I think maybe a lot of my confusion was the intense humidity, the rainy weekends and the troubles with my truck, imagined or otherwise. I wish I had gone out to Schoharie that two weeks ago when I had my freak out about the wheel bearing and then headed out to the Finger Lakes last Friday, but alas if that had been the case vacation would be starting to wind down on this rainy day, but instead I have to look forward to the future.
Busing it in on this rainy Thursday. ☔ There is a chance of rain on the ride in and probably certain rain by evening. I learned this morning that come the end of August they’re eliminating all but one express bus 🚍 downtown. That sucks for the days I’m not riding my bike in. I guess I can catch the 7:15 express bus downtown on days I’m up early and want to walk laps on the Plaza but the alternative is taking the local in or driving. And no more express bus. See what happens when you ride your bike in and vote for Trump, they take away your bus. Shit sucks. Might have to drive in more, as taking the local is so inconvenient, but I hate driving. That or rent or buy something closer to work. Or maybe actually buy land out in the country. When I don’t have a big jacked up truck, commuting wouldn’t be so bad.
I am ready for the heat and humidity to break. It’s been gross, I’ve been noticing the mildew creeping back up in my kitchen and bathroom but it’s been so hot I’ve not wanted to deal with it. Fruit flies too in the kitchen, I thought it was the compost which might be some of it, but I emptied that last week and it’s a seal container, so I took our the burnables yesterday. Need to now have a good fire to get rid of them. Honestly, I should clean out things better before tossing them but who cares if they ultimately going to use them for starting fires.
Tomorrow I am going to open up what will hopefully be my final bottle of contact solution. 👁 When that one is done and I have my LASIK done, it’s not going in with the regular trash but I’m going to save it to watch it burn and celebrate no more itchy eyes or struggling with contacts up at camp or any other morning. This morning my eyes aren’t irritated – I have a lot of issues on rainy, humid days for some reason with bacteria on my lens and in my eyes, but so often it happens. September 26th in that sense can’t come quick enough for the big snip. But actually due to the the period of having to not wear contacts to avoid irritation, I think the last day for contacts is September 23rd. Only 54 days remain.
Truth is that I am more in love with the future 😍 then in the present, maybe because reality is something less what the dream of future should be. Whether it’s the shiny new pickup truck which will quickly attract million stone dings and mechanical breakdowns, or shoveling hog shit in the heat and breaking ice in water troughs in winter or dealing with broke down solar equipment as I struggle to stay warm next to woodstove, somehow reality never works out like the dream. Apparently the advertisers have decided to tag me with Lemon Law 🍋 claims advertisements, even though I haven’t yet even bought a new pickup truck. But the dreams are never like, they’re all about how wonderful the future will be.
I started to look more at Facebook Dating. I think it would be fun to meet some new people. Of course it seems like Facebook is suggesting mostly people with goats and cows in their profile picture. Go figure. I wonder why, maybe it’s the pages I follow. Seriously though I’d probably dig a country girl or some guys to hang out with. I think it would be fun to meet up with people who share my interests, and aren’t about celebrating nasty fake plastic stuff like so much of society is about today, with the woke being like, dude don’t you recycle.
But first to get through this weekend. I haven’t taken off Monday yet but that’s the plan once I confirm the weather is going to be good. It would be good to get some pool and floating time in this weekend, and finally get back up to the woods. Big Red is fine, and getting away would be so good for my mind. Saturday looks to be cool but beautiful which would be great for hiking. The suspension will be a bit loose, and may always be a bit loose though things will improve after vacation on September 2nd when they replace the shock bushing. Then move forward. Next spring I’ll have a new truck and be getting ready for the great Michigan trip out west.
