Short takes - What I'm thinking about

If I ever get to the point where I actually get to be able to choose my own car instead of gettign a hand me down or the one that happens to be what we can get at the time I think I'd like a diesel. In a perfect world a small truck with a four passenger cab or station wagon that was able to tow smallish loads.

Contrary to the snow on the ground lawn season is close and I hate it. Not just the mowing but teh lawn itself. I'd rather it be food. It seems like such a waste to have this huge area devoted to grass. The backyard is more of a special case because of the dogs but I can't help but feel there is a better solution.

***

We need a bigger house. I'd really like it if we coould get one with enough land for a decent garden.

***

I have no idea how to work out a diet that lets the Mrs and I eat together. I do not thrive on the same things she does. I know already what I need to eat to lose weight and that particular diet is one that I don't know if she can currently handle or will ever be willing to do.

***

I need to read more.

***

As much as I love reading and learning about diet and nutrition I _hate_ meal planning. So of course lately it's what I need to do the most.

***

I still want to learn to draw.

***

I need a new guitar. I don't currently have one that is playable. The accoustics neck is bowed and the action is so high you could fly under it and the electric I don't even know what is wrong with.

***

I want a bicycle. I've been looking at electric assist bikes and they seem to be truly starting to fill the niche that mopeds once did. The two main problems being distance and cost. Distance is not ussualy a biggy but when I can find a moped for 1/4 the cost of the ones I like cost is a problem.

***

I wonder why more electric assist bikes don't have regenerative brakes.

***

A bike that could recharge on the 12v as well as house current would be an excellent tag along. One that would easily fold or otherwise fit in teh back of the car or truck would be even better. An electrick assist version of one of bike friday's bikes would be about perfect.

***

I need tgo borrow a bike and see if my balanace can even handle it these days before I go out and spend the bells on it.

***

I'm about done with one of my friends. I don't bother to make new ones anymore for excatly for some of the reasons that are going on now. I wish I could live in a cave and never have to work again. With cable, mail delivery, servants, internet access and take out.

***

My current retirement planning is gonna leave me screwed.

***

I'm taking some vaction days in the near future. I wish I had the bells to actually go do something but sitting at home wil be ok.

***

I need a blow job.

***

I like the puppy when he's asleep curled up next to me. When he's causing trouble, not so much. He is slowly getting better.

***

Food != happiness. I know this but can't seem to get it into practice.

***

I'm back on my meds like I should be so have of course gained weight.

***

Things I need to get away from: Fried, battered, creamy.

***

Chips and Coke are the enemy

***

I need to go get a prescrition on the way to work or the way home. I keep forgetting about it.

***

I always liked first kisses. No baggage.

***

I'm going to develop my script into a novel instead I think. I should have just as much luck with that and I don't have to depend on so many other people for it. No high hopes for publication but I could always do that myself if it ended up being any good.

***

I could not write a coherent page with a gun to my head and my balls in a vice. I need to work on that.

***

I haven't been doing well on my goal of writing something here daily but I have been doing better of at least putting something in here on a regular basis.

***

I forgot to write DirtyJ. I need to do that.
