578th entry ~ Another warm day for October
5:28 pm
The previous post I did was photos of mine from around where I live. The fall colors are coming out beautifully right now. Those were taken over a week ago though. Have to take some more some other time.
The boy and I went on a bike ride last night. I litterally killed myself. We went for 13 miles. Half a marathon as he likes to tell me. I can't believe it. I pushed myself and my body responded like I thought it would. Hell. My knees hurt so bad last night I could not stand for more than 30 seconds at a time without being in pain. I know I'm going to have arthritus when I get older, I can just tell. Ugh.
The Badgers lost miserably last night. I have no idea what is wrong with that team but I have this feeling most of it is coaching. Terrible game they played. Presently watching the Packer game. So far they are leading in the fourth quarter. Hope they can hold onto that lead and make something of it. *Crosses fingers*
Depending on how long you've been reading my diary will determine how much you know about me. My home town houses a General Motors plant. Our plant has been selected to close by the end of 2010. We all knew though, or speculated that it would be by the end of this year. Well rumors have wound up being true and an announcement is expected Monday. Here the local paper talks about this but what I find more interesting than that are all the comments that come from the people of the town. Two things my hometown will always be talking about; GM and Mercy Health System. True facts. Sad news for my hometown, but we all knew it was long time coming. This plant produces most of the SUVs GM produces. That's why I say it was long time comin. I hope we will survive this but that town depends on GM quite a bit. Nobody in town pays close to what GM paid their employees. It's now a waiting game to see where this will go.
Looks like the Packers will win this game saying of course that they don't completely blow it.
I spied that the boy has his Yahoo Personal up again. He had it up a few weeks ago when I found it and noticed it said nothing about wanting to find friendship but instead stated what he would do if this person and him were to go on a date. I got slightly up set with that because he's always stated he hasn't given up on us. I have one up too but on mine it says I'm looking for friendship only. And I'm not emailing guys, I'm letting them email me. And when I talk to them, I make sure within 72 hours they know my present living situation. If they cannot understand that, then oh well. But he said nothing of this so I got upset. He took it down and now it's back up stating he's looking for friendship. Fine by me. I really don't care. We both understand that things won't work out between us. We are better off as friends.
It was another warm day for October here. Got up to 80 I believe. Of course the AC was on once again. UGH! I'll be glad when this lease is up. I'm outta here!!!
Tonight the TV includes Brothers and Sisters and Desperate Housewives. Sad that my life revolves around TV! Well I'm out for now. See ya.
