Post-heart attack.
E-bike rider.
Not a people person but does not have the skill set to be a mountain hermit.
Easily bribed with good whiskey, hard bop jazz records, or just coffee if that is all you can offer.

Well, finished that one. I described it as a combination of the films "The Illusionist" and "The Silence of the Lambs."
I probably should not have gone looking for another series to get into with a 'To Be Read' pile as large as mine.

I have not been using my stereo much lately. When I have been home playing music, it has been part of my trying to rebuild my digital library after trusting the collection too much to iTunes Match.

I usually keep my thermostat in the low 60s and have my kitchen window open just a crack, but damn...
Cranked that thermostat to 70 and closed the window, but I still do not want to emerge from underneath my pile of blankets.
Going to have to climb out and start up the drip coffee maker though.

I am pretty sure it would be faster for me to walk from Massachusetts to the warehouse of Kings Road Merchandise and pull my order of @dropkickmurphys.com merchandise and carry it back home than for them to ship it.
Now to see how long it takes them to cancel my order...

After finishing "Fever House" by Keih Rosson, I am on to "Angel Killer" by Andrew Mayne, after a few false starts trying other novels, trying to settle on my next read.

I am glad I did not waste money on expedited shipping on my #dropkickmurphys order with King's Road Merch. They take so long to ship orders that it would have been a waste of money.
"Would you like two-day or three-day shipping on the order we will fulfill a month from now?"

I posted this one last year but now it is the first record I got signed in person. I have had a hundred CDs signed over the years (still have a lot of them) but this is the first vinyl record.

Here is a new way reminding me I am old.
Getting ready to go to bed, and I look down at the back of my hands, thinking, "Oh, great. The miscolored splotches are back on my hands."
A few moments later, you realize it is actually the stamp you get at the door of the club you were at that evening.

Torn between wanting to relearn how to skate and not having an aching back. Having a day of rest did not alleviate the pain so I guess I will go try to walk it off.

I have got any aching back so naturally I took the worst route to bike home on.

I didn't create this, but I sort of created a version of this 25 years ago. Either way, I think it's funny.

Dave Hole is someone whom I do not have a vinyl record of, and I really should do something about that.

Hurt my back hitting the ice while skating. Riding my hardtail e-bike with a gym bag over a shoulder really sucks right now.

While that last "Mission: Impossible" movie was a fun watch, I really want a more realistic movie where the hero needs a few minutes to recover every now and then.

I really do not get why I have to spend so much time being an intermediary between my pharmacy and my medical insurance. Yes, let the person with the least medical knowledge and clout get the prescription issues straightened out.
