It’s not much but all of it’s yours
Well another week done and gone. It really is amazing how quickly time can pass sometimes. Its hard to believe how much my life has changed in the last month to say nothing of 6, 9 or 12 month intervals. But unless you have been around to actually watch the changes happen then they are harder to quantify. Otherwise I just get told randomly “Man, you’ve changed” when i run into an old buddy or something. In fact I was told that on Friday night by an old friend. At least some of them seem to like the changes and, most importantly, I am fairly pleased with the changes.
So to continue with a bit of the banalities of my normal posts lets get down to brass tacks. Haven’t done much since last weekend. In fact I spent the majority of this week doing as little as possible. Odds and ends around the apartment, random chores, work, the normal day to day things that make up life. Although I did go out for a while on Thursday night for a few beers and some relaxing. Went out last night as well and met up with a buddy and one of his friends that’s visiting from out of town. Interesting but not as interesting as it could have been.
Work has been busy already although its not really the sort of busy that’s consistent or makes any sense. Instead I am busy taking care of brush fires and dealing with interpersonal issues some of which I myself am a part of. Friday I took a half day and went out riding, Just a nice random cruise to nowhere really. Did a tiny bit of wrenching on the bike but nothing real special. Saturday I took it out and picked up a few things, got it up in prime running shape and took a nice 170 or so mile cruise. Then the headlight died so i got to do more wrenching. Finally got it fixed today which is a damn good thing. Still thinking about dropping about $1k to get a couple of toys for it, like new pipes, new lights (LED lights no less) a new air intake, shit like that. Nothing really necessary but fun things. And a new helmet. I think I want to pick up a nice little half helmet at some point.
Today, aside from doing my wrenching, has been oddly productive and yet lazy at the same time. Really a nice change of pace. Got a few more things to take care of before I head out for dinner as well but its nothing real major which I am loving more then I can really say. Normally I would have tried to spend the last day of summer riding the bike but obviously that didn’t happen and I am actually pretty pleased with the results.
Been considering picking up a few things for my own personal amusement lately. Been using the 30 day list for big purchases but getting impulsive about the smaller stuff. Probably going to pick up a few video games within the next week or two for example. Sure it will run around $140 for them but hey it works. The big things I am thinking about getting are a new palm pilot (fake home phone more then anything) and a macbook for the hell of it. I really enjoy my mac mini so I am giving it some thought.
Anyway, that’s enough rambling I think. I need to go start taking care of things before I head I think. And who knows, maybe on my way back i will pick up a video game or two.
