30th Street with Beggar

decided to rent a zip car because it would make it a lot easier to be a sloth in the morning.

On Route 30 West

I got my Zipcar after the meeting after I saw an artist I haven't talked to in a while.  I got my car

Procession

and drove all the way out to Parkesburg which took an hour and 10

minutes. It was a very tight and compact service. Who is very down to earth. You got Saturn Saturn for me as it went on especially when the father told me that he appreciated

my visits.

 I had split earlier than I wanted because Zipcar was due. The ride home just sucked. Anyhow him what

USB in Car. NICE

else can I say. I decided to get some Scripps and go to the café and Renada which is next to the laundromat

. And had a huge I had a huge veggie wrap along with a large coffee. I sorted through my pictures and talk to a friend on Facebook messenger.

Lauren and I Had Good Eats!!

The scenery in that area near gap Pennsylvania was beautiful I couldn't help but take pictures while I was in the funeral procession 

Gap Clock

because we were going about 10 miles an hour. So eating all this food and

Looming Clouds on Route 30 East

drinking this coffee is going to make me very tired and want to take a very nice power nap. I

Traffic Jam Back in Philly

may go out with my friend but she may not be available because she's got some heavy duty work stuff

over her head. And if not maybe I'll go through. Everyone else I know is I am tied up right now.

Facebook friend from Tennessee almost was going to call me but Wi-Fi died or what have you. I was going to

Cafe Renata

have a second cup and I'm hooked up to Xfinity for about an hour or half-hour until this computer dies. I'm still waiting for the cord that I left over in Ocean City last week.

Is already 5:48 PM it is spitting rain right now and I'm leaving the café to walk home. I'm gonna see if this theory that you drink coffee before

your nap and then when you wake up you're less groggy. And after that I may may not go out

tonight. Well my friend did not text so she had to take care of some very heavy business this evening. I got up from my nap and decided

to get a message at 13th and Chestnut so I will get out of the apt. Got a coffee at Starbucks and now

they are closing. Its 9pm and they are kicking me out.

It was a good weekend.

Saturday, June 28: A Hectic Saturday in My Life

View as I Got Up

Today is the last Saturday of June. I got up went to the men's meeting. I actually gave a nice coherent share today. I think it's a small meeting and page 417. Afterwords out with a couple guys talked about and culture busting on soccer is being the downfall

here and unwind. Well the trip to the art opening was kind of disturbing in a few ways. I'm not going to disclosing

The Woodmere Art Gallery on Germantown Ave

because this is an anonymous blog. Let's put it this way traffic jams, NO cigs,  misunderstandings, and bad attitudes abounded that's all I have to say. See my Facebook page for Dean's take on this moment in time.

Wes & Emily

I met up with Amy after she waits  an hour for me to come back to my place. It was mellow. We decided we take a walk and go to the percussion event on 40th and Walnut. They played Indian
