Wednesday, October 4: I Fall! Hard Thumb Drive & Hair


Well, I got up Got up and filled up my bag with food since I didn’t have yogurt today. I got on the train late for some reason because time caught up to me.

 I think got off the train 15th. The train was nice cause it wasn’t crowded at all. I then tried to catch the Broadstreet Bus at 15th and market. While trying to 
run to one of the buses across the street 115 going north, I took huge tumble landed on my left hand and knee unfortunately, didn’t crack my phone or cracked any of my bones. I did rip my blue jeans on my left knee side 

and scraped my knee to help. Fortunately, Mike had a big gauze pad, and

 some tape so I put it on and as of 11:43 AM it’s still bleeding pretty good , I’m trying

 to save files to a $70 thumb drive to mail to Heather and be done with

 this adventure of trying to get photos. Unbelievable how complicated it 

was it really was. Anyhow, Mike and I decided to take a walk and 

we got grinders I got a tuna grinder. He got a turkey grinder. It was very good. It was just nice to go outside on a beautiful day. I believe it’s going to be the 

last really nice day until next Wednesday when I’m back from my trip from Buffalo.🦬 Anyhow, after that, I just did a little bit of work around his 

house wand then he had his therapist appointment so I went out and bought a pair 

of jeans to make it for the fact I had no jeans that were really 

wearable. I got back signed out and then then  went to catch the bus to Fairmount.

 Problem is I caught the 27 bus and got stuck going via the Schuylkill Expressway

 to the west and transportation center that’s a little upset and I had to call Uber and blow 26 bucks. Anyhow, I did show up on time not actually 20 minutes late but 

Sharon & Wes did wait up for me and we hung out and talk and then we went out to eat at 

this bar  and stay there until 45 minutes before the Phillies game. The 

Phillies ended up winning 7 to 1 to finish off the Florida Marlins. They’re

   going to play the Braves again this year 
in the NLDS. Well, Sharon did a really nice job on my hair and I’ll be back in 4 to 5 weeks they had to cut again. That way I look decent when I see my friend Kerry 

in Buffalo this coming extended weekend. It was good to see Sharon‘s house again and bring brought me back to a simpler time in my days of living. But things

 are pretty good. Now I must say, the weather is gonna turn closer to fall. It’s been summer

 for the last 3 to 4 days and it was very pleasant that’s for damn sure.

Sunday, November 13: Tripping around Philadelphia

Well I got up around 8:30 AM this morning. I had to get up towards Rocksborough and   Walnut Lane area of Philadelphia by public transit from South Philly. I took the dogs outside   ate breakfast and then decided to call Uber to get from my place to the   road Street line. Well after a fit in a start I did manage to find a group at the parking   ot at Walnut Lane near Ridge Avenue. I decided to get some coffee after meeting the date because I hadn't had any coffee. I then was looking for some place to charge my phone and I  found some coffee and place to charge my phone. By the time I got out  from there the group it already left. I wasn't bothered terribly I just knew I knew I wasn't   into it. I then looked up my   hone before I could run out and found out the nine bus it's the best   route to get back toward South Philly. I was very fortunate that   he local gas station nearby had to outdoor outlets. The gas attendant was   ery nice and let me use it and you also let me have a chair to sit on. I charge my   hone to 7% and then the bus came at 11:34 AM. Word of note the people running the   ecreation center in the Braves football team are very nice I got a coffee for a dollar and got to   harge my phone. Well I decided to get off at 30th St. station and take  the EL out to 40th St. I just started that I wanted to eat some Kabobbish  food before  I go back to South Philadelphia.It looks like Donald Trump is intent on scrapping the United States participation in the Paris climate change deal. The   reeman was just signed this year in 2016. So the climate change   eniers have a friend in the White House starting in January😡 well I got the Pats approximately 12:30 PM I  then found out he wasn't getting home from work till 2 PM. I just cited to charge up my phone  and take a nap to charge me up. I got up from my nap around 2 PM and Pat got home at 2:15 PM. We decided to split a vegetarian platter. Actually he paid my 
  way which is really nice and I helped him. I helped him with some basement 
maintenance . He plans to meet up his basement this week. It's now 4:22 PM I'm waiting for the EL at 40th St. I'm thinking to go to City Hall and then take the Broad Street line just to the end a Pattison. Michael's to get to her place before dark do the  scoop of poop and then do the feeding maintenance etc. and then take the 
 train back up and get to my meeting place by 715 at the latest.  Well I got lucky   hat I caught the Broad Street line going south just as I got off the EL well I got off   f Patterson Street and it definitely looks like the Eagles game at just ended because  the whole bunch of Eagles green jerseys on and then I stepped out of the L4 40 9 PM and there 's    shit load of traffic running along Patterson Street towards 20th where I'm walking to. Really no use taking 
 ber because it'll just be behind all this traffic so I'm gonna burn off some of my dinner. I think walking off my dinner  would help because; I  ate a whole bunch of that Indian food that's for sure! it'll probably take some of these folks till 7 o'clock to get home. 5:20 PM I'm in the midst of  taking care business   I picked up the poops and I'm feeding the dogs. Sharon just got a hold of me she had a busy day today. The Eagles ended up winning that game 24 to 15. It stopped her to the game Liz losing streak.   ow the Eagles 5-4. OK my goal is to be done here by six and give myself an hour and 15 minutes to get to 19th and Walnut. It's quite a ride down Broad Street line that's for sure
well it's 7 o'clock and I just crossed broad and Walnut Street. so I should be able to make it in to 19th St. by 7:15 PM yeah I  made it  about 7:15 PM and did did my coffee making thing. Next to hung out with Larry and Veronica  are at as well as Natalie and her husband. We we chilled out for a bit and then listened to a decent speaker.
