subject of yet another day
I came to the conclusion earlier that I have been in a kinda pessimistic mood today, and as soon as i realized that I felt a lot better. And I dont know where to go. And thats ok. So here is what has actually been going on.
The past couple days I have been going to the Y to swim laps as a little physical therapy via me. I have really been enjoying the time that I have been spending there. Unfortunately I did not get to go today, but I did try a little running..even if it was pointless and maybe even a little counterproductive. haha. Yesterday was a pretty good day I would say. I did not, and still have not, get very much done in correspondence with the insurance company(State Farm) and court processing. Hopefully, that will all change tomorrow morning as that is when the accident report is supposed to Finally be completed. I did, however, go to the casino and pick up my check and tips. I got to talk to Sandra for a minute or two, which was pretty cool, and then she gave me a cookie. Not just any cookie though. This cookie was the size of my HEAD. It was a very Chewey cookie, macadamia nut and white chocolate I believe. I was driving my new truck that i just bought.(yeah didnt know about that did you?) Anyway I was driving back down 90 last night when I realized that I kinda wanted to eat my cookie with someone...at waffle house..with coffee. I know..narrow it down huh? So I called Rebecca Faircloth right as she finished packing and asked her if she could meet me there. We had a good time chit chattin with each other and random Waffle Housey's. One in particular that I would like to mention though. Ed. Ed is about to turn 62 years old in a couple weeks. He was wearing the stereo-typical clothing that one would associate with a homeless character. Large green jacket layered on top of multiple other articles of clothing, holy jeans with long johns on under them, and very holy shoes that looked a little big..and all of this was covered with spots of crusted dirt. His hair was completely gray and thinning and on the inside of his nose in the corner of his left eye was a very large growth perhaps a mole. As I was waiting for Rebecca to show up I stood at the jukebox picking music and talking to Ed. Then kinda randomly Ed says, 'I have something that you might want. I bought these for myself previously but I can not use them at my job.' and out of these layers of clothing he pulls these sunglasses and hands them to me. 'I spent forty dollars on these, and i don't want them to go on being unused. Here.' After a quite a bit of bickering about accepting them, and let me pay you for them, let me give you something for them, lets flip a coin to see if you should let me give you something for them..I finally allowed him to give me the sunglasses. And off he goes on his bicycle. I have been looking for sunglasses for a long time. How thankful that I have finally found some. And not just any. These are pretty nice. I like them. So Thank you Ed. But its not just the sunglasses. It makes me happy to see this 'no strings attached' giving. It was good.
Something else that was good was the bit of dancing I got in on last night. Before hitting up the casino for my money I had gone by to see Jennifer at the studio to complain about not ever getting to dance anymore. Well a couple of the others that were still there decided that they kinda felt the same. So Jennifer, myself and about 6 others all went into the 'back room' and turned up the music and broke 'it' down. It was fun.
ps. the truck. the one i bought for $500. It is really big. And really green. Kinda dirty. Anyone seen it before?
