3 things you did today...

Well I went to work which sounds boring but I drive a forklift very fast and recklessly with skill. Then I came home got drunk and high and screwed my friend and watched a funny movie, a good friday night in my mind.

 

Just be careful with that forklift so you can continue screwing around.

They do tend to fall over on too sharp turns.

 

-Go shopping
-Eat ice melon
-Weigh myself

 

I'm glad you're glad, kind sir. Plus I'm lovin' your humorous comment -- big time. There's only one Shale. :sunny:

Thunderstorms off and on, so not biking weather. No movies opened this week anyhow so I stayed in all day.

1. Worked on my Webpages, deleting dead links, adding new ones, adding pics and content.

2. Did several rewrites back and forth with an editor on a piece to go in The Miami Herald about my history in Miami.

3. Transcribed my wife's biography that I found (It was typed on a manual typewriter in the '80s)

 

1. Discovered this forum :biggrinjester:
2. Dyed my hair :afro:
3. Got a call from my girlfriend. :love:

 

Okay, so I cheated: I did 4 things . . .

1. Hooked up my computer. :sunny:

2. Shopped at Safeway.

3. Watched a DVD (Harold and Maude).

4. Wrote a haiku about the movie:

HAROLD AND MAUDE

Harold has no friends
The grave is a friendly place
Maude won't let him go

Spent some time with my Mum

Broke my old juicer

Ordered a new juicer

 

Went to a record sale and bought 37 LPs.

Spoke to my dad over the telephone

Went for a six mile walk

 

37 LPs! Damn, I hope it was a good sale. :sunny: When I moved to the Pacific Northwest, I gave my LP collection to the Salvation Army: We're talking more than 500 albums. Wish I had given it a bit more thought.

P.S. BTW, I tried to say I liked your post (thumbs up), but somehow wound up with a thumbs down! Sorry about that. I really do think it's a good post, etc.

 

1. Finished writing an essay about my wonderful 68th Birthday

2. Rode my bike 10 miles because it was a beautiful day and I wanted to

3. Came on Hipforums and found a post by Queer Poet and was ecstatic!

 

1. signed out of highschool forever!
2. walked a LOT
3. separated my dreads

 

Happy 68th Birthday, Shale!! :sunny:

Plus you wrote an essay all about it. Now how cool is that! :2thumbsup:

It's raining a lot here, so no bike riding for me: Just a lot of haiku about books and movies I can't seem to get enough of.

Always awesome to find one of your posts.

Actually, it was about my special B'day present my new friend Michel gave me.
We spent the day together.
(Now I am a bit down because he has gone back to Montreal):sad:

 

I know what you mean about losing those old albums. I wish I had my old collection back. It was only about two hundred, or so, but I sure would like to have them back. The sale I went to was an ongoing one at a church in my neighborhood. Someone donated about 17,000 records to the church, which in turn has been selling them off and on for the past twoi months. Yesterday, everything marked $1.00 to $5.00 wqs marked down to a buck. Everything $6 to $10 was marked $2.00, and anything over $10 was marked $3.00. I spent $38.00 on a stack of albums with most being in very good to excellent condition. They still have thousands of records to sell, but I don't think I will go back for the next round because from what I was seeing yesterday, just about everything worth listening to (in my opinion) had been sold.

 

Wow, he's really cute! Lucky you! And you both look so happy together. I totally love to read/write essays. I've read way too many poems for comfort.

You got a good deal. :sunny: Some of these used CD and LP places charge up to $15 for a second hand copy of some of the same albums I gave away to the Salvation Army. I had a lot of classic rock albums from the 1960s. And a lot of them are hard to find on CD. Plus many of the older albums had awesome art on the covers: Like Cheap Thrills (Big Brother and The Holding Company). It's just not the same on a CD. Sort of like trying to appreciate a masterpiece on a postage stamp.
