2nd Time not as good

Happy Weekend, hope all is well. 

Friday I made it to my friends house, the gathering was super small me and their neighbor (who’s a little crazy).  Oddly enough both the neighbor and I are both widowers.  We had burgers, potato salad, baked beans, and corn on the cob.  A few hours later Ice Cream with Chocolate and Carmel sauces.  It was a decent meal.  The burger tasted strange. 

More than anything I enjoyed the company and being able to chat.  Originally when I walked in the door they were watching TV and she was interested in some murder mystery series.  I didn’t want to stick around for that and tried to leave but then conversation started as their neighbor left.  I soon found out that I wasn’t the only one who felt he is a little strange. 

They were planning on going out to dinner on Saturday and made the mistake of mentioning it to their neighbor, he invited himself along, told them where they were going to go and said he was paying the bill.  I asked them what time dinner was so that I wouldn’t miss it.  They both said we wish it was you instead of him we were going with. 

I got home just before dark and all of the fireworks started.  This year the cats were not happy with the noise.  Previous years it hasn’t bothered them but I suppose things change with time and age.  It was super noisy and someone put on a nice commercial type show at the end of the street, which you could see from the living room window.  I glanced out for a second and then went back to getting ready for bed. 

Saturday I made it to the buffet and despite them having dinner out they charged me the lunch price again.  I was so pleased about that because this time it was crap for food.  I ate mostly fried chicken, had one small piece of fish.  Lots of mashed potatoes that oddly enough tasted like they came from KFC, they were so good.  I saw something in the desert case and asked about it.  It was Hot Fudge Peanut Butter Pie.  I ordered a piece, wow that was the best part of the whole meal.  I left full not quite as satisfied as I was the last time.  They had pork but it was grilled I was counting on BBQ. 

I missed one of the turns in getting there so I had to go down a small one lane road and a car was coming from the opposite direction.  It was a tense moment but between the two of us we made sure that we got by each other tight as it was.  That little mistake ruined my clean car.  I looked like I went mudding or hit a puddle but it was all dust. 

Made it back home, late for the cats supper but they got fed and had some treats. 

Today (Sunday) I woke up early and headed out as per usual.  Paid for two older ladies breakfast as a good deed.  I haven’t bought anyone else’s meal in a long time.  That felt so good and when I made the announcement to them it went over rather well. 

Drove to the car wash and rather than spend another $25 for a wash I opted to join the club so I paid $40 and now I can wash my car during the month as many times as I want.  It’s recurring so the 6th of every month they will debit my card.  I can cancel anytime there is no long term contract.  There was a nice guy working the wash and he had a good looking ass.  He smiled at me but never caught me peeking.  Not sure if that was his normal smile or if he wanted to get it on.  I almost drove back through but opted to just keep on going.  My information pops up on a screen so if he’s interested he can always call me, but I’m not holding my breath. 

Made it to Target for more cat treats and a few other items.  Then on to the grocery store.  I really wanted to get started surfing the net but by the time I got home I saw the cats made a couple messes for me and I just wanted to relax and enjoy the morning like I normally do.  We (the cats and I) all took a nap in my recliner.  They were in between my legs and while it sounds uncomfortable it wasn’t bad. 

I got up after nap time, fed them lunch, cleaned up their messes, set out my pills and munched on a snack.  Finally made my way to the basement.  I had planned on joining a website for some new content with one of my favorite porn stars (Sam Bridle) that just dropped.  However, I talked myself out of it for the second time.  It’s not a question of money but rather something I want and really don’t need. 

Speaking of needs it’s about time to get up and swap loads of laundry, head out for supper and some cat food.  Thinking maybe of taking in a movie later kind of depends on how I feel. 

Tomorrow is car maintenance and lunch with my friend, that won’t be a super cheap day.  Other than that I don’t have any real plans for tomorrow or Tuesday.  Just relax and take it easy, probably go back to the car wash just for fun. 

I hope that your staying cool.  Hang in there the weekend will come around again soon!  Shame we have to wait until September for the next holiday in the US, that’s when I will be on vacation again.  Something to look forward to.  Take care!
