Went to the pool for a swim this morning. I've got that whole breathing thing figured out and it's nice to feel so much more comfortable now. Feels like I can just focus on swimming now instead of fighting for air. I am a total swimming noob...I still can't do more than one lap without stopping to rest. FYI I do not aspire to be a "triathlete", but I want to be able to do a triathlon if I decide to. There is a weekly off road sprint series that MBC does and it'd be cool to participate this year instead of holding the camera every week.

I have short hikes around San Diego planned for the next three days. I like this weather but there are far too many people here.

yesterday's squirrel was taken away by a hawk. i'm assuming it was a hawk.
The dead squirrel in my yard is still there. There used to be a lot of Turkey Vultures that would congregate in this area. A new apartment complex went up and all the vultures are gone. Can't help but to think someone done did away with them. That is cool though, the smell of rotting flesh is much nicer than scary looking birds.

there are turkey vultures in our region too, but this time of year the are preoccupied with all the deer carcasses that are being uncovered from the spring melt.

perfect weather for this song today......going to see them tonight.


I was born on a close street down a hill
The trees that line the street
Could sense the winter change
They felt the chill
They ducked and dived
And so we knew that they were alive
Until the year the silver rain came down
The trees turned mauve
And so did my hands
Oh, and the sound. ..
There was no sound and I'm freezing in the sun
Nobody cares to hide the dopeheads and the suicides
'Cause everyone freezes in the sun
And it's fallin' away

I kicked around with Harry
Who lived near Salisbury Plain
He worked on the cathedral there every now and again
He worked with stone, carved with stone
Odd jobs on the telephone
One sunny day he was sent to the Houses of Parliament
Chipping' away at the gargoyles
Under the blistering sun
He carved out "Maggie Sucks" on the backs of every one
And so in five-hundred years
There's gonna be some history here
After it all subsides in the sun

And it's fallin' away
And I don't wanna know
I'm glad I don't know
What's draggin' it under

Another day, another loon
A new pied piper calls the tune
So blow it up, watch it explode
Noah's ark on overload
Wrestle with the results and throw 'em round the ring
Everybody knows there ain't no rules in wrestling
(everybody knows there ain't no rules)
The referee's a dupe
Who only old ladies and children believe
I'm getting up now to leave
I'll go back to that street someday
The air's better there anyway
Though the trees are still gonna freeze in the sun

And it's fallin' away
And I don't wanna know
I'm glad I don't know
What's draggin' it under

If you bought a first class ticket, this wouldn't happen, 'cordin' to Squeeb.
I'm pretty sure the class of ticket I purchased has no sway over the IQ of the jackass I am still in the midst of dealing with. Which is more or less on par with congress' approval percentage.

Just saved us hundreds in buying a new washing machine by replacing spent coupler. I think I earned myself some beers and a ride tomorrow morning / late arrival to work.
