A Couch Potato

Do all the good you can,

In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.
-John Wesley

I should have gone for an extended bike ride today. Instead I chose to 'eat more' Thanksgiving leftovers.

I went to mom and dad's house and spent another day there. I ate and ate and lounged and lounged. I watched television and felt like a couch potato. I guess that's what happens on holidays. They are meant to be spent this way…aren't they?

I still don't know if I am going to Los Angeles next weekend or not as it depends on Air Cal allowing me to board the plane after I inform them that I lost my ticket. The 'Ask Mr. Foster' Travel Agent that I used from work is the 'dildo brain' that screwed it all up. The agent sent my tickets to my business address without denoting my Suite or Floor. I never received them!

My sister-in-law, Sherri, has agreed to drive me to the airport on Friday night. I will worry about it at that time. I dislike ever having to worry.

I received answering machine messages from Chris Cordellos, Johnny Schaefer and Bonni Jayne today. Unfortunately, I could not reach any of them when I tried calling back.

I ended up getting my haircut by Roy at AVANTI's in Alameda for twenty dollars. I feel he did a pretty good job. I was recommended by them to become a male model.

I brushed it off by saying, "I guess I'll have to look into it."

The secret of life is never to have an emotion that is unbecoming.
