Every day is a winding road

Congrats to Kevin Kim who just completed a 58K “stroll” in just under 17 hours. I guess you’d call that pulling an all nighter. I admire his accomplishment but it is not one I have any desire to replicate.

Speaking of Kevin, I also always appreciate his helpful hints on proper grammar and punctuation. Which is to say he is never a Nazi about it. I thought of the Big Hominid when I saw this the other day:

What would Jesus say on this Easter day?

Meanwhile, I’m having a hard time maintaining my 20,000 daily step goal. It’s fucking hot in the morning when I walk the dogs which saps my desire to do my morning 10K. And then by the late afternoon when it starts to cool off some I no longer have the time or energy to get out for a long hike. Ah well, I’ll just have to try and find some inspiration like the guy who literally walks all night long.

This morning’s effort. I found the dirt road through the valley I’d been looking for, but alas, it wound up being a dead end and I was forced to retreat.
I did encounter this carabao/bird combination on trail today. Honestly, passing by those beasts always makes me nervous. They are huge and VERY horny…

Last night I prowled the streets of Barretto (what else is new?). The holidays are crazy here, but all my favorite haunts were open.

The lights of the city with the full moon providing additional illumination.

And finally, this made me laugh:

Build that wall!

Tough times these days. Need to change my life and get back on track. Am I up for the challenge? Stay tuned!


He’s got a daughter he calls Easter
She was born on a Tuesday night
I’m just wondering why I feel so all alone
Why I’m a stranger in my own life
Jump in, let’s go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low
These are the days when anything goes


Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer to feeling fine

  1. Thanks for the shout-out. Alas, I have to put the Grammar Nazi hat on and inform you that “Everyday” should be “Every day” (2 words).

    everyday = adj. meaning “ordinary”
    Shitting in my bed is an everyday occurrence.

    every day = (1) adverb of frequency, and (2) synonym for “each day”
    1. I shit my bed every day.
    2. Because I shit my bed so often, every day is torture.

    Aching all over, but I’m out and walking again today. Seems better than staying inside and acting like an invalid. Good luck as you deal with the PI’s weather!

  2. Yeah, I was actually asking myself “everyday” or “every day” and then the lyrics were printed as everyday, so I went with it…. Ha! I didn’t write the song, I’m not responsible!
