry has gone away...I'm drawing a blank again. Guess I need to start writing these things down as they come to me. To much stuff flows through my head each day, to keep a couple of tidbits locked in there for future reference and journal writing.....at least that's the...

I loved her set and video too, she seems so relaxed and happy and really smart too not to mention gorgeous 
You really aren't one of those creepy guys at all so dont worry! Yes, it must be terrible living in areas where these kind of natural disasters can be frequent. I always forget what I was going to write too..

Yeah exactly!
I got in a nice ride on the bike yesterday afternoon. It was cool enough, that I almost needed a sleeved shirt or light jacket and I got sprinkled on for about 5 miles. It was a wonderful ride and quite a change from the depressing heat we'd been having.

Hey Sabre! I see that you haven't been around lately either.
How did your cricket dilema work out? Remember that it is bad luck to kill a cricket
.
There has to be a way to catch him. I haven't figured it out yet, because we have one at work that chirps like nuts every damn morning. We also have those huge roaches running from here to there, and I always scream, even though customers might see.
I hope you are doing well. Sorry I haven't been around much. Youare always in my thoughts, though.

Oops! It's been a few days since a new journal has appeared here.....not that anyone besides me has noticed, I'm sure. Didn't have much time for the computer over the weekend....which was not such a bad thing, since there were other things to occupy my time.
I was looking for a particular CD last night and it took me awhile to find it. I need...

If I ever visit you, you know you will have to have buckets of popcorn and whiskey.

I guess I'm going to have to do the right thing and fork over the money one of these days.....building a CD storage rack is just not in my future.
we badly need two CD storage racks at my house too. must be in the air or something.
additionally, messes that don't smell bad are just really hard to take care of *right this minute*. especially if it's just an old newspaper. you'll get to it!
Just a couple of random observations today.
I wish someone would come up with an easy and good way to clean out ear wax.....we can put a man on the moon, but we can't build a home device for cleaning our ears.
Why can't some people recognise, that when grocery shopping, you need to keep your carts to the right and observe the same thought...

I have to say that I wholeheartedly agree about the ear wax. I'm not even kidding.
I like that pic from 76 for a couple of reasons. It has a very innocent look to it. I was born in 76. I love seeing pictures of people at different stages of their lives.

erotic dreams are great. except when they leave you with a frustrated reality. there must be some way to reconcile.
yeah. you knew i was just putting the pictures together in a silly narrative, right? ck and i are actually both really clean individuals. and records all the place don't really bother me if you're doing something creative. so yeah. just a silly story.
vanity... pride... those are good thoughts. thank you. i appreciate your ideas very much.
isn't KikiBH ^^ the cutest! i sink so! my internet friends are really the coolest people on the internet. totally.

It struck me funny this afternoon while out spraying some weeds, that I've seen some of the weeds that I was spraying, in hobby stores....dried and painted of course....to be used in flower arrangements, crafts, etc. It seems ironic that I was spending money and energy to kill them, while someone else is selling them and making a profit off of them. I have a...

Aw, that's a funny/sad story about the sunflowers. Even in a time of tragedy, the irony would make you want to laugh.
Thinking is overrated, that's why I don't do it often.

I never really thought about sunflowers being a weed. I have such a black thumb that even the sunflowers I planted died!
I have missed you, my friend. I have been going through a rough patch, but should be back around here more.

Ok....so both sides of the family have had their great annual reuinions for the year....no more stuffing myself on all the great food that everyone brings.
Seems like this week has lots of things to be done. How did everything get put into this one week? What alignment of the stars dictated that this week be such a busy one?
Summer is beginning to fade....fall...
