The Week Just Ended

My Brother

This week is closing out and it has been eventful. Work was way too much. I have a problem keeping up.  I interviewed for a supervisor position this past Thursday. There are about 20 openings and 60 some people applied.  My  chances are pretty good as the numbers show.  I had conversations with several folks and the karma seems to be that I have a legitimate shot at this. In about three weeks I will find out   Its exciting and scary at the same time as I get this feeling that it may happen.

The End Game?

La Columbe

The Church in Pikesville MD

.I did some errands for Pat at the post office on Friday the 16th  planned the weekend out best I know how and that's about it I next went to "school" downtown for the day,  I went to  a trip down to Pikesville Maryland  to meet a friend. I took SEPTA to the Airport to get my car rental and away I went! This was an interesting experience for us. It was pretty cool.

School Nov 17

A Friend also planning a business venture which is about providing a service on the internet. Not sure how it will go but it should be interesting how it might turn out.

Cell Block H

I had conversations with a friend's girlfriend since he was acting erratic. She really cares about the dude and her voice kind of sounds like his. Simpatico, I suppose. I think they will work things out. Man, like high school.

 

Indian Summer

Indian Summer

The window is open. There blows the air
Laughing all the time without a care.

I am there

but it's all in my mind

something I may never find,
alas I'm told, in time.

Indian Summer Weekend

Sat Nov 10 8am

Saturday, November 10, 2012 It was a good day. I went to my first men's meeting in about a month. my neighbor friend wen to the women's meeting. I then met another friend at 3rd Street at the Starbucks near the meeting he attends on Saturday's.

Meeting

Alicia's Puppy

I hung out with my neighbor and she had a fire set up and we had some take out. I met her new year old puppy. It was cute as could be!

Going down Gwynne's Steps

It was relaxing for sure. I decided to Zip-Car and drive to Reisterstown MD. This town is near Towson near the Baltimore Beltway. I went for a friend's 50th birthday party. The ride was smooth and I arrived at about 7 pm. I had a blast. One of Gwynne's friend was real fun and funny. She had me in stiches.

Gwynne and Stuart

We laughed about the dollhouse and the spin cycle amongst other issues. We both had issues but we laughed them all away. Wish she did not live so far away and... I stayed overnight after watching "American Beauty". THAT film really gets to my gut for sure. It was the 3rd time I had seen it. I FINALLY realized who killed at the end.

On Sunday I met up with a friend and we watched the new James Bond movie. I arrived late but I enjoyed the movie quite a bit. I talked to R over the phone and more laughter ensued. I am planning a trip down MD way Saturday after class. That ought to be interesting.

The Dollhouse

Today, I went to a meeting met with Sponsor then did some cleaning and chilling for my Veterens Day off. It was a really nice mild Fall day!

The Past Week of Nov 5

Last  week was  a good week primarily because the president won reelection. He faced brutal attacks  over the past  four years and I love reading conservative sweat it after being such boastful loudmouths for so long anyhow the week was decent I was busy at work usual and I felt better in a mental sort of way.Its growing up a bit late. Here are some photos from the week.

57th and Chestnut

President Obama Wins 2nd Term

It was a good night for President Obama and a bad night for Todd Aiken and Richard Murdock. Looks like Allen West is going too. The Republicans have succeeded in keeping the House. They also succeeded in  creating exhaustion in the country.

I have NEVER seen so many attacks on a sitting president in my entire life. I thought they were bad with Clinton. You know he plotted to kill Vince Forster, and Ken Starr spent lots of taxpayer money to find out that an intern had oral sex after they ordered a pizza.

President Obama deserves a 2nd term. He has shown a steady head with the economy and foreign policy

Republicans are blaming Chris Christe, Hurricane Sandy, and my favorate a high school mural!
Here is what one website, the Daily Beast, take on why President Obama won this race with 332 Electoral Votes!

In reality, the Republican Party didn’t lose the election because of Sandy, because of Christie, or because of a mural. It lost because 71 percent of Latinos, 93 percent of black people, 73 percent of Asian-Americans, and 55 percent of women voted against it. The party did not embrace policies that appeal to these demographic groups—and lost. And that’s the GOP’s fault.

Well, have a nice weekend with NO political Ads

I am 51 Years Old Today

Today November 5 my birthday age 51 nine more years to retire as of today went to the meeting interesting discussion after the meeting at La Colombe coffee. I then went to work late and the morning wasn't too bad now I am attempting carfare to be done I'll go home and take it easy and then hopefully hang out with Wes and what's the elections. Its very close but leaning for the President. I think the political Cartoon shows one iconic moment in this election when President Obama worked will with Gov Chris Christie. As for me just had a normal work

November 4th Eastern Standard Time

Coffee Please

This morning I first got up and when I glanced at my phone, it was an hour earlier! So I went back to sleep. I woke an hour later and thought I would try to make a 10 am meeting at 3rd and South Street.
I  got the 21 Bus at 9:35 this morning. As you can see I started off without coffee. I ate, showered and went to the bus stop. Google maps was correct in that I did wait about 6 minutes at the stop.

On the way to South Street on the Route 57 bus a huge Tom Smith for Senate bus clogged the road then tried to park on the side of 3rd street What is your plan for the week? Maybe I will see you downtown or the web or a text message. Who really knows, I don't control others thoughts and actions, ya know!
Had a fun B-day party last night. Photos are here
Have a great morning & I hope you did NOT forget to turn your clocks back this morning or you may have been confused. Remember, "Spring Forward and Fall Back!

Gov. Christie Today

After the meeting I met up with my friend and we did some window shopping for shirts and pants at various stores downtown. I was really looking for a hat since it's so cold. I believe the low tonite is going to be 32 degrees for the first time this Fall. Speaking of weather, the aftermath of hurricane Sandy are wire apparent. New York may ask for a 2nd day of voting. The CNN reporter said it would be 20 days after Election Day. How weird is that? I mean the election could be decided by then and if it NOT, well," Houston we have a problem."

Back Room

The Blue Light Special

Back to my day, I did buy a hat at Marshall's, at least I think it was Marshall's. My friend and I went to Starbucks and I got 2 coffee's with my found Starbucks card. We agreed to meet at Saxbys at 7:30 before the 8pm meeting next door. I then decided to hit the Apple store to charge my phone. Well, with the iPhone 5, the store has very few plugs available, that fit my my iPhone 3GS. I next went to the AT&T store and charged the phone there. I had to hang around the store for quite a bit. I think I was there for about an hour. I then hung out in CC and met my friend at the 7 PM AA meeting. and of course it was packed but the speaker was very good. He lived with a mentally ill Mother and an alcoholic Father and had tons of roaches in the house and was pretty good with the ladies. Here is the Album that I have been listening to while on the computer for the weekend. I am just hooked on Steely Dan again. They are a timeless band and I never I was not way into this album like Aja or Countdown to Ecstasy. Well, tomorrow November 5th is my Birthday and I will be 51 years old. I think of Area 51 nowadays!
