Crazy daze

Well, as crazy as it gets around here. Which really isn’t that crazy at all. Other than when I try to fake a smile.

So, the Wednesday Walkers had a relatively tame and sane morning hike out Subic town way. Here’s how that looked:

We grabbed a Jeepney in Barretto and started here
And off we go!
The quiet backstreets of Calapandayan
The first cookie delivery of the day
And the first of two graveyards we walked past. This gal lived fourteen years longer than I have.
Goats showing us the way
Only one hill climb on our journey
A view from the top
What goes up, must come down
Passing through Jurassic Park
More sweets for the sweet
We hadn’t been this way for a while and were walking in the opposite direction than usual, so it had a new feel.
Through the fields we go
No rest for the weary
Pond side
We got this in the bag
If the bridge holds me, we are all safe
Safety standards for construction workers appear to be nonexistent in this country. Scary to watch those guys on the roof.
Riverside living
The beauty of Subic town
A funeral in progress as we passed through here
Those smiles are worth more than the cookies
On the waterside
Walking on the waterside
Bridge posers
Almost paradise
That is an odd name for a high school sports team. Stop! You’re killing me!
We finished at the Subic marketplace
And caught a bus back to Barretto
A pleasant enough 5K stroll

When beer o’clock rolled around, Swan and I headed into town and started the good times at BarCelona.

The usual view, but it was nice to see some sunshine for a change.
Swan’s sister came by to join us
And another fake smile at Swan’s insistence. At least I didn’t go crazy.

We did our nightcap downstairs at Green Room, ordered some takeout from Sit-n-Bull, and made it an early night. No one got floored this time! Sorry for the misleading title of this post, but you don’t have to be crazy to have fun. Right?

In the memory category, I came across a post from April 2020 while checking to make sure today’s title hadn’t been used before. It was about life early in the COVID lockdowns. Talk about crazy days!

And there was this from my Facebook feed two years ago:

Or move to the Philippines. Age is just a number here.

Today’s YouTube video features The Filipina Pea interviewing a massage therapist. In my single days, I never used the parlors. Lots of gals provided the service at my home. It was nice having “friends with benefits.”

Here’s some crazy humor for you:

Oh, crap!
Two shitty jokes in a row!
Okay, now that’s more like it.

I’m still digesting what the cardiologist said today, but I’ll make a full report on that tomorrow. Some additional tests are in my future, and she also modified my daily prescription medication intake. Let’s see how long she can keep me alive! In the meantime, I think today is a good day to pass the hours up at The Rite Spot On The Roof. And that’s just what I’m going to do. You can’t get much less crazy than that!

    Frightening. Fake smile? More like a lunatic’s grimace.

    She was born a year before my dad.

    I bet you’re the picture of health.

  2. “I bet you’re the picture of health.”

    I posted the picture of my health and you called it a “lunatic’s grimace.” Oh, wait. That was the picture of my MENTAL health. Never mind!
