God, I hate myself right now. I don't even know why. This feeling follows four or give pretty good days or normalcy. I don't mean Five Points rocking out to Villanova normalcy, but a normalcy just the same. If that was my default emotional state, I could live like that right up until the point the diabetes gets me.

 

If there is a day to feel crappy, today is the day. Regardless of what the calendar tells us, this is a late February/early March type of wind and rain. Weather.com says it is 57 degrees, but for me, 57 degrees is shorts and short sleeves weather. With the wind and the rain, it feels 20 degrees colder easily. I'm not one to complain about cold weather, but I have never claimed not to be one to complain about rain and wind.

 

It is just me and Lexie this weekend as my housemates are visiting family and friends for the “unofficial start of summer.” I'm in an ill mood. Lexie likes to go where ever I go when it's just the two of us. But instead of following where I go, she wants to lead the way and look over his back to see which way I am going. And I am pretty much standing there mostly because her fat ass is in my way, LOL. I guess I'm not much of a dog person.

 

My blood sugar has been pretty good lately, but I started up an old bad habit again. I was drinking a lot of Coke and Mt. Dew. For a while, I was keeping it to eating out or when we'd stop in a store on a road trip. Then I started buying two six packs, one of each. The other day when I bought the 15 pack of Dew in a can. I knew it was time to stop. I don't know f that is contributing to my mood today, but I am very pissed off. I just want some of that sugary confection!

 

One thing I had planned to do was to work on my photo albums. The one I have in progress was supposed to be a “Places” album, but I realized I had badly miscalculated the number of “Places” I had printed off. So I decided that I could use some train shots, which I had initially planned not to do for this album, if the shot placed the train somewhere anyone could recognize. (At least if they had been there, I guess.) That only went so far and now I question why I used the biggest album on something I don't have as many shots of.

 

Meanwhile, I have all kinds of L&C shots from basically all eras of the past 25 years as the end cab switchers gave way to Gps and now the Gps are giving way to six axle power. On thing I don't have? An album to put them in. That was some serious lack of planning there. The album I do have can't be finished until I get more prints (arriving Tuesday) and the one I need to buy has way more than enough photographs to go inside!

 

I was thinking of getting a rideshare to Walmart to see if they have a good photo album I can use. But I have looked there and can never have found a decent one. There are two Walmarts I can rideshare to. One is in the big metropolis of Red Bank. That's the store I can never find them at. The other is about as far away in another direction in Cayce, but it's a neighborhood market. No photo albums at all. So I guess I am stuck here. One thing both Walmarts would have? Coke and Mt. Dew!

 

I'm really lonely this weekend. Oh, yeah. That concert I wanted to go to is tonight. K Flay and grandson. Look them up@
