Okay, my tummy is slushing around like a half full
tank of gas.  I picked up a terrible stomach flu.  I was
incapacitated for about 15 hours.  And it was BAD.
Seems like every time I went horizontal i wanted
to leak and there was no time to spare in getting
to the water closet. 

I keep looking at my empty bird cage and thinking
i need to get another bird.  I'm thinking that i'll get
the typical budgie, (parakeet). Or maybe a pair.

The diabetes is slowly taking hold, i have frequent
urination and blurry vision. 

I took the car to the shop and i paid $ 150.00 for a
tune up.  The result is that the car is worse now than
it was before it went in.  I replaced parts, plugs and
rotor, and cap, and wires...  No improvement at all.
I was really looking forward to some improvement.

Well, Friday was supposed to be the CW (Morse -
Code) class and i missed it cause i was sick in bed.
Now I just have to ask myself, do I really want to
commit to 2 hours a week and a drive up to Airport
Blvd.  Of course I looked up the place on a map, 
and there will be friendly faces there for sure. Ha ha. 

The problem with warming the car up for 15 minutes
in the morning and 5 minutes an hour later is that it
burns up a lot of gas.  I'm going thru 2 gallons to
warm up the car.  It's kinda disgusting.  I have
thought about selling the car back to the state of CA.
and starting over.  I heard there's a deal, cash for
clunkers.  $ 1,500 for a running car.  That's not far off
from what i would like to get for it if i were to sell it.
I get so many compliments on it, you wouldn't believe.
I was thinking that i could probably ask $ 2,500 for
it.  That may or may not be a pipe dream.

Since I've taken up the pipe i only seem to smoke
my tobacco every 3 or 4 days or so.  I would like
a nicer pipe, a clay pipe maybe, or one with a bend
in it like Sherlock Holmes uses.  My $ 10.00 special
is pretty hokey.  Well time to edit and surf off to
somewhere else.
