Z Weekend Update

Friday night … I got medication for Momma then came home.  I fed the children but wasn’t really in the mood to eat.  I wound up with a soda and a little bit of Chex Snack Mix.  I spent the evening in front of the TV and tried to relax as much as possible.  Eventually going to bed early.

Saturday… I got going early headed out to Steak N Shake to see all of the regulars and get me some food.  Then I hit up the cat food store and you know who was working as the cashier.  I fucking hate seeing him and talking to him.  I would be immensely happy if I never saw him again.  Then I went home and realized that I wanted to go to the post office.  So I headed in that direction and then came home.  Unloaded all of the cat stuff and sat down and watched TV.  I eventually wound up napping the biggest part of the day away. 

I woke up with plenty of time to get dressed and go visit my friends.  We had a nice time and I spent more money than I thought I would.  Since he is no longer working I saw they compromised a lot and didn’t have the usual wine they get.  It is nothing for them to rack up $100 bill all by themselves.  Now since I paid last time you would think they would offer to pay this time, but that didn’t happen.  So I took care of my portion, which wasn’t a big deal it was just more than I expected. 

I came home started laundry, fed the children.  I played on the computer.  I am still dealing with an odd problem in Windows 8.1.  I go to expand Devices and Printers and it takes forever to load.  I’ve been all over the web.  There are registry hacks that don’t apply to me.  I’ve goofed with Bluetooth but still no difference.  I even took off all of the printers and drivers, loaded them fresh and still no dice.  This is rather frustrating because the rest of the machine works fine.  My fear is that I will fix this but break something else.  I’d just like to fix the one problem.  It sounds like this will be an on-going battle for a while.  We all know I won’t give up and let the machine defeat me.  The only other option is to wipe it all out and start over fresh.  Since I blew away my backup that isn’t a viable option now.  I would also like to stay away from that because it is time consuming. 

Sunday… Slept in but headed out to Cracker Barrel.  I stood on my feet for 1/2 hour to get a seat.  Man that hurt.  The food was good but also a bit pricy.  Now I remember why I stick with Steak N Shake.  Then hit up the grocery store.  Came home and put away the little bit of groceries that I got.  Settled up the money score by charting all of the money I had just spent.  Finishing laundry is next on the list and so I started down that path. 

Lunch came a little late for the children but they got it.  I had a soda and passed out on the couch for a couple hours.  Then started cleaning the house, working with the trash and finishing up laundry.  The Mayor (Marvin) finally left my bed when I broke out the vacuum cleaner.  I wanted to wash the bedding but it’s getting late so I am just removing the Electric Blanket, I think it is safe to say were done with that for now.   

It will be frozen pizza for supper for me, haven’t done that in a while.  Then wrapping things up around here by getting ready for Monday.  Then on to watch Nurse Jackie and Secrets & Lies.  Hopefully by then I will be tired.

 

In the dating arena.  I fired up Grindr on Saturday morning and I had a message waiting from a cute 21 year old Twink who said ‘Hello Daddy’  Wow that was refreshing to see.  I said Hi back and later that afternoon I learned he wanted pictures.  End of conversation.  We just met, what sane person sends a nude photo to a complete stranger?  I wanted to send him a picture of Dick Cheney but just decided not to continue the conversation.  This morning I woke up and found another younger guy who said hi but when I looked at his profile I saw he was HIV +.  Sorry not going down that rabbit hole.  I am sure he is a great person but I don’t need that element in my life.  I did what I said I wasn’t going to do and parted with more money.  I saw a hottie on How About We and wanted to ask him out.  So I bought a one month subscription which I promptly turned off the auto renew feature and asked him out.  I am still waiting on a response.  This whole little quest of finding someone is getting to be a little more than daunting and depressing.  I really wish it would fall into place already.  I can see me taking a break from it again but it won’t be until the subscription on Compatible Partners runs out.  I went to message someone from there and they hit you with a warning message as I read it I realized that I have unknowingly raised a lot of red flags.  One of the big things is someone who claims to be recently widowed.  Yeah well in my case it’s true.  I’m not out for anyone’s money and I certainly don’t want anyone to take mine.  There were other things but that is the biggest one that stuck out. 

There you have it, my weekend summary.  Now back to regular programming and chores for me.  I hope that you all had a great weekend.  Thanks for stopping by and I will talk with you all again soon.
