I just don't want to turn into an old geezer, wearing a parka, with a beard down to my knees, petting a bony cat, with the furnace set at 88F. But the signs are all there!!

Started my diet yesterday. It's about the 10,788th diet I've been on. So, I ate a very low calorie lunch-only 340 calories. And this time, it seemed that I didn't have the food cravings I usually have when on a diet. When it came to suppertime, I really wasn't hungry?????
Today, after breakfast I was loading dishes into the dishwasher, and I happened to notice that there was an even number of dishes. That shouldn't be.
SOB, I ate lunch twice yesterday.

I was watching this TV show about the isolated indigenous peoples of the Amazon. These people hold onto their cherished way of life. There was an extremely elderly, toothless woman, who was telling about her ancient ancestors, and how things have never changed. But in the background was a satellite TV dish, a flat screen, a fridge, & a microwave
Humans :unsure:

There was a thread about the price of eggs and sick chickens. Some said they would not eat chicken, unless it was free range, etc. etc. I began to wonder if chickens wanted certain traits from their human eaters. Maybe some chickens only wanted to be eaten by "free range humans", or humans without any antibiotics in them, or only "happy" humans. What chicken would want to be eaten by a human, who wasn't raised to be a socially responsible human, and not in a coop.???

For real???
 
A thread in Senior Forum reminded me of my high school Senior Prom. I went to a small Catholic school. My buddy, Norman and I got a motel room and had two six packs of beer on ice in the tub-talk about suave and sophisticated. We hadn't told our dates about this. When I picked up my date, after her parents took 3,000 pictures. I tried to tell her but she interrupted me, she said she had great news
She just got a letter that she was accepted into a convent to become a nun.
So it was just a very sad Norman and I polishing off two six packs.
Somehow, that's my life in a nutshell.

I saw Harold, the turkey, walking around his tree this morning. I'd forgotten about him. The poor thing has been sitting up in his tree, even when it's -5 below O F., got snowed on, and in winds of 50-60 miles an hour.
Compared to Harold, we lead very privileged lives.
No way would we survive sitting up in a tree.

Went food shopping yesterday. Tuesdays are National Geezer Days at the grocery store. There was a line waiting for the electric carts. There was one young customer- she was only in her late 40s.
 
Yesterday, it was extremely windy, and the cable TV, land line phone, and internet went out from 1PM-10PM. Talk about going back to the Stone Ages, all I could do was read. Yuck. Then I remembered I have the complete DVD set of "Perry Mason". I'm a huge fan. I've seen each episode dozens of times. Unlike the reruns on TV, which show only a square block in the middle of a flat screen TV, the DVD set uses all on my 4 foot TV. So, sitting up close I was able to see things I hadn't noticed before. And I could go back over the scenes. One was a scene where there was a murdered guy on the floor, As the camera moved off of the dead body, the "dead guy" blinked.
Another episode was about a blackmailer. He was talking to Mason inside a home, then on his way outside the home. In the outside scene, the blackmailer has a swollen lip, and deep cut on lower his lip. Later, he didn't.
I'm so amazed at how addicted we are to our electronic toys.
 
It was ONE of those nights. I went to bed @11. Then I woke up a 1:55, I had to go. Woke up @ 3:00. Woke up @ 4, Woke up @ 5. The finally I got up at 8, and the first thing I did was go. Where in the hell did all that water come from?
Gone are the days I could guzzle beer all night long, capsize and then wake up 8 hours later. There's a quote that "the young are too young to know they're young".
 
It's Haircut Day with Eddy. He's in this strip mall with a dollar store on each end. What's weird about this place is that it's always full of seagulls. They are walking around the parking lot, quacking -(?), or whatever noises seagulls make. It's at least 100 miles to the nearest ocean, but here they are, in Eddy's parking lot. And it's winter!!!!

a seagull is standing on the sidewalk in front of a store ..

 
Started my diet, today. This time I'll keep it. It's already been 20 minutes!
Nope, no sea gulls in the parking lot, but there was a huge swam of geese flying around, and they seem to be going North????
I'm writing to the Equal Rights people. I went to buy my "Men's Daily Vitamins" -200 tab bottle. There was a whole shelf of Women's vitamins- great big bottles of them. Next to the laxatives were about 4 tiny bottles of Men's vitamins.
They're going to hear about this.
 
I am so flakey, today. This is way beyond my normally high level of flakiness. At breakfast, I only put coffee and no water in the coffee maker. Instead of two toasts, I made 4. I wanted to wash up, so I started for the bathroom, so I'm in my bedroom, and I'm trying to remember what I wanted in the bedroom. Went back to the kitchen, where I remember about washing up. But I never made it to the bathroom, I watched TV. I started out for the bathroom @8:30, it's now 11:00, and I still haven't made it there. Of course, I stopped to write this instead of going to the bathroom.
 
I have to admit that my mind amazes me at times. I woke up wondering which old cereal ad from the 1960s I liked better. Was it "Mikey likes it' with the three kids, or "Where's my Maypo?" Of all the things I could wake up wondering about, 60 year old TV ads is not high on my waking mind's list. And what's even worse, I can't make up my mind which I do like better.
I looked this up. The "Mikey" kid was John Gilchrist and the two other kids were his real brothers. he's 57 now.

It’s exactly those random thoughts that keep me addicted to my iPhone and the internet.

$%#@&*(%@#$%. We're supposed to have 7 inches of snow, with freezing rain, turning to ice. It was to be a really bad storm. I had a doctor's appt. today, so on Tuesday, I switched it till later this month. I went out and bought enough groceries to last through till 2035. I had my snow blower positioned and filled with gas for the snow. I had my snow shovel on my deck ready. I drove around to make sure my car battery was fully charged and filled up the tank.

$%#@&*(%@#$%. I have less than a 1/2 inch of snow, and it's supposed to rain later.
$%#@&*(%@#$%.

I was so irritated yesterday. It was the first time in my life that I actually got all prepared for a snowstorm. And NO snow!!!!!
Fox weather made it sound like the snowstorm of the century, and my phone kept pinging with weather warnings.
Usually, I don't have any idea there's a big snowstorm coming. I wake up and my snowblower and snow shovel are in the shed 50 feet away, behind a huge snow drift that I have to plod through. My car's nearly out of gas, and all I have to eat is a bit of peanut butter at the bottom of the jar, and three crumbled Saltines.
But, at least, there's snow!!!!!!!!!!!!
