Just Singing In The Rain
My old friend called me today and asked me if I wanted to accompany her to the dog park so she could exercise her 2 dogs. I agreed right away. I was really excited, because I was really bored and relieved that she still wanted to be my friend after all. We stood around at the park and let her dogs play a bit, but heavy rain sent us running for the car. As we were running to the car, I couldn't help but laugh and smile. I tried to contain my laughter, but I just couldn't. I felt like a kid again - playing out in the rain. I must've had the biggest fucking grin on my face that anyone has ever seen. Luckily, she didn't seem to notice. She had later plans to have lunch with her boyfriend so I only got to see her for about 45 minutes, but it was a lot of fun and cured my boredom. I guess maybe we will stay friends.
On another note, I'm still searching for a decent anime to watch or manga to read. I've gone through list after list of suggestions that people made, but I haven't found one that seems interesting enough. Death Note was my first anime and manga and a lot of people say that Death Note brought hope back into their eyes for anime and manga. So... I guess, I have Death Note on a pretty high pedestal. There are just certain qualities about it that I like and haven't found in a lot of others. Things like...
1.) How the characters look like people and not like the typical anime style
2.) An intelligent plot
3.) Something besides fucking ninjas, robots, or samurai
4.) More guy characters than girl characters
I don't know... I'm probably being too picky. Plus, I'm still a bit obsessed over the whole LxLight thing... really obsessed. And I'm getting more obsessed over MelloxNear. Jeez... I need help. :P
(Actually, I take it back what I said about Death Note being my first manga. My first manga was .hack, but I didn't really enjoy it too much. I think I only read half of the first volume before I gave up on it.)

the flesh is weak
What better way to spend an evening than laptopping by the glow of the Christmas tree lights while watching trashy celebrity news, eating jujubes, kittycat cuddling and warming one's feet by the fire? It's that kind of nasty rain-soaked night that leaves your bones cold long after you've come inside. I woke up with a headache that Tylenol hasn't quite slain -- though it's taken the edge off, I can still feel the pain lurking on the sidelines, plotting its return. It occurred to me that it's probably the lingering effects of the wine I drank last night -- which is pretty sad, since I only had a couple small glasses.
On Wednesday nights my roommate and I have our "date night," which consists of having dinner and watching America's Next Top Model. We take turns cooking and buying wine with the rules that we have to try a new recipe every week and must give the non-cook the opportunity to veto the choice in case it's something they really hate (so far not a problem, since neither of us have met many foods we don't like). cricker81 outdid herself last night with Pork Tenderloin With Onion-Balsamic Sauce and light scalloped potatoes. Yum!
Working a split shift tomorrow with YMCA volunteering in between -- which means 14 hours divvied up between 3 gyms. Huzzah! With all that gym-time on my hands I better damn well get a good workout in -- I tried this afternoon, but my aching head and general wine-related weakness made it a write-off. Between a half-hearted half hour on the elliptical, a few lazy crunches and the feeling that one more push-up might result in total organ failure, I've had better days on the fitness front. C'est la vie!
Going Green
Was up most the night with a raging headache.
I'm driving B. today .... first to the doctor and then to Yreka for a leg waxing. She phoned last night just delighted as hell that it was raining ..... now, if you've been paying attention .... this (the rain) does not make me happy ..... her delight just made me cry and get angry. Today its still raining ..... and I'm thrilled I get to spend the day with B. who loves this stuff. ***sarcasm***
Its going to be a long day of errands for me as well.
A phone call yesterday afternoon from someone needing a person to sit with their 96 year old mother on Saturday added to my agenda today of things to get done as I will have to go and meet them and be told what to expect.
Dave will usually turn on the weather channel first thing upon waking in the morning ..... has done this forever ..... then sometimes will flip through channels just listening to the morning news here and there. One of his favorite morning shows is The Daily Buzz on the CW channel ..... and I have to admit that when its on I don't mind watching. It can be funny.
This morning they were asking a general question "How did you spend your stimulus money?" ...... and the reply from some guy in Ohio was in my opinion classic ..... but then my sense of humor is sometimes much different then most.
His reply? "With my stimulus money I went and bought myself a 1/4 pound of mother nature. I'm going green!"
This little statement alone will have me giggling to myself all day. So a big "THANK YOU" to the dude from Ohio for making my day. Smoke on ......
Peace. J.

Another rainy cold day outside.
So, what to do ..... when gas is $4.37 a gallon and you live in the middle of nowhere?
Not much.
A list of thing to do before we leave very early Thursday morning.
Clean room /bathroom
Shampoo living room carpet
Dust / vacuum / clean kitchen &laundry room
Laundry
Shopping for basics / deodorant, soap, jeans for Dave / dog food
DMV to non-op my new car (old car) that I have driven once in seven months
Insurance paperwork to county / again
Yreka on Wednesday ..... Driving B.
Pack for the trip.Remember curtain material
Call Lifeline and get mom connected
Get last of the flowers planted before they die
Get some caches together for finding while over on the coast
And that is more than likely a partial list ..... but its a start ..... so, since its colder than shit outside today ..... thinking I'll start with the deep cleaning of our bathroom / bedroom, get that out of the way. Then we'll see where I go from there ......
Went geocaching the other day ..... forgot to mention ..... got a first to find, so that was a fun distracting outing even if it only lasted about an hour. The same person hid two more caches but they were further down the highway that we will be taking to and from the coast next week ..... so I'll catch them then.
Did you know that the average price per gallon of gas in Saudi Arabia is $.45. FORTY-FIVE CENTS. Yeah.
What I love is watching the stupid news and they will say something bright like "today gas hit $4.00 a gallon for the first time in California ..... " um, hello? Reality check here ...... we've been paying over $4.00 a gallon now for over a month ..... easy.
Bitch all I want .... not gonna change a damn thing. The gas wars of the 70's seem funny now. When locking gas caps became all the rage. Waking up and finding the gas had been siphoned from your tank and you were now dry. Don't here much about siphoning anymore .....
Think its time to get the tires that are much need on the bike so that I can start riding again. Can't say thats a bad thing.
Ok ..... not really a point to this post. Felt the need to ramble I guess.
For those home this holiday weekend ..... enjoy.
But please take the time to remember those that have lost their lives to war and their families. The sacrifice made is unimaginable .....
Peace. J.
