October 26: Life in the City

I went to Sunrise after waiting for a bus was 15 minutes late. Afterwards, I then hung out with a friend Starbucks. I'm went  the

TD bank at 38th to get a cashier's check for the landlord . It will be the last time I pay $500.  to use the rent will be up in December. Let's see  get a weird post on

Pat's Ca

Facebook arm and I think was directed me but oh well I learned something. I'm sitting here at ordering a pizza with a cute little kitty cat on my lap. I just called Pasquale's pizza and that now getting a large pizza

My Parents 1972

g with green pepper and mushroom.

I then  to go to Harry's Occult Shop  for a book signing with Larry and his wife. This ought to be VERY interesting for sure. Maybe I will go to South Street early and get my haircut and face cut as well. I suppose

Probation DONE!!

I should look a little more normal. The black and white photo is of my parents taken in 1972 going on a vacation at the Greenbrier. Its a nice hotel they liked to go to to escape us kids ( 7 in all) every so often. I think my mother liked to

go glamorous sometimes. Note the fur coat. My father was still wearing a hat which was a conventional men's attire that was popular until the 1970's

Pat's New Drum Kit

 I just thought I would just randomly add this. Pat just told me today that he bought a set of Tama drums. It's 5 piece and he is certainly glad it for about $300 bucks Pat said to that he always wanted to get a drum kit! I am now on the bus heading eventually to a book signing 

at Harry's Occult Shop on South Street.

On the way to the book signing I got my haircut at the Chop Stop at 6th and South. It felt good to get all that hair off.

A Book Signing was Held Here.

I then went to Harry's Occult Shop at 1238 South Street.It had a nice incense smell and it was a nice store. It got pretty cool since when the sun was setting. At 6:17 PM and we left Harry's and took the Broad Street line then the Market-Frankford Line to 2nd Street. T9here we went to the Book Trader where Veronica had a 2nd book signing. I went up to Larry's and watched a little of the

Larry and I at Harry's

World Series between the Red Sox and the Cardinals (Cardinals won in the 9th on a funky play). I talked to Kerry and Molly

Veronica and Store Employee.

while they were driving home from going to a state park near Buffalo. I then took the EL home and I saw that dude Max we met at the Cigar Shop. At the Cigar Shop he talked about Ok Cupid and the women in it. He has a company called Bio-Meme.

A Pretty Dog at Cigar Shop.

With his product, you can test people on your phone for chlamydia and other sexual diseases. Really weird, yet a concept that might take off

Halloween is Near

in this day and age.He told me he dated a borderline (Umm)I got his phone

number. He is from Santa Rosa California.

Max on the EL.

I went home and thought I would make pasta but I fell asleep while the water was boiling. THANK GOD, I got up an hour later and the water was still at boil.

Manayunk Towpath

After walking the towpath and taking pictures, i was invited me for lunch so I came back on Manayunk train with a bunch of Kenny Chesney fans. They were mostly really young girls with their boyfriends and beers at the train station. when I got back to West Philly i walked to  39th. We chilled out and then walked the dogs and I'm now doing Pat a favorite at the  TD Bank.

We are going to have  homemade Indian dinner and then I will be taking the train to a book signing at some woman's house in  Penn Wynne. I will be taking the EL to 69th St and then the  P&W. it's formally called the Norristown high-speed line around 6:30or so.

Well the Norristown High Speed Line. I missed my stop and I got off one stop PAST the correct stop!!

I did a 27 minute walk to a book signing up probably and by the time I get there in Penn Wynne, I am in Havertown  right this moment! The book signing was pretty good the woman was pretty interesting after I got over her repeated Jesus references. She was pretty cool when I got to talk to her.

Mini Husky!

SEPTA on Sunday night is not really ideal. I took a trip inside my own city and I enjoyed it very much. This week I have not been in the mood to blog so much. Very tired and unsettled. I think due to owing $$ to family and the overdue student loan.
NEWS FLASH!!!!
Dean will NOT be staying with me for awhile. Got word he must go to a facility for awhile. I got this from his public defender. I found this out on a voicemail I heard yesterday around 7pm, just before the Gratitude meeting. OH, I chair Thursday morning's July and August for topic discussion every other week with another man. Ought to be a funky Summer. Also planning to go to Michigan and LBI. I am also attempting to eat better with mixed results.
I babysit a dog in Overbrook Farms as well.!!!!! LOOK OUT HERE COMES SUMMER!!!!!
