Boston Legal

Just so you know, Boston Legal sucked again Monday. I think there are two groups of writers. The ones that suck have lame story lines and Denny's perversion goes over the line. Usually his perversion is funny. On the lame episodes it just goes too far.

Lucky

This week is Credit appreciation week. We get treats every day and one day we get to go out to lunch and then go see a movie. I am going to see the Duchess.

This weekend I went and saw Wayne "the Train" Hancock at Cranky's. Bought another memory foam mattress topper, this time for Greg's house. Couldn't sleep on his mattress. Now he can't get out of bed in the morning. Bought a new door for my tenant. Helped Greg install a new window in my tenants apartment. Ate at Mikeeee's Paynes Point. The food sucked as usual, but Greg likes it. Ate at Solea, service was wonderful as usual. We both had the Mocajete. Yum! Ordered snow tires for the Nissan, found out that the Miata needs: clutch slave cylinder, valve cover gasket, plug wires, radiator cap and flush and some bearings in the clutch are making noise. I need a raise!

Greg and I went tooling around on the back roads yesterday for fun. I got pulled over coming in to Medina from the west. 58 in a 35. Dude was really nice, whole process took 10 minutes. Never gave me a ticket or anything. I asked "verbal warning?" he said "something like that" and took off. Either he had somewhere else he had to be, or I'll be getting a big ticket in the mail.

On Island Road we saw a large critter in the distance snacking on a dead raccoon. As we got closer, we realized it was a bald eagle. It flew away as we slowly approached and went right back to work on it after we passed.

How do you catch a unique bird?

I'm always intrigued how each of us have such unique tastes in music, movies and books. You can never predict how someone else is going to feel about music, books and movies. My friend, Mike, has been recommending a movie to me. He swore it was right up my alley. I rented it and I hated it. The movie is "Into the Wild". Based on a true story of a young man who graduates college and purposely disappears. He goes on some adventures and finally decides to go out in to the Alaskan wilderness to live off the land. He becomes trapped in the middle of nowhere by a swollen river and ends up starving to death. The guy was a moron, it was no big surprise that he starved. No only that but ever since I watched it, I have had that feeling of dread that you get after you have a bad dream. The feeling that kind of sticks with you for part of the day. They portrayed his lonely miserable death pretty well and I just can't shake the feeling. I wish I never would have watched it.
Strange that a close friend would think that I would love that movie. Which brings me to another point. Seems like no one really has ever gotten me, or undertood me. Especially my family. They all probably wonder what planet I came from. No one, that is, except Greg. First person I ever met that just gets me. Well, my friend Lisa gets me pretty well too, but Greg really gets me. It's almost spooky. He is so intuitive with me that many times he knows what I want before I do. When I realize that I want it, it is already sitting there waiting for me. I can't imagine that happens more than once in a lifetime. I'm keeping this one.

Garlic

I planted 50 garlic plants last night. You plant it in fall, let it develop some roots, then harvest the following summer. Yummy!

Denny's Rooster

OMG Boston Legal was awesome last night! Great story line, and hilarious! I just can't get over James Spader. Back in the 80's he was in teen movies, who woulda ever thought he'd be where he is today.
Summer is over. Cold out today.

Monday morning

Hi Peeps! Sorry I have been a blog-slacker. I have been doing a multi-day on line backup of my hard drive, so I have been leaving my home computer alone.

This past weekend was the most beautiful weekend ever! The weather was awesome and the fall colors, amazing! Greg and I took the Miata on a road trip Saturday. We took backroads to Fremont and met Greg's brother, Creampuff and his wife, Mrs. Puff at Channel Cat's (formerly known as Slipknot). Lisa Coenen was there with her man, John. Had a very nice time. Looks like Lisa and I might be using my dad's condo in Ft. Myer's Beach this year. John's dad has a trailer there and John thinks he will let us use his new Lincoln. Awesome!

Please find attached, picture of Greg dangling me over the Fox River!!

Potter

I finally got to see "The Order of the Phoenix". First of all, I didn't know Helena Bonham Carter was in it. Secondly, I didn't know that Ralph Fiennes plays Lord Voldemort! Crazy!
