Hunting

The rabbits are back. Eating the food Misao puts out every night. And many in Wisconsin spent this day in the cold wilderness not in pursuit of rabbits but deer. I haven't had the money to hunt for many years now. I miss the cold that just gets colder as you venture out well before sunrise to set up in a stand or blind.

This Saturday I finished recovering from those two days of digging up hard clay soil. Felt like I was coming down with a cold and wiped out the last two days. Exercise keeps one regular. And strenuous labor all the better. After two rigorous days, not even eating much and cleaning out my guts, I thought surely I would have lost some weight.... Not even half a pound.

Slept eight hours last night. According to my cpap machine I averaged 6.4 hours of sleep a night over the last seven years. More medical bills and then they want to charge me to reset my machine to a higher setting per the doctors prescription.

Last Saturday we went to breakfast with my parents. Saw their new condo. They will be in Florida for Christmas. The last time we were in Florida was Misao's birthday in 1998 when our flight to Brazil had to make an emergency landing. They said they forgot to fuel the plane. Everyone got out and received a nice meal but us. They wouldn't bring our order, took our silverware, and then three guys showed up in front of me to say "That isn't the guy." We ended up very hungry and missing our connecting flight.

I feel sorry for 'the guy.' 'The guy' being the eternal nemesis of 'the man.' I prefer to be 'a man' plain and simply. Just like everyone else except where I excel far beyond the other and they beyond me.

Ray's is behind schedule but will be opening soon. I'll have to go at least once this Winter. A season pass would make a nice Christmas gift. But we still have clear streets (and trails) and if you know how to dress plenty of opportunity to ride. Metro will be having their Turkey Hurl ride I imagine, though they haven't posted anything on the site. Those lights the Metro Mountain Bikers got a deal with seem to be defective. That's the rumor anyway. As of yet we have no plans for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Good Luck! and happy hunting to all those hunter adventurers.
