That’s the plan, and y’all thought I had no goals! I’m beginning to wonder if this old blog will die before I do; readership is down 50% from six months ago. Yeah, I get it. When you have seen it all repeatedly, what’s the point of seeing it again? Anyway, posting here daily is one of my routines, and I plan to keep on keepin’ on until there’s nothing left to say, even if there is no one who wants to hear (or read) about it. Fair enough?
There was really nothing special about yesterday (other than surviving), although there was a bit of a surprise along the way. Stick around, I’ll get to that.




At the appointed hour, I embarked on the weekly Hideaway feeding.


And then I was in for a surprise. As I was preparing to pay my tab and head out, suddenly the music changed. The next thing I knew, the staff was serenading me with the “Happy Birthday” song.

Wow! I wasn’t expecting that. I had a small piece to be polite, then hightailed it out to John’s place, where Swan was awaiting my arrival.


After our Han-Mex fusion dinner, we had a drink at Red Bar. We had planned on a nightcap at Jumpin’ Jacks, but once again, the bar was closed. So, we paid the rare visit to Annex Bar instead.


Un día más ha terminado.

Sadly, life has now come to an end for a long-time member of the local expat community.

We’ve progressed to April 2012 in the LTG archives, and I enjoyed reliving a memory of what a day I deemed “close enough to perfect” was like in the Itaewon chapter of The Story of My Life.
I finally broke down and watched a YouTube video discussing this object hurtling through our solar system that may or may not be an alien spacecraft. I remain unconvinced and will not be updating my list of ways I’m likely to die just yet.
As always, I’ll try to leave you with a smile:



And that’s the way it is. Another Hash Monday has arrived, and while walking the dogs, I saw the Hares this morning marking the trail, which passes through Alta Vista. I guess I’ll find out soon enough where it goes. I will tell you all about it tomorrow, provided I survive.
So you live from day to day,
And you dream about tomorrow
And the hours go by like minutes
And the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something
To make them go away
I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind
From wonderin' what I left behind
And from worrying 'bout this wasted time
” readership is down 50% from six months ago ” , well I’m still here and start my mornings off with a visit to LTG. It was more entertaining to us old farts when you had a different girl friend every week , but you seem much happier now.
Good morning! I appreciate your continued readership, Terry. I’m not sure there is a way to jazz things up, given the mundane nature of the current lifestyle, but I am going to try to make things a little less boring around here. You may have noticed I don’t post as many photos from my walks lately. It’s hard to find anything new in my same-old, same-old world, but less of the old stuff you’ve seen countless times is a start.
If there is anything you’d enjoy reading more about, let me know.
