Solo Riding--lunch break






After taking lots of pictures this morning at Hollywood Studios and getting my own car on ToT I took the walking path from the studios to the Boardwalk indenting to head straight over to Epcot but I got pleasanty sidetracked at Big River. I got the Rocket Red Ale and hickory bacon burger for my late lunch. Ok Big River can make a mean burger. Huge and juicy full of flavor cooked to order. Served with chips unless you ask for fries at 11.99 a good bargain because the burger was huge. The Rocket Red Ale packs a punch of flavor it has a deep red color and heavy mouth feel, it is sweet with a clean finish. Thank you Bruce for asking me to have one for you. I am a new fan of this one.

More testing of new apps

Messing around more today. I am at work, but I need frequent mental breaks so as to not fall asleep. Also I need to see if this will let me post a picture. Testing things out for my sister. Doesn't hurt that it is fun too. Just a little something I made with my iPhone. Is there anything we can't make this thing do?

new blog...lots of work.

So I have been working on my sister's new blog www.growingupdisney.blogspot.com lately and have completely forgotten about my own blogging ideas. It's ok though, I am writing for her. So I still get to let my creativity out; however, for her it is a bit more structured. We (she decided for me) have decided to turn our interest in all things Disney into a blog about our lives and the way we have been effected by Walt Disney. I certainly believe that we have been improved by our experiences in the parks. So I don't know how often I will continue to write for myself, but I hope to keep a running tally of the fun we have making *OUR* blog.

What was I doing again?

On any given day you can find me sitting quietly at my desk working but in such a fashion as to have been mentally checked out for a while. I don't know what to say about it. Just have other things on my mind. Today I spent almost an hour thinking about where I might have gone wrong, how did I get to be sitting at this desk and how can I get out of it without losing my job. Sure millions of people do that everyday, so nothing special about it right... Well that is right, I am probably not even unique in the fact that I write it down into stories and poems. Well it is what it is....this thought is being completed weeks after it started.... 06/01/2010
Also my other problem is what I like to call ADD, but in reality I just lose interest easily. I would say it's my fault but that isn't what kids today are taught to say. I think it's all hogwash, but that is neither here nor there. Fact of the matter is I AM changing jobs at work. However, it is forceably. So the job that I acctually enjoy is being tossed aside so that I can join the other drones and hate my job. Isn't this a wonderful world. Life isn't fair sometimes and some people want to boo hoo about it. I think my best option is to go ahead and do the job with gusto and be keeping an eye on a way to get out, while making myself look good. Yeah, that seems like a good plan.

Lazy Sunday

Spent the whole day still unpacking boxes and cleaning and doing laundry. It really is going to be a never ending process. I have to do laundry nearly every day because the stacked washer/dryer is I think about 1 cubic ft. So it only holds a couple of shirts and a pair of pants at a time as well as some under ware and socks. So in order not to spend all day doing as I have been doing I wash at least every other day. Today was a little different because I am washing my sheets and that has thrown off the schedule. I have found an interesting flaw in the washing and drying system. The condo does not vent the dryer outside so I have a special little dryer box attached to the end of the dryer vent. Lent does not come out and get on anything, but all the humidity is now trapped in my place, fogging up the windows and on a positive side heating up the place. So in order to counter the humidity I need to open my front door. Not a big deal right now because the weather has been relatively nice but when it gets warm out or the bugs start showing up, that will be a new set of problems to encounter.

What was I thinking...

Well, Happy Day After Saint Patrick's Day!

The universal day of mourning the loss of good motor and decision making skills. Yes, I did go hang out at a local establishment, but they had a pipe band and a band that did some traditional Irish music.... So you see its not my fault, that is like a sirens call to me. I am proud to say that I drank plenty of water because this guy is not getting caught with a DUI (see this guy has become a responsible adult...sort of..). You meet interesting people at bars, people that you more than likely wouldn't meet anywhere else and if you did, well; then they still wouldn't be the same. No matter who you are, there is a 99% chance that you are not the same person at work that you are at a bar, unless you're a bar tender then that has a different set of rules altogether.

As much as I would love to just sit here and ramble on about nothing, my day awaits me to go to my local courthouse and take care of homesteading my taxes (see responsible adult). So I mustn't waste such a day, I have to get out into it.....SLAINTE!!!
