For once, in a long, long while, I can say today was a good day. I think running this morning helped out a bit.
I put a pair of Docs on eBay last night. A guy emailed me this afternoon and told me he’d buy them now for $60. I told him that would be fine with me. I haven’t heard back from him yet. That made me happy – had I not put them on eBay, I probably would have given them to the Salvation Army… or returned them to the Dallas cheerleaders.
I put a little air in the trusty Shadow’s tires this morning – that made it faster and handle better.
I was swamped at work so that made the day fly by. I got a good haircut this afternoon. I don’t really worry much about my hair [style], but a good clipping can make a dude’s day.
I wrote the big check to pay off my motorcycle today – that was a huge relief.
I made some damn good stuffed bell peppers tonight – a pound and a half of once-known cow, diced carrots, a million diced cloves of garlic, chopped cherry tomatoes, an egg, a slice of bread (diced), onion, chili powder, yadah yadah. I mushed it all up, packed the meat mixture into two halved yellow bell peppers, stuck it in the oven, badah boom, badah bing, done. Good good good.
I tried to make chocolate covered Macadamia nuts. I don’t know what the hell I was doing there. Needless to say, I have a sheet pan sitting on my cutting board with a couple dozen, what look like, toddler droppings. I suck at making desserts. There’s chocolate all over the kitchen. I don’t really like eating dessert, so maybe that’s why I’m not very good at it. Now, if I could figure out the secret recipe to making good gummy bears…
Anyway – I’m just in a good mood today. I think I’ll go enjoy what’s left of it because who knows what the hell is going to happen tomorrow.
