    For attention from the opposite sex:
    Sometimes I'm on
    Sometimes I'm off

    Sunday I was on...for some reason.
    Today, I'm off.

    C'est la vie
    But maybe some day women will explain it to me. But they don't seem to know themselves...their advice is mostly off with no result.
    I'm always surprised when I'm on...there's no reason or rhyme.
    But I try.

    Let's hope for another "on" day.
    It does the ego good.

    Thanks, mommy.

    Life's a bit hectic right now, work and so on. But I'm doing ok.

    Spent 7 days in the U.K where i stayed in London while making brief visits to Oxford, Bath, Lacock, and Stonehenge. London has beautiful architecture and delicious food, but the city is crowded, noisy and expensive so I might not visit London again. I think my next destination will be either New Orleans, New York City, Vancouver, Canada, Amsterdam, or Copenhagen.

    Women suck as badly as men on opening lines.

    Sorry ladies, despite your own stated desires to get more than, "Hi", "How are you" and "What's up" in your opening lines or texts or emails from guys
    ...something that shows they are more profound, witty or have actually read your profile...
    Turns out many women do the EXACT same thing when they attempt the initiated contact.

    Not that I don't appreciate the contact or compliment, I really do.
    But it ain't that easy, isn't it???

    Give guys a break, we're trying our best.
    We just want to make a connection...just as much as you.

    BTW, please...keep trying to connect first yourselves...I love it.
    Women should be empowered to go after what they want...be bold.

    But don't rag on guys or be overly picky with the first words. It's the click that counts...and the long-term trend.
    We may just be overwhelmed by your beauty to talk. ;)

    looks like today will be a calm day. The weather is perfect and I'm not going outside. I am enjoying my pc and all it has to offer.

    Today was perfect. Low 80s, sunny, almost no wind. Took a ride on the Harley this morning and could barely wipe the smile off my face it was so perfect. Went golfing in the afternoon. I'm definitely better at riding than I am golfing. :p


    Tomorrow is supposed to be basically the same, perfect weather again.


    So I decided to email my boss and tell him I'm taking tomorrow off. The plan is to get up early, jump on the bike by 6:30-7am and not come home until I can put at least 350-400 miles on it. :cool:

    After watching The Long Riders, I had a girl recently tell me her father's family were kin to Jesse James, and her mother's to Bob Ford.
    I jokingly told her she must be extremely conflicted inside, and she looked at me seriously and said, "Yes, I am.".
    I just squinted at her.

    Very interesting seeing a couple of Turkish ladies watch Blazing Saddles for the first time. :D

    Even more interesting explaining some things...

    They liked the Mongo scene the best. (especially the Yes/No on the steer's butt)

    And they couldn't figure out what Lili Von Shtupp was trying to do to Bart. (try explaining that ;) )

    Indubitably. :(

    I'm off in a bit to find out what is going on with my headache. I'm hoping for some answers.

    Also, I wish people would just buy my shit off Craigslist. It's getting frustrating that we live where we can't have a garage sale. Mounds and piles of things that don't look that great in pictures but could sell easily in person. I keep watching for community garages sales, but the "season" hasn't happened here yet.

    I'm guessing that y'all live in a community that holds a "community wide" garage sale annually or biannually. Our subdivision doesn't regulate GSs, but some of the neighbors will inform the civic club watchdogs if folks are flagrantly running a business. The city allows two GSs per year before it's considered a business.

    We've been to a few "community wide" garage sales, and the huge downside for the sellers is most people are trying to unload pretty much the same items.

    Nope. Our neighborhood has none.

    I'm in flux
    ambiguous
    And any other word that describes nothing bad happening and actually good things occurring but there are so many moving factors I don't know how they are going to land or where or when
    ...and there is no right answer nor wrong

    This is not a bitch or complaint, it just is...and I'm just getting the damned thought out of my noggin' and on to something of substance.
    The word defines the reality.

    Sold two cars last Saturday, have sold two today so far. If I get a third that will be a hat trick. I have another appointment today so wish me luck.
