RAMBLING MIND AM I NOW A GEEK? APRIL 2020 IN MY LAIR
As I mentioned in an earlier post my partner (Bubbaloo) and I have been self isolating for the past 14 days. I did not have any intention of doing that until my Golf Course took away my power cart and the ability to ride with anyone even if they own their own cart. They said I would now have to stay a few meters away from anyone that I wanted to play with. Well I sat down and thought about it and after considering how much I hate to walk that golf course (or any golf course for that matter), self isolating did not seem like the end of the world after all.
The first few days saw me pouting a little, raging a lot and ranting about my life a bit. It wasn’t until the youngest daughter told me to get a grip, accept the social isolating and get on with a Project like this blog, that I had put off for a long time. Bingo I now had a purpose in life. She and her Mom as well as her sister promised to read it if I did it. I don’t think any of them expected me to go through with it. Well I read about how/where to start and sure enough I summoned up enough remaining brain power to cobble this humble offering together. I don’t know if I have an obsessive nature but I haven’t left my computer for 3 days. I have eaten a case of Doritos, not shaved and become a little sensitive.
My God I think I now know what a geek feels like. I itch, I have a stomach pain, one of my hands is orange and I am starting to hallucinate. OMG I just realized I may be an IT guy after all. If Bubba can teach me the art of sarcasm I could still probably qualify for a job in that field.
We have been going for a daily walk, this after I crouch down and peer thru the curtains making sure no suspicious looking Covid-19 carriers pass by. If all is clear we go out and do a slow walk to keep our joints limber. Anyway we have not yet attacked each other so things seem to be going well. My last piece of rambling is that one of my many fans has asked that I add a “book review” section to this blog. My God how many books must be getting read during this time? I will try and do this.
Three days a case of Doritos now do I look like an IT guy. “Call the hotline, you idiot can’t you see I’m busy”. Do I sound like one?

The only thing missing is the number to call for help, except wait….isn’t that your job as an IT guy?

Ya it is but you have to call me on the helpline first. I’ll answer that phone with my non orange hand.

I think the beard looks good pops. Glad you are doing ok and have found something to keep you busy. Looking forward for all this to be over so we can plan our first fishing trip of the year and also planning our trip with Lillian to the east coast later this summer. Cheers

Good for you Jimbo! Blog away and have fun. I must comment on the picture though…the last time I saw a look like that on a guys’ face was on a jamb packed commuter train in Tokyo. The crammers got one more body stuffed in just as the doors closed! I think the crammer was also a ten pin bowling affection-ado. Now, if I could only get those Natchos off my mind…..!
