Nothing! I did absolutely nothing today. Okay, I sucked on the bitter teat of disappointment.
Let me start at the start. Last night Lisa told me that she was having a girlie day with Michele. They were going to take a drive up to Whistler and I wasn't invited. When I finished doing cartwheels in my head, I said "Awww Honey, I wanted to be trapped in the back seat for five hours while you guys talk about shoes!" When you add in the fact that Michele has gone through a nasty breakup, and as I would be the only one in the car with a penis, I feared I would bear the brunt of Her/their anger. (Think mob mentality.) On the other hand I believed the NFL regular season was starting this weekend. "Have a great day Sweetie, and give my love to Michele."Then I stayed up until 5 am playing a stupid computer game.

When I rolled out of bed at 12:30 pm Sunday afternoon. I discovered that the NFL season doesn't start until Thursday. I was so looking forward to a full day of football. I tried to slake my thirst with tennis, but it couldn't take the bitter taste of disappointment out of my mouth. Or it may have been the coffee! The coffee pot was full of cold, five hour old coffee that Lisa had made before she left. I nuked and drank it as punishment for being a moron.
Lisa has been on me about overdoing my exercise program, so I took the day off. By the time I had done my morning rituals, (Shower, shave, curse the Poop Fairy) it was after 2pm. I
made myself a tuna salad and had lettuce wraps for lunch.

I packed up my guitar and headed over to Momma Lee's to force feed my brand of noise on the helpless seniors. Momma Lee's hair is getting shorter by the haircut!

I usually play for an hour or so then give way to the staff for Bingo. I'm a big draw today. They don't turn on the TV in the main room during the afternoon. So it's me, or stare at the wall! Kidding, most of them have a TV in their room. Once they are in front of me they're trapped! One lady, Kay, is my biggest fan. She always sits up front beside Mary the music critic.

Mary; " You can stop now."
Kay; "You don't have to do what that one says"
Mary; " Play Jet Plane"
Leaving on a jet plane it is. Just in case she writes a review!
Momma Lee is the time keeper. "It's Bingo time, stop!" She says with panic in her eyes. I always play a couple more while they move the audience to the dining hall.
I went home and did nothing. Picked at my guitar a little more. Emptied the dishwasher, so Lisa doesn't beat me when she gets home. Mostly I slipped in and out of consciousness. With the help of some baked goods. I was roused from my dream state by the shrill ringing of the phone. "I'm on my way" Lisa said "The bitch in the box says I'll be home at 6:30" This is what we call my "Ho" warning. If I have any Ho's here I'm supposed to send them home now. I had already cleared the dishwasher so I was in no rush. When I went to let the dogs out forty minutes later, someone had made a huge mess in the kitchen! Shit! Tuna cans, rotting lettuce, mayo, and tomato shrapnel that had been sitting there since lunch. GO GO Gadget Squatch. I finished wiping down the counter just as Lisa pulled into the driveway.
Lisa filled me in on her day. They had a good time. They stopped and had lunch somewhere and then they did something else and then they blah blah blah. Tennis was starting to look good!
"Let's go to Tentatsu" Lisa said, pulling me out of my self induced coma. It was 9:00 when we got to the restaurant. As we're making our way to the window seat I hear, "Squatch?" It's a Guy, Rob, who I haven't seen in twenty-five years. He used to play with a band called Pacheena and lots of other bands. We caught up and traded info. You can't know too many musicians.
Lisa and I split the Teriyaki Chicken dinner and a couple of rolls.

We took the long way home, going over Burnaby Mountain. It has a nice view of Metro Town from the Parkway. When we got home, I went to bed without writing a word. I was up at 8 and am going to do my workout right now. Oh yeah, Weigh Day. I'm stuck. I feel really good, my clothes are fitting so much better but my weight is virtually the same. It is what it is.
That's all I got.
Till next time
Peace out Y'all
