Who's a Fat Bastard - Just One of Those Days!

May 19, 2014

     I don't know what has gotten into me today. First of all I slept till 10:30. I never do that. I feel like I missed half the day. On the other hand, the Poop Fairy woke me up with enthusiasm. Starting to get the trains running regular, but off schedule. Thank God I'm a light sleeper.

     Then, feeling very smug and pleased with myself, I decided to take the day off as a reward for my good Weigh Day. Not my diet, just my workout. Evidently, I pissed off the diet gods.

     It started with not having coffee filters. No problem I like instant and Lisa used a French Press. She also used all the boiling water... it seemed.  I stood there silently fuming, waiting for what had to be weeks for the kettle to boil. As the steam billowed out of the kettle I turned it off and poured the boiling water into my waiting mug. That Lisa had kindly filled with the last of the boiling water from the previous kettle. I was planning on washing the kitchen floor any way. I should have waited.

     After my second cup of Java I decided it was breakfast time. Now normally, I have pretty good hand eye coordination. I have fried eggs thousands of times. Tell me. How do you do that? 

How not to fry an egg!

     How do you completely miss a frying pan with an egg? It's not like I was playing lawn darts. I wasn't chucking them from across the room. Oh well, I was meaning to clean the stove top any way.

On the bright side, it's not every day you get to have Baby Back Ribs and eggs for breakfast!

     I should have read the signs. I should of went back to bed. Instead I went to visit Momma Lee. 

     Have you ever had something happen, and wonder who the Moron was that did it?  Then you discover, that you're the Moron! I left the sunroof on the Rav 4 open over night. In the rain. Of course! I didn't notice at first. It took a few seconds for the water on the seats to penetrate my pants. About the same time I started moving. All the water laying on the roof came through the still open sunroof, at the same time my butt soaker arrived. The center console was full of water.

Pool in the console option

     Elvis and Nutmeg were pissed because their seat was wet! Like I need attitude from them.

Really, You expect us to ride on a wet seat?

Oh well, I was meaning to wash that any way.

     On holidays the facility is under staffed, in as much as there are no recreational programs being offered. I spent an hour or so hanging a couple of pictures and just keeping Momma Lee company. She prays from 2:30 - 3:00 every day. So she sends me away. Doesn't want to take the chance I'll burst into flames.
     Overcome by guilt I took the dogs to Como Lake.

Part of the trail

Canoes and rafts only

 They have a couple of fishing docks on the lake. There is almost always people fishing on them. I have never seen a fish caught in this lake.

The Family that fishes together, can all get that smell on their hands together 

Ready for quick getaway!

     It's hatching time at the lake and the Gosling are all over the place. The dogs give them a wide berth. They hiss and flap and chase them.

Giving me the Hairy Eyeball!

Safety in numbers 

Quack off Pal!

     3 times around 3k. It took me 41 minutes to do the 3k. That includes a lot of butt sniffing delays. By the third lap, they are bummed right out and the geese are being mean, we move along as fast as their tiny legs can go.
      I got home in time to watch the Canadiens come out hard. 1 - 0 for the Flying Frenchmen. Went to drain the weasel 1- 1. Tabernacle!!! 3 - 1 Rangers , final. Fini!
     Lazy night watching the tube and scanning pics. Lisa surprised me with a steak dinner. Nice strip loin, Medium Rare.

     Back on the Maiden tomorrow and my new 15 rep crunch routine. I can't let apathy creep in to my plan. To many times I've said "I'll make it up tomorrow." When your 57 lbs overweight, tomorrow is today!
That's all I got.
Till next time.
Peace Out Ya'll
