Hey, I needed it.
Had an appointment at the work comp doc early.
Up and out to breakfast at my favorite diner on the bike (1984 BMW R100).
Went to the appointment, was told I "definately need surgury," and I left just not giving a fuck.
Stopped by my old college, where I got my 2nd Master Degree and my Principal Certification, and ordered 5 transcripts.
Rode through the back country all around town to the motorcycle dealer where I had a brake job 2 weeks ago.
Told the owner one of his employees dropped my bike, most likely taking it off the center stand.
He wanted to fire the guy but I would have none of that.
I told him, "The fairing is already duck-taped, but if I didn't say anything about it I'll just fume about it."
We got to talking shop, bikes, that's right.
It' started out as a Honda dealer.
I'm rebuilding a classic mid 1960's Honda CB450 and got stuck rebuilding the head.
He said he knew the job easily and had 2 mechanics from the "old school" as well.
We cut a deal, "Hey," I told him, "you get this head put together and the engine running for me and not only will I forget about this business but I'll be a continuing customer as well." (Of course I'll pay him as well!)
Agreed!
Wow, that engine project sat idle for 6 years, what a relief so see some direction again.
Went home, a roofer came over, getting a new roof, great experience because he knew how to repair several other issues bothering me as well, Sweet, so what next?
"TO THE POOOOOL!" yes
Went to the pool and the wife and I were flirting like the old days.
All that walking is making her hotter by the day.
She said she's busy with all her boyfriends but can maybe squeeze me in next week! LOL
"I have one better," I said, "I'm taking us to Boston for July 4th week, just for the hell of it!"
Thinks are cooking now.
Still injured as hell, don't give a shit.
I can recouperate, time to exercise the mind, get it right, make a plan.
Then, 2 hours of swimming with the wife and 2 daughters, priceless!
Hot as hell. Was swimming like crazy all over with my daughter sitting on my back.
Shoulders hurt like hell but played through anyway.
Swimming is great for just about anything, right?
Later, after a great spaghetti meal the wifey made, I sit here with the extended orange glow of the sun as it set over the trees, belly full, heavenly bliss.
Ahhh, time to tuck in the girls, and the end of a perfect day!
Now I can surf into the dreams of the night.
