It was so sunny and beautiful outside just a little bit ago. So what did I do. I decided to move the patio furniture and chairs and put some towels down on the deck and lay out in the sun….guess what happened…that’s right folks. As soon as I laid down, the mother of all clouds hovered above me blocking out all hope of sun. Fuck. Well rather than get (too) upset, I decided to do the next best thing. I went to the tanning salon. So there ya go. Big ol’ middle finger to you mother nature!
Last night I laid down for what I thought was going to be a disco nap, but it turned into an all-nighter. I must have been really tired.
I guess not much has been going on in my world lately. I moved to a cubicle next to a window recently at work. I feel special. Oh and I got an award for doing a good job externalizing an application server. A $50 gas card. I thought that was cool.
Sammy and KC are as annoying as ever. Love em to death…but it is getting harder and harder to walk them. I bought a new leash that has a rubber grip on it, so my hand no longer gets burned…but it is still a huge workout to walk them. I’m thinking about taking them both to obedience classes. Sammy is on some medication now to get rid of his parasites. Hopefully he’ll get a clean test here in another couple of weeks. If he stops eating dirt and licking water off the deck that is…
I’m trying to patch up some missing grass areas outside. But now I have a feeling that wherever Sammy has chosen to pee now will be the new bare spots.
Yesterday I was outside weeding and mulching in the front yard. The neighbor arrived home and got out of his car and complimented me on my work. He said it was looking really good. Then he told me sarcastically that I was really going to ‘love’ those cottonwood trees. Then I said, uh, we moved here in May of last year…so we remember the snow-like cotton fall that was going on when we were moving in. Anyhow. Then he asked me if I was into basketball. Uh, no. Then he started blabbing on about some team he liked and that the games don’t come on til 10pm. ok… Well just when I thought it hadn’t gotten awkward enough, he decided to start taking down the christmas lights he had on his bushes…yeah it is May. I know it’s tragic. Had he not noticed those were there. Thank god I ran out of mulch…so I ran away and didn’t come back for awhile. I sooo never have anything in common with most people, and I’d really just rather not deal with them.
I remember when I was younger thinking, why the hell can’t they make a vending machine that actually takes bills…you know what I’m talking about. The fact that you had to uncrease and manipulate the bill by see-sawing on the side of the machine and it still wouldn’t fucking take it. Combine that with never knowing what direction you are supposed to put it in because the picture is worn off….Well somewhow I missed it. Because most vending machines I use lately (only the ones at work really) take bills really easily, and you can put it any which way you want to….hehe. Just one of those things I noticed today. I need to stop taking the little things for granted.
It’s beautiful out today. I swear reading on weather.com that it was supposed to thunderstorm and shit. Maybe I dreamt all that. It was pretty early in the morning.
I took the pups for a crazy long walk today and they still aren’t worn out. As I’m typing this outside on the deck steps, they are snarling and wrestling behind me. Damn you Caesar Milan and your advice that doesn’t seem to work. My friend Andrew would agree with me.
Wow there was just an ant on my keyboard. I’m not a fan of bugs. I need to make a mental note (or a blog note I suppose) to find a pet friendly bug deterrent for around the house-I wonder if one exists. And don’t tell me to use cayenne pepper cause that doesn’t work.
So I’ve been chatting on gay.com a lot lately. I know it’s kinda strange…I hadn’t done it in years…but I guess I’ve had this urge to feel somewhat attractive. Sidebar-I recently lost about 20-25 pounds in like the Nov-Feb range, and have been doing pilates and yoga and trying to be more active. But all the guys that talk to me on gay.com are scary. And they say shit like “What are you into?”. And I just want to type “Uh, not talking to creeps like you.” I did put a couple of pictures up…there have been a couple of occasions where I will mention to someone that uh…no pic…and they say I’ll send you one through email. Keep in mind that I use my play email account for moments like these…but then I get pics of guys spreading their assholes and cocks galore…..NNNNNOooooootttt what I had in mind. p.s. I won’t post them here…cause that would just be weird.
Speaking of weird. I’ve went out in Lima, OH a couple of times recently. There is some hot mess of a gay bar there. But I’ve actually had a lot of fun on the occasions that we’ve went. I’ve recently re-connected with an old friend, and I’ve went with him…so that probably has something to do with it. That and the self-esteem booster that comes with guys hitting on me.
I don’t really know how a innocent post turned into me being a big dick tease online and at the bar…but ah well. Just being honest. I think my readers would respect that 
The dogs are driving me crazy. Love em and all…but I don’t understand how they can have so much energy. We went for a long walk and played outside forever…Then I had to give them a bath because they stank. And now they just decided to roll around in the dirt to get all the clean off of them. Damn them. I feel like I’m getting eaten alive by mosquitoes (hmm..I didn’t realize there was an ‘e’ in there like potatoes), but i haven’t caught one on me yet. Perhaps I’m just paranoid.
I love having a deck where I can sit outside. (It’d be nicer if Mike would help me get all the patio furniture out :-\) It is beautiful out tonight. I have no desire to sit inside and watch tv. Although it is kinda lonely by myself. I suppose the dogs are here…and the cats sit and stare out the screen door and sniff the air and listen to the birds overhead. It’s so nice having a quiet neighborhood, and I don’t go in my back yard to see some shirtless old guy in the alley fixing televisions and yelling at “Angel, Shut up!” at his dog every few minutes. Although…been there with k.c… the shut up part…not the fixing tvs shirtless part. Ugh could you picture it?
We are on our way back from shopping in Toledo. I really wish it had been as nice this weekend as it had been on Friday. I’m very ready for summer. I took Friday afternoon off and just laid out in the sun and got all pink and crispy.
Shopping is exhausting. I start to get really annoyed when five different people ask me if I need any help finding anything. It’s obnoxious. Not as bad as best buy, but still bad. We totally had to stop at the Irish pub and I downed a beer… That made me sleepy and hungry though.
I got some cute clothes though. All for work pretty much.
I was so bored last night I watched this movie on showtime called material girls with the duff sisters. Wow it was even worse than you would imagine. I don’t recommend it. Then I watched the zodiac…which I thought was the one with Jake gyllenhaal. No the ‘the’ really made all the difference. I don’t recommend it either.
