I say a little prayer for you 🙏

Singing along with a little Aretha Franklin on this cold and dark early autumn morning as the work week is getting underway. I’ve always liked the Dione Warwick version but Open Tunes suggested this version and it’s pretty good groove to start a Monday with. Girly music but who cares.

It seemed like the percolator pot took much too long on the stove to make coffee ☕ this morning, but eventually it was done. I know I should get one of those woke drip coffee pots you have throw away every year but I am quite fine boiling coffee on my stove top like I have done for the past twenty years in an aluminum camp perculator. Maybe it’s all the aluminum I’ve exposed to my brain that causes the rot and makes me hate polyvinyl chloride everything, and not reading more of Edward Abbey but so much of that technology is obnoxious.

Showering 🚿 and probably riding in fairly early, 🚲 depending how fast I get off my ass and in the shower and make breakfast up. 🍳 There is always work to do in the office and people waiting to stalk me down in my office, and IOI codes to create, and management life. Happy Monday, I wonder what surprises and broken code 🖥️ is waiting for me in the office when I arrive and rush jobs. I mean the woke bus company is no more at least they don’t run the express bus I didn’t ride anymore.

One of the best reasons for changing the oil in your truck 🛠️ besides keeping the engine from seizing up from all that sludge, is how smooth used engine oil makes your hands and that wonderful smell. Manure, grease, diesel smoke all so awesome. 🚜 I mean you can wash the oil off your hangs but it seems to linger about on your skins. But it causes cancer, just like smoking and drinking does and burning all that plastic crap. Plus now I have all that used motor oil 🔥 that I will recycle it with the plastics the way any real country boy does it. ♻️ Don’t tell a liberal.

I’m hoping to get out of town this weekend. 🏕️ Not sure where or what state I’ll end up by the weekend, and I’m saying drunk or stoned poney. The nights as long for a good fire, especially if I can get a pallet to bust up and use with aforementioned items. Maybe tear up some trails with my mountain bike and if I get around to buying my license I can shoot some tree rats and cook them up. 🐿️ That cold sure feels good on the face this morning as do most mornings in the autumn in the wilderness. Vest weather for riding in, along with jeans and long-sleeved shirt.

Got to wear my blaze orange 🔶 while riding this time of year as both the mornings and evening are dark. Didn’t last week but it’s safer with other drivers. Mornings and evenings sure are dark! 🌃 Autumn is coming, can’t you smell the silage being chopped? 🌽 Hoping there will be enough time for a brief ride out to the Fisher Boulevard parcel of Five Rivers after work today 🌸 to read 📖 and observe nature before heading home when darkness comes early!
