NOVEMBER 21 2009 1704 - JACKSONVILLE FL - Decided to go for a walk today, and it turned out to be a long walk indeed. By my calculations I walked for nearly 4 hours (or it could have been just slightly more than 4 hours, I really was not keeping track of time) before I had my first bite of anything to eat today.
I realize that was dangerous, because I did not take my blood pressure medicine today, so any massive elevation in blood pressure could have deadly results. Does not make a bit of difference to me, I mean after all, no one else seems to care, so why should I.
I figured it best that I get a hotel room for the night, so I am staying at a hotel near the Gate Parkway. Not a bad location, I mean it is close to a movie theater, close to TGI Fridays, and close to Hooters, so what more can someone like me ask for.
Speaking of movie theater, I went to see The Blind Side today. The story of Michael Oher, strong side offensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens. Turned out to be a pretty good movie. In short, it was the story of how one major disaster turned into a series of collective goods. I'll just leave it at that, but I will say it is a damned good movie. One of those family feel good movies. By the way, Tim McGraw can act after all.
So, what's on the plan for tonight? Not too sure, but will most likely be TGI Fridays for aps-n-ale, and then call it a reasonable night. I will most likely go back to the house tomorrow, but that is still up in the air. Why did I call it "The House" instead of saying "Home"? Sure as hell does not feel like home to me. Besides, the place I called home since 1995 was torn down by the City in 2007, and the wife makes it darned clear that I am living in "Her House", so as long as it is "Her House" I can never consider it to be home. I'm just the por sucker who got caught in the trap of paying bills for "Her House".
