Weekend Randoms
Howdy Folks! How was everybody’s weekend? Good I hope. Mine was pretty uneventful so this might be short for a change.
On Friday, I went to the gym and broke all previous records. I ran non stop starting at 7.0 mph for 1 mile. Then I went up to 7.2 mph at the 2nd mile. At the 3rd mile I went up to 7.5 mph which is 8 min per mile. At 3½ mile I had to take it back down to 7.2 mph. My total time/distance was 4 miles with a total time of 33.0 minuets exactly. That works out to 8¼ minuets per mile. Which is a vast improvement from previous time and total distance ran at a single time. So I am pretty happy about that. Which also turned out to be the highlight of the weekend.
Saturday I was pretty sore, which I usually am after a run like that. My calves were killing me. So I did a whole lot of nothing that day. Watched a couple of movies on USA network and just screwed around the house all day. I watched the Bourne Identity, with Matt Damon, I had seen it before but it was a pretty good flick. Then I took a 2½ hour nap, which was pretty sweet!!
On Saturday night I stayed home and watched National Treasure with Nicholas Cage. I have also seen it before but it kept me entertained even thought it was a lame movie.
Sunday was yard work, which I used to like to do but after 3 years of living in this house I am kinda getting tired of doing it but it is good exercise, I guess, at least that is what I keep telling myself.
Before I could get started cutting the grass I had to get ride of the gas that was left over from last summer (gas does go bad, and if you try to use bad gas you will screw up your engine, that’s a FACT!) I went to Quicktrip on Westport Road then to the Ace Hardware (Remember Ace is the place BITCHES!) just up the street from there. Then to Sonic for some breakfast at 1 in the afternoon. At Ace I had to get some 2 cycle oil for the blower and the trimmer, the mower uses standard gas just like you put in your car but the leaf blower and the trimmer both have 2 cycle engines which means you have to add the oil to the gas. I also picked up some seed (no homo!) for the yard. I had some left over from last year but I don’t know if I could still use that or not. Besides a bag was only 10 bucks.
After I cut the grass I got out the trimmer. I tried for 30 minuets to get that fucker started and with a lot of cussing I gave in to the fact that it was dead and now I need a new trimmer. That trimmer only lasted 3 seasons and of course it’s just out of the warranty. So I have that going for me. Shit.
I started my taxes Sunday about 4:00 I was done my 7 but I think I must have missed something or screwed something up, because I own money this year, which just can’t be possible. So my brother the attorney is reviewing them now.
I have found a new template that I am going to switch to later this week I know I said I was going to do it last Saturday but my heart just was not in to it. I also know that I said I was going to put it to a vote, well that idea never worked out either. I have 2 posts I have started but have not yet finished that I hope to get posted later this week.
I am aware of the blogger meet up that is going on tomorrow at Harry’s Country Club but I have not yet decided if I am going or not. If I do go then I will not be there until between 8:00 or 9:00. But, I probably should go at least to give the dudes the opportunity to punch me in the face, and the girls the opportunity to kick me in the nutz, for leaving offensive and inappropriate comments on their blogs. But Whatera! Besides why do I feel like the new kid in school and this is the freshman mixer where I will be the one dude that will not know anyone but everyone else will know everyone and non one will talk to me. Boo-who.
Why is it that some of the blogs in my BlogRoll tell me when they have new post and some don’t? Furthermore, why is my blogroll sometimes working and sometimes not? Does anyone have another solution other than Blogrolling?
My monitor is totally screwed at home and it gets worse everyday. For example, this guys site at work is mostly brown, but at home its black. And I can’t even read this dudes site because the text is so small it looks like wavy lines on a page of white paper, but at work its just fine.
I will be running out side tonight so if you are in the neighborhood of Mill Creek Park, or 45th and Roanoke around 5:30 or 6:00 please don’t run over me. Its a 4 mile route but it has some hills so I am shooting for a time of 35 min flat.
That is all I have to say about that! So much for short post, ya’ll have a great week and thanks for reading!
