I had brunch with Barbara, Cindi and Joel, the new guy Cindi is dating. The food was good and the conversation was lively. Brunch was a lot more fun than dinner with Trish. I think I’ll avoid having dinner with Trish for a while.

Hijacked Birthday
Posted in friends, my life on February 23, 2012 | 2 Comments »
About two weeks ago Trish said she would take me out to dinner for my birthday. I accepted the invitation and we agreed to finalize plans this week. Cindi also asked me to go out to dinner for my birthday when we were at the opera on Friday night. I told Cindi about Trish’s invitation [...]

I had lunch with Mike on Saturday at Hamburger Mary’s. Mike always has an amusing story and Saturday was no exception. Mike sold our mutual friend, Turk, a 2012 Audi A5 on February 1st. On February 9th, Turk hit a sofa that had fallen out of a pickup truck on a remote highway in Nevada. [...]
Opera Night

I rode the light rail downtown on Friday to meet Cindi for dinner before the opera. The train buzzed down the track alongside I-25 while the evening rush hour traffic crept at a snail’s pace. It was a wise decision to take the train as I didn’t have get frustrated with the traffic into downtown [...]

Trish’s poetry reading turned out to be a lot of fun. She was second to go on and her poems were well received. There were eight other poets reading their work. One guy only had three lines to read. It was a good start but it I found it rather odd that he didn’t come [...]
Patty 2.0 a.k.a Trish

Patty is now Trish. It seems that everyone but Steve, Trish’s late husband , and K and I called her Trish. I’m trying to get used to calling her Trish, instead of Patty. I’ve known her as Patty for about fifteen years. It’s going to be an adjustment. Trish is reading some of her poems [...]
It Started Out Good…

It was the best of weekends, it was the worst of weekends. As you can see, I’m being influenced by Charles Dickens today. K was home this weekend and we planned on having a good time with a special dinner out to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Saturday morning was spent enjoying a nice breakfast and lounging [...]
Thougth For The Day

I find it rather odd that the Catholic Church opposes a rule a controversial rule requiring religiously affiliated employers to provide full contraception coverage to women but often failed to take action against priests who were molesting children. It’s perfectly fine to molest children but don’t even think of helping women with their contraception needs. [...]

The snow was about sixteen inches deep at our house. There were some drifts that were about thirty inches deep. The front sidewalk had four feet of snow in some place because the snow plow pushed the snow onto the sidewalk. I cussed the city with every shovel load. Homeowners are required to clear sidewalks [...]

Our neighbor, Katy, finally sold her house. Her house was on the market for eighteen months. She closed last Friday, moved out on Saturday and the new owners started renovations on Monday. Katy told me the new neighbors are family with three children and an au pair. Work was out of control earlier this week. [...]
