Thursday February 2: Groundhog Day🦫 & Buzy Things

Today I woke up in the suburbs along with other suburban 
people. And then got myself rest up ate breakfast had some coffee and rest and watch the train arrive 12 minutes late. anyway so I wasn’t upset. Most suburban people seem

 like they were used to the train being late. The beeper man came by and zapped my senior trans past which still works by the way. I also found out my Venmo doesn’t 

work. I have to figure out my username for TDBank to get Venmo to work. Today is February 2 which means   it’s Groundhog Day. This is a day when Punxsutawney Phil is brought up in front of a bunch of people to predict if there’s going to be six more weeks of winter. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow. Therefore we have six more weeks of winter. Maybe it might snow 

but I doubt it. Well apparently any cold comes in through

 a doctors office go straight to voicemail. I called to get an appointment with the doctor about my wound and I 

missed two phone calls from Penn. I also got a mistaken phone call from some other 

hospital about somebody’s daughter and it was labeled prison something prison care so I called them back told 

him you got the wrong number. I have an appointment for Monday, February 6 at noon

 to take a look at my lovely wound on my back. it was either that or go to urgent care

 and wait three hours. That’s just how they roll around 

here at paint same is never around and you know I’m just gonna keep on disinfecting and changing Band-Aids every day. Anyhow Mike’s mom‘s meals just came 

in through Amazon as of 1130 and I’m going to have lunch now instead

 of running down to South Philly and , I don’t have three hours. I need to pick up a script

 later and get a change of yoga clothes so I have to go back home anyway.  Well, I went back home 

and had a unpleasant and pleasant surprise. The unpleasant surprise was the city reported

 my tax refund as income and I may have to pay tax on almost $4000 in 

tax refunds even though I didn’t deduct state and local taxes so I’m going to have to talk to somebody, I also

 got my new yoga mat and pick that up as well. I’m taking the train down to 

Mike’s before hand they have to hold the train and let it sit in Milbourne
 for some reason it’s now 2:38 PM. Well, I went to class and it was pretty hot today. My balance wasn’t as good as yesterday and I decided that I wouldn’t do a double in fact, I need to pick up scripts to Pharmacy. I 

think Pat offered to do it at seven but I think I’m just gonna pick them up and say fuck it and just go home and stay home I’m just Tired you know worked hard and it’s now 6:04 PM. I’ll 
see how I feel once I run around to the pharmacy and get the Scripps call. I ended up just going straight home and relaxing and eating for the evening.

 Also got my packages did my laundry. Also talked on the phone as usual. 

Tomorrow’s gonna be a start of very cold weather. I have to get up early tomorrow for Mike since we have any 15 CAT scan appointment but

 it’s pretty close by on 18th and South Street. We can take the bus.

Tuesday, February 2: Groundhog Day. 6 More Weeks of Winter. Snowstorm Aftermath


Well today I woke up and I woke up a little earlier than usual because I got 3 MA support reports to finish by the end of the week. There’s a story 
behind that that the files weren’t found 
until just this week. So it’s basically the whole month of January has to be done in a week. Anyhow the snow still coming down very softly but still coming down. This is interesting.  This is a CBS news report. They had  
Punxsutawney Phil predicting 6 more weeks of winter. This correspondent at CNN  really lays it out but the  The politics up today is  about and especially the Republican Party. Well today snow kept falling 
but it was very light. I had another report to do.  It’s about a list of sections throughout 
the county. Most of the cases were closed. I went through it pretty 
carefully and almost finished it I think. I then went down to the car and dug it out of my parking spot. Fortunately I brought that shovel with me so I was able to 
get out fairly quickly. I was to notify stressed at work. I then I drove to Ardmore. I got the parking lot to get stuck. Going then dug out a bit. Lynn came over to finish the job. tonight went to a meeting online.

Sunday, February 2: Super Bowl Sunday and Censorship

Well I got up earlier than the alarm this morning around 7:30 AM. I woke

 up about hungry and I had weird dreams. Do you want Birdsall or drink ever dreamed about Amtrak in my history of rides on Amtrak. Also I didn’t mean to remind me I need to file 

 y taxes so I can get my refund back. I got up got The Hill and headed  n down to 33 Pepsi 33 bus. As I was 



 leaving, I saw this article in Philadelphia magazine about Millennials that are all twisted up about having kids

 or not. The author of the article lives in Fairmount with her new husband. She was

 making eggs and writing the article. It was very adorable. I can’t wait to share it with


 couple of my friends. I showed up early on Sunday and it’s not quite as packed as normal. And fact 
 yesterday I had as many people if not more people.My plans are the go to 

 eeting go to Larry’s place
and eventually head to media to watch the Super Bowl with my brother Dave and Wes. Well that was an interesting meeting about the 6th step. I then went to the CVS to get some 



 ood and caught the 48 bus towards Larry’s. I’m going to Larry‘s now to bring in the tables that I left  out for the dude who lies that he didn’t pick up. Larry somehow has access to the outside 

 f the condo with a spy camera. I don’t know if it I think it’s a condo secret  that I don’t really need to know. Same as 

 ike why babies are made and stuff. It’s now 12:50 PM here at 2nd & Market  I’m in Larry’s kind of sitting here waiting for Reggie to show up and then seeing if other people show 
 up and I’m supposed to pack stuff I will for sure take the clock today I really like that clock so I’m taking that for sure. I stayed with Reggie for awhile and the guy came in for the table the two end tables and a 

 igger table. And an ottoman. I gave those away because by Wednesday of this week, no one’s gonna be fine of ottoman for $10 especially a used one. I would’ve taken it and take it. I 

 hink I’m going to Rent-A-Car Monday night and deliver some shit back to my place. I’m also going to hire Reggie to help me hang up pictures on my part. It’s been a long time and he seems like a nice dude and he has a way of hanging up

 pictures without putting bunch of holes in the wall. After all that jazz I took 

 are of some business and then to the market Frankford line to Upper

 Darby and then took the train to the Super Bowl event at my brothers  in Media. Wes joined us and arrive at the same time I did. It was really fun. Debbie made the best

 chili I’ve had in a long long time and it keeps him back to score 3 touchdowns in the 



 ourth quarter to win 31 to 20. There was this beautiful trick play that the Chiefs did where the players get a pirouette. I

 loved it🤩 We stayed until 10:30 PM at the ball game. And then it’s time for Wes

to drive me back home. They cut me a real break because I wouldn’t got 

 ome till close to 11. Hopefully Dave Wes and I can hang out more often

 since the kids are not in the house and they live in an empty nest. 

 verall, it was a good day. Wish I had tomorrow off I just Kaina want to do really

 nothing sleep in a little bit. Eyebrows are really good day. I enjoyed
 the company of Dave and Wes and that delicious chili. I just saw that Punxsutawney Phil forecasted in early spring since you did not see his shadow. There’s a group called PETA that wants to get rid of the tradition

. They want to have the groundhog be some kind of robot. I think that’s the silliest thing I’ve ever heard. I’m so glad Kansas City one and then he reached out to Super Bowl trophy
