The lazist of days

Sunday. A great day for nothing. Watch football, go in hot tub, read the paper. Just a relaxing day. No yard work cause summers over. I actually like fall for the yard work being over. Winters coming. Won't be long now.

Carpe Diem

A movie experience

I had to write as soon as I got home. We went to see "Gravity" at the local IMAX theatre. In 3D. This movie was not a movie. It was an experience. You have to watch at IMAX in 3D and you WILL be part of the movie. You actually think your in space. Sandra Bullock was amazing. I can't say enough. Go see it. Not a movie to watch at home. It's meant for IMAX or theatre.

Enough said

Still recovering

I have not gone out yet to bike since falling over the other day. Maybe this weekend.

Going to see "Gravity" tomorrow. 3D and IMAX. This should be amazing. I will post after seeing this.

Relaxing and watching the news, which I should stop watching. The fear mongering is getting tiring. Hoping to see this government BS over with soon. I think when the next election comes up, we should vote out everyone that is in office. We should start over and see if new politicians will work with each other the way they should. Nothing else to say. Republican or Democrat, lets work together.

We are getting a new family member in a couple weeks. A ragdoll kitty. To hopefully be a friends with our springer spaniel, Molly.
She is a friendly dog that goes to daycare 3 days a week. Yes, daycare. But since she has been going, she seems to be more relaxed especially on the days that she goes.

Riding a bike can be dangerous

I love to ride a road bike.  I go out as much as I can. Yesterday I rode 25 miles. Out in the country area around my house, where there are 5 foot wide shoulders for the amish. I pass them every so often and they wave back. About 3/4 way thru the ride, I stopped to call my wife and tell her I would be later than I thought. I have clips on the pedals so I unclipped one side so I could stand and make a call. After leaving a message, I put the phone away and got ready to go. I forgot which pedal I unclipped and began to lean to the right. Unfortunately the right one was clipped. After yelling several obscenities, I fell over on my shoulder, hip and knee. I just laid there awhile and felt around to see if I broke something. Nothing broke, I laid there about 10 minutes. Its amazing that I could hear people walking around but no one stopped to see if I was OK. I finally got up, and went on my way. I had not fallen with clips until that time. So in the future I will unclip both just to be safe. At 58 I could not fall too many times without breaking something.

I hope the government is fixed soon.

Carpe Diem
