My Dailies 2007

NOVEMBER

Friday, November 30, 2007

First thing this morning what I did was make up an Invoice for a job and then I set out to find a Police station that could write off my fix it ticket.

The first station I went to that I found in my phone book wasn't there no more so I went down the street to the Riverside main Police station. It looked like parking was going to be a problem for about 10 minutes or so,... like I might have to park a mile away or something and then I drove around the station and saw that they had their own parking lot, and even had a parking place for Vehicle inspection.

So once I finally found the place everything went great,.. and the girl that helped me there wrote my ticket off for me and all I have to do is send it in to the Court of San Bernardino now.

Then for work I went over to my Redlands major whole house remodel project and painted ceilings.

Once I got home I made a few music videos, had a shower, cooked a crock pot full of food for the cats and now I'm sitting here at 10:00pm finally getting to writing in my Dailies here.

Today is Pat Benatar day for my singing videos. So down below for today are some of her songs that I sang last weekend.

I didn't get her voice down as well as I think I can,.. but it don't sound too bad to me with what I was able to do.

Today for work I worked on my Redlands whole house remodel project just touch up painting walls and ceilings.

Then I headed for home early so that I could go over to the Police station and get my fix it ticket written off. Didn't find the one in San Bernardino,.. and it looks like they moved the one in Riverside that I checked on,.. not sure where... Then over at the Redlands Police station they told me that they don't write off fix it tickets unless they happened in Redlands.

So I'm just gonna have to take the morning off work tomorrow and see if I can find a Police station then. Because I've only got about 11 days left to get it fixed.

Now that I'm home,.. it's my dinner night,... so I'm gonna get cleaned up here in a little bit and head over to Pomodoro Cucina Italiana and have dinner.

And that will probably be about it for my evening tonight.

I decided to put some videos that I made last weekend in my Dailies today.

So today is Heart day.

Today I worked on my Redlands whole house remodel project just touch painting walls mostly... Then I had to go over to the paint store and get some materials for this job that we have completely run out of.

Looked like Caveman and Carpoolers wasn't on last night. Some Peanuts cartoon was on instead. And that was the first time I ever noticed the kid named Linuse carrying 2 blankets... An orange one and a light blue one... Hmmm...

I was so busy with things last night that I ended up staying up past Dancing with the Stars.

I had the sound muted on my computer TV and saw parts of the show... I really liked that golden yellow colored suit with the pok-a-dot tie that Helio (the race car driver) was wearing last night.

And for what I learned today,... I did learn something today,.. I got some mail about my fix-it ticket that I got a while back in my old work van and found out that all I need to do is go down to a police station and show them the proof of my corrections and I can send it to the court instead of having to go to court.

If anybody goes to play any of the videos down below and has a problem getting them to play without stopping. The large video might play best,... it's on my old web site server. My new web site servers computer seems to be so busy with other things right now that I can't even play the smallest of my videos on my computer without it stopping to have to buffer.

But the Large video plays without stopping on my computer.

I'm transferring again to another web server to try them out,.. but I haven't got all my files uploaded to them yet.


"Had to remove these videos. New server doesn't allow any room for videos."

Videos - me singing some of Heart's songs - "Crazy On You", "Magic Man (Magic Girl)", "Heartless".

Tuesday, November 27, 2007

Today I put one new video in my Practice Videos... Jefferson Starship - JANE 1.

I'm not totally happy with the way I sang it and think my voice could have a better tone,.. but just a week ago or so it was like I couldn't sing the song at all.

So,.. I definitely improved.

High notes are the ones I'm not doing as well as I use to back when I was 23 years old and before that.

Today for work I got my Redlands upstairs remodel project all completed... But they did add a little project that I'm going to have to go back for. They added rebuilding their front deck that leads to the entrance door.

Then I went over to my major whole house remodel project out in Redlands, California and checked on a friend that's working there for me.

And then I had to go and turn in a time card over at a Construction company that I've been working for on my Upstairs remodel project. And then I had to go over to the paint store and get some materials for my Riverside garage painting project.

And now I'm home and about ready to go in and have a shower.

I watched Dancing with the Stars and a little bit of Samantha Who last night. I really liked that yellow dress that Marie Osmond wore last night in her first dance. Thought it was a cool looking dress.

Maybe I'll stay up late enough to see Caveman and Carpoolers tonight...

I don't know... And if I learned anything new today,.. I don't remember what it is at this time.

Monday, November 26, 2007

Today I'm putting a couple videos in my Practice Videos on my Video Archives page. The first one,.. The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary... They use to play that song like every night at the Red Onion bar and restaurant back when I was 23 years old.

The first time I ever heard the song, all my friends that I was there with jumped up all excited and ran down to the dance floor and I followed them. And that song became a song that we all jumped up to dance for every time it played there.

I didn't quite sing it completely to my liking,.. but I think I may be able to get better at it.

The second songs that I'm putting in my Practice Videos today are,.. Journey - Feeling That Way and Anytime... I heard Cynthia Fox on KLOS radio play these 2 songs back to back one day and it gave me the idea to give singing them a try... Those are 2 of my very favorite Journey songs.

I wasn't planning on singing "Anytime" too in that video and wasn't really ready for it but I decided to go ahead and sing it too since it was already playing on the karaoke player.

Today for work I worked on my Redlands upstairs remodel project getting the interior entry finish painted... I found out today that this house is a Heritage house that was built in the Year 1892.

And now that I'm home I finished doing my daily paper work, paid some bills Online and I'm thinking that I might watch Dancing with the Stars tonight.

I had the thought last night sometime that,.. well,.. it was kind a like Doogie Howser was asking this,.. "what did you learn today?"...

And I think I'll say here,... Oh,.. I don't know,... seems like a lot of the time the things that I've learned aren't worth mentioning.

Like for instance,.. I learned today that the paint chips that I vacuumed up on my Riverside garage painting job vacuumed up quite clean and appear to be reusable...

And I learned what Priva on KLOS radio thinks about Marie Osmond and Dancing with the Stars this morning.... Which I don't care to repeat here....

And,.. as I'm looking over at these 2 box's sitting on my desk that came in today's mail,... I'm thinking that soon I'm going to learn what's in em.

And I guess I can say what they are now that their open... One of them had the Sweet Georgia Brown pack of over 1000 karaoke songs on CDs. And the other box contained a Christmas gift for my Dad,... a DVD of Red Skelton. It says 7 and a half hours of Red Skelton shows.

I remember a long time ago my Dad telling me that Red Skelton was the funniest comedian of all time.

I'm not sure that I've ever seen anything that Red Skelton has done myself... He don't look familiar to me from the pictures of him on this box.

Sunday, November 25, 2007

Today I woke up singing songs and it sounded like I had a voice for singing,.. so a lot of today I spent making singing videos along with checking them out. . . Seeing how I'm sounding and if I got any good ones in there.

And I made time to go out and weed eat and mow the lawn. Made dinner for the cats and have been uploading more of my site files here to the new web server that I signed up for yesterday.

I'm just gonna upload all the files this time before I change my nameservers over to them... So when I do finally change the nameservers and my site starts working through the new server I'll already have all my files in there and ready to go.

And that's about it for my Sunday. I'm feeling a little burned out like and about ready for bed, so I think that's where I'm going to be heading here in a little while.

Saturday, November 24, 2007

Let's see here,... I'm not really remembering what it was I was doing all this morning...

I know I spent an hour or two checking out this upgrade of web video software that I just got.

And I went ahead and signed up for a new web server to try out. So I've been uploading my site files ever since I figured out which folder to put them into. I think it took me over an hour just to figure that out. They didn't have the information placed in a convenient place,.. had to go searching through their support files.

And I found it where it said,.. "this is one of hour most asked questions"...

And I did one load of laundry today, and also started getting the clutter out of my living room.

I've got a small house with not a lot of room to put things.

And I just made a few music videos.

Oh,. and I've got another load of laundry too that's in the dryer and ready to be folded.

And I think I'll probably fold my laundry and upload video files up until I'm ready to go to bed.

This Holiday weekend sure is going fast...

Friday, November 23, 2007

Today what I spent a lot of my morning doing was fixing my Biography pages. Getting their coding all corrected. I haven't written anything new in there for a while and nothing new today either, but now the pages are all formatted in a new style where their all the same size, so until I find a new style I like better, that may be the way I'm gonna keep those pages.

I put one video that I made yesterday in my Practice Videos on my Video Archives page today. Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane.

And I've got a crock pot of food in the house that's now cooking for the cats. And in a little while I'm gonna have a shower and get ready to go out to dinner over at Pomodoro Cucina Italiana.

I caught part of the Ellen show yesterday. Saw Dana Carvey there yesterday. He may be able to do Alice Cooper too from what I saw of his impressions yesterday.

I never really tried to do talking voices much throughout my life. Just mostly singing voices.

Thursday, November 22, 2007

Well it's Thanksgiving morning for me here right now.

Today seems like a day when a lot of people who know me may not want to have anything to do with me due to something that happened (to the whole world if I'm not mistaken) around Thanksgiving time one year.

There's an Eagles voice that I haven't been able to sing like these days. Like I just haven't been able to sing like him at all for some reason.

And a few days ago my mind goes,... "You ruined my Thanksgiving" as if it was him talking.

And I can see him really having that thought about me for one year anyway. I don't know if it's affected other years too.

But I didn't mean to ruin anybodies Thanksgiving. I didn't know what was going to happen back then. I just did my thing and learned about it as it happened like everybody else may of did.

I've always liked eating and even like Turkey too. My favorite thing about Turkey was making sandwiches with the left over Turkey after Thanksgiving.

Well I don't have anything different planned for this day. I don't think my restaurant is open today though.

So what I'm thinking I'm going to do is,.. cook a nice dinner for the cats and dogs and then go over to Pomodoro Cucina Italiana tomorrow night and have my dinner then.

I've found that I can stay at the same weight these days if I eat only one meal per week. And I can have a snack every day too. Lately I've been going with like a bag of chips during the day and a little half sandwich for like a dinner snack.

Today for work I worked on my Riverside garage painting project again. I put the clear coating over the paint chips finish that I put on the floor yesterday.

And then I had to go to the bank and make an in bank deposit. And then I went over to Stater Brothers grocery store and did a little grocery shopping.

Then when I got home I watched the Ellen show on TV. I like Ellen. She's always come across in a likeable way to me.

And that's about it for my day. I just made the cats a nice dinner with some fried eggs and now I'm checking out the News on TV and I have no plans tonight other than the usual stuff.

Tuesday, November 20, 2007

Today for work I worked on my Riverside garage painting project and applied the second coat of epoxy to their garage floor along with paint chips over that. Almost ran out of paint, but had just enough to finish.

I watched Dancing with the Stars last night. That was a good one last night. And I liked how they showed the middle judge,.. think his name is Len maybe. I like how they showed him giving tips to all the contestants. Like I got to see him and get to know him in a more positive light there.

Not that he has come across in a bad way as just a judge, just that he showed a more fun side of himself last night.

Seems like they sure paired the dancers and the Stars off well. (Which dancer was going to dance with which Star).

And then I saw a little bit of the show Samantha Who before I went to bed.

Well,.. I don't have anything planned for tonight. Maybe I'll catch that Caveman show and Carpoolers later and then I'll be ready for bed.

One thing I noticed on Dancing with the Stars is how important good posture can be.

In my one year of what I call real life back when I was 23 years old I had very good posture that came to me one day and made me walk so different that I felt uncomfortable at first about it thinking of how people are going to notice. But the thought quickly went away and I walked pretty tall that whole year.

Now days when I look in the mirror at my posture I think I look Cromagnoman like now. Like I've got posture similar to a Cromagnoman now.

I can pick myself up and stand taller with better posture by doing it on my own. (Make a mental note of it and have to keep reminding myself to do it). But it doesn't feel natural and I don't think it looks so natural either.

So I usually just go with the Cromagnoman look because it's what comes natural to me now days.

Monday, November 19, 2007

Today for work I went over to my Riverside garage painting job and put a first coat of epoxy on their garage floor.

Then on my way home I went over to the DMV and got me a new drivers license. It wasn't too bad over there. Seemed like it was about an hours wait. They were taking care of people over there quite fast.

Well,.. I think I'm gonna switch web site servers already here. Today I noticed again that this new web site server isn't able to play even my smallest videos completely through without them having to stop and buffer.

It's been a pretty big job moving my web site around. Quite time consuming. But I have learned some things through the experience.

My old web site server was a good one. One that I would just switch back to if they offered more disc space. And if I don't find another server that will work for my web site I may have to switch back to them anyway.

Which would mean that I would have to purchase a new web site every time I fill up my site with 6 gigabytes of files and then direct my main site to the new site for any pages that have to be on the new site.

I like this new web host I'm with now too,.. but they may be better for web sites that don't have videos.

Along with today's video down below I've also put a couple videos that I'm not as happy with in my Practice Videos that's on my Video Archives page. They're up on top,.. Joe Jackson - Is She Really Going Out With Him 1 and the Eagles - Peaceful Easy Feeling 1.

Well tomorrow I don't have to be at work til 8:00am,.. so I think I can stay up and watch that Dancing with the Stars tonight.

Sunday, November 18, 2007

This morning I've decided instead of putting this new video that I made yesterday in My Practice Videos, I'm gonna put it in My Dailies for today.

Man,.. as I'm sitting here getting started on moving some of my practice videos into my Video Archives page,... I didn't realize how time consuming it was going to be. Seems like I could be sitting here all day moving these videos.

I think I'll just do it a little bit at a time instead of spending my whole day on it today.

Well, I better go get dressed and get my laundry started.

Now it's getting late and I'm about ready for bed. Let's see here,.. today I did a little grocery shopping over at the Natural food store. Went to see if they have anything new for Thanksgiving this year and didn't find nothin.

And I've finished my laundry, cooked dinner for the cats, had me a little Singles Red Baron frozen style pizza, made a few music videos and worked on transferring more of my Large videos back to my old web site server.

Saturday, November 17, 2007

Well it's 7:30pm here and I've gotta figure out what it was I did today so that I can write it down here.

First of all I went down to Target this morning and got me a mustache and beard trimmer to try out. It hasn't really got charged up completely yet for me to give it a good test, but it seems to work pretty OK from what I tried of it so far.

Then I went over to BestBuy and got me a CD and DVD book case. I've had most all my music CD's out in my garage ever since I lived here,... and with the way one of my drunk friends used and handled my CD's,.. I really don't like him having access to them anymore.

The cases are all broken and the CD's have food and dried up drink and scratches all over them.

I've thought that I might as well just give him the CD if I plan on letting him use one.

Then I made a few music videos. Think I'll put one of them in my Practice videos tomorrow.

And then I did one load of laundry and fed the cats.

Oh,.. and I also had to put that CD cabinet together when I got it home and I rearranged things a little in the back of my new work van too.

I purchased over 1000 karaoke songs for my birthday. But lately when I go to sing a new song I just haven't really been getting into it much.

Friday, November 16, 2007

Today is my Birthday. I'm 45 years old today...

I ended up working a little late today on the job and since I didn't wanna have to do cat cooking on my dinner night last night,.. I've gotta do it tonight. (Cook up a big pot of food for the cats).

Today for work I worked on my Riverside garage painting project getting the floor all prepared for a custom floor epoxy finish.

And now that I'm home,... I think I'll have a shower, finish my cat cooking and then go to bed.

Lately I've let a bit of a beard and mustache grow on my face... I've never grown a beard before... I use to have a mustache back when I was 18 years old and a few years after that too... I grew that back then just for trying to look older purposes.

But for me growing a beard has always been like it still looks like I can't quite grow one. Like I still have areas where it's not growing in yet. Like I'm not even a Man yet.

I remember back when I was around 23 years old and working for a Painting contractor... I must of said that I was interested in being a Foreman to someone and one day at the shop in the morning the owner of the companies brother says:,. "Foreman,... sh_t,... you can't even grow a beard yet".

Yep... but now days it's looking like I may finally be becoming a Man.

I haven't liked the thought of growing facial hair for a lot of years though because I thought it would attract attention to my face.

It's that "I'm kind of like Gene Wilder in the World's Greatest Lover" thang about me.

I remember back in my grade school years there was a kid in my grade that may of had sort of a problem. Like he was becoming a Man at a young age. He was a kid that grew a mustache and looked like he could grow a beard too when he was in 4th grade.

He also had very hairy legs and hair all over his ass and the reason I know that is for some reason this kid liked to pull his pants and underwear all the way down to the ground every time he took a leak at the urinal.

It was cool hearing Dwight Yoakam on the KLOS Mark and Brian radio show this morning. Seems like he's always a fun one to have on the Mark and Brian show.

Thursday, November 15, 2007

Well,.. I just got back from having dinner over at Pomodoro Cucina Italiana. And dinner was great again. I had Ravioli Di Zucca, Spinaci, Pane Al' aglio and a glass of milk while listening to their live Jazz music.

For work today I worked on my whole house remodel project and mostly worked on preparing doors and trim for painting.

And that's about it for my day today. I'm gonna go to bed here pretty soon and then I'm gonna have to get up and go back to work again...

Wednesday, November 14, 2007

Today for work I went over to my whole house remodel project to check on it. I have a couple friends over there working for me and before I brought them in again the owners of the house told me they would really rather have me alone over there working, but said it was Ok to bring my friends in again because they really would like to get things finished over there. (I'm on 2 other jobs now too,.. so I'm only able to give them a day or 2 per week.

Anyway,... it was nice to see today that my friends and the owners of the house were all getting along in a friendly way and everybody looked happy there.

Then I went over to my upstairs remodel project and finished painting the exterior trim that still needed to be done and got started getting their interior entry prepared for painting.

I didn't catch any of the Caveman show and Carpoolers last night. Decided to go to bed instead. Which is about all I'm gonna do tonight too after I get my chores done.

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

Well,.. although I don't feel sick anymore,.. it's like I still am a little bit sick though... I've felt all run down and weak all day today. And even more so now that I'm home.

I saw part of Dancing with the Stars last night. I was thinking last night that if their band there is really doing all the singing of all the songs that they're playing for the dance numbers,... "that they are quite good".

Last night when they did Stevie Wonder's My Cherie Amour it sounded a lot like Stevie Wonder was singing it.

I saw Doogie Howser (Neil Patrick Harris) on Wheel Of Fortune last night and him and his partner did really good. They even won the ending Jack Pot round with only a few letters showing in the puzzle.

Well,.. I don't plan on doing much tonight,... think I'll take it easy and maybe go to bed early.

I have thought that some of my new practice videos are just as good if not better than some of the videos that I have in my Video Archives though, and that I'm gonna keep some of them and put them in my Video Archives page. I don't plan on getting around to that tonight though.

Today was another one of those days when I woke up feeling sick, got all dressed for work, came into my office started to turn on my computer, then went back in and got undressed and went back to bed.

Now it's about 6:00pm here and I'm starting to feel a little better... It was a bad headache and kind of a cold-flue like thing,... all conjested, my headached made my eyes feel hard to keep open and I felt like I may throw up at times.

I just put a few new videos in My Practice Videos that's on the top of my Video Archives page. They're the videos that I made yesterday, dated with yesterday's date.

And I think I'm gonna just go back to bed here in a little bit.

Sunday, November 11, 2007

Well,.. let's see here,.. I've gotta figure out what all I've been doing today.

I worked on my web site here for a bit. Put some new practice videos in My Practice Videos that's on my Video Archives page and gave the page a new background.

I folded my laundry and took my Great Uncle over to the Big Lot's store because he wanted to get us a new carpeting steam cleaner.

I cooked up a big crock pot of food for the cats and I made a few more music videos too.

Now it's after 6:00pm here and I've still got plenty of things that I could and should do here.

As I'm thinking out loud here,... I should probably do my online banking and pay some bills first of all and then I guess I can upload some more of my Large videos back to my old web site server.

Oh,.. and I've got Invoices to make up too.

And I think I'll be going to bed after that...

Saturday, November 10, 2007

It's been a bit of a busy Saturday for me here again. Seems like every weekend has been busy lately.

One thing cool though,.. I installed new tail lights and back up lights to my old work van today,.. and I thought it was going to take me all weekend to complete it, but I was able to get it all finished by noon today.

I made a few videos today also,.. and some of them I'll put in my practice videos tomorrow.

Also I've been to the bank and made a deposit and did a little grocery shopping and did one load of laundry that's still in the dryer ready to be folded.

I think I'm gonna go to bed and fold them tomorrow.

Friday, November 9, 2007

Today for work I went over to my Riverside garage painting project and finished painting all the walls then painted all the doors and jambs too.

Today I decided to put a new place in my web site. It's called My Practice Videos and it's link is on the top of my Video Archives page.

I put it there because sometimes I make some videos that seem pretty good but don't seem quite good enough to put in here permanently.

To go directly to the video page now Click here ...

Well it's another Friday night. . . . I think I'm just gonna do the usual tonight.

Which will be somethin like,. . feed the cats, shower, computer stuff, go to bed.

Videos - me singing a Captain and Tenille song called "Love Will Keep Us Together".

Thursday, November 8, 2007

Man,.. it's getting late on me fast tonight. Like there just isn't enough time in the day to do all the things that I'm doing.

Today for work I went and installed hinges to cabinet doors on one little fix it type job. And then I went over to my major whole house remodel project and sanded, puttied and caulked interior trim.

Then I came home, made a few videos, showered, fed the cats and then went out to dinner over at Pomodoro Cucina Italiana.

Wednesday, November 7, 2007

Today for work I went over to my upstairs remodel project and painted exterior trim. Then on my way home I had to stop by another job where I was supposed to install some new hinges on some of their cabinet doors where they had broken hinges,.. but I left their new hinges sitting on my desk at home. So I'm gonna have to do that one tomorrow morning now.

I was too busy with other things last night and didn't catch any of the Caveman show and Carpoolers.

Well,.. my chores are all done now for today,.. and I think I might just go to bed early tonight.

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

For work today I painted walls on my Riverside garage painting job.

I didn't get to see Dancing with the Stars last night,.. but I did notice in AOL that "what looked like could of been the youngest girl in the competition" actually got eliminated.

She seemed like one of the best too. She must of got some bad scores when I wasn't looking or something.

And I guess that's about it for today...

Oh,.. I did pick up my old work van from the shop today. Got the brake lights working now. So now I've gotta make time to get over to the DMV and get a new drivers license. I lost mine somewhere.

It was the blinker and hazard switch up in the steering column that was causing my brake lights to not work.

They replaced the whole unit.

Monday, November 5, 2007

Today for work I had to get back started again on my major whole house remodel project that I've been doing most all the painting on. Though on this project I've been able to have some friends come out and help me too.

But not today,.. today it was me only, and I just puttied trim all day.

Now that I'm home I've had a shower and fed the cats and have been changing some more of my Large videos back over to my old web site server.

Today I realized that some of my videos are in Large form only,.. so it's like I need to get those back to where they are working again.

I don't know if I'll catch much of Dancing with the Stars tonight or not,.. because I should make sure I get to work on time tomorrow.

Sunday, November 4, 2007

Well let's see here,.. I've been busy all day long and now I've gotta think about just what it was that I was busy with...

Well,.. I went grocery shopping this morning. And I transferred a few Large videos back over to my old web server earlier. And I did a load of laundry.

I cooked a big pot of food up for the cats and cooked them dinner.

I mowed the lawn and also made a few test videos of my singing.

And now I've gotta make a few calls about work and my day will be about done...

Saturday, November 3, 2007

Today has been a pretty busy day. Once I got started working on estimates and Invoices it ended up taking up a lot of the day.

But it's nice that they're done.

Then I did some Online banking and paid some bills. And then I went to the post office to mail off some bills. Then to my Riverside job where I dropped off some estimates and an Invoice.

I've finished one load of laundry and still need to fold another. I just fixed dinner for the cats and also had me a little Red Baron Singles Deep Dish pizza,.. the kind you can get frozen from the grocery store that come 2 in a box.

Earlier today I worked a little on attempting to figure out how to set up my own web server again. I learned something new about web servers from my new server yesterday. Although I have my very own IP address from my new server,.. the computer server that I'm running on is shared with other peoples web sites,.. which takes up computer memory and CPU to run.

And that could be one reason why my Large videos won't play correctly from their server.

So what I learned was there is such a thing as a dedicated server also,.. where I would have my very own computer all to myself for my web site or web sites. But they are quite expensive from what I've seen,.. so setting up my own server here at my house is sounding better to me these days.

Also what I've been doing today is putting some of my Large videos back onto my old server. Because they play fine from over there...

In time I'm gonna put all the Large ones back over there... It's gonna take me some time and money to set up my own server. I'll end up getting a whole new computer for it if I'm able to run a server here.

Today I worked on my Riverside garage painting job and got all the walls textured.

And seems like that's about it for my day today.

Think I'm just gonna go to bed early tonight.

This morning at the paint store there was a funny guy in there. Him and the girl at the counter were talking about paint colors and his job and at a pause in the conversation he goes:

"Oh well,.. once we get married we don't get no sex anymore anyway".

Then he goes:

"Hey,... what a ya call a married guy that gets sex twice a week?"...

"Having an afair"...

It cracked me up this morning anyway.

Today I worked on my upstairs remodel project painting exterior trim.

And now it's after 6:00pm here and I'm on my way to dinner over at Pomodoro Cucina Italiana.

And that'll probably be about it for my evening...


"Had to remove these videos. New server doesn't allow any room for videos."
