Rain.

     Morning.  A wee bit before I put on the coffee.  It's Sunday.  Been a not to terrible weekend.  Came home Friday and made my new obsession, pizza.

     I buy already prepared shells and just jazz it up.  Well I've also recently rediscovered my love for hot peppers.  My dad used to love them.  He'd do something to them in an old pickle jar and eat them right out of it.

     Sometimes I'd join him.  Always gave me the same warning.  "They burn both ways.  Going in and going out."  Still I ate them.

     Think it was last week, food shopping.  For some reason the jalapeno display caught my eye and I said why not.  Grabbed one and took it home with me.  Cut paper thin slices and put it on the pizza.  Wow.  Brought out some nice heat.  I loved it.

     Fridays had thicker slices with some sauteed mushrooms.  Ones I'd made some time during the week for burgers.  Was pretty good if I do say so.  And Saturday breakfast?  Remainder of pepper and mushroom, slice of cheese, on a nice whole wheat tortilla. Heated of course.  Let's see any of the fast food chains make me something so good.

     Was supposed to be warmer yesterday and all rainy.  The rain didn't really let it feel much warmer.  Just hung about til 11 and then went out.  Had to buy a few things.  Gray skies.  Little spritzes of drizzle here and there. So grabbed a cigar and headed for the water.  Punched, been using a punch later, lit, boom the skies open.  Hightailed it home and finished under the overhang.

     Other than that just a lazy sort of day.  I should of course cleaned.  Didn't.  Dinner?  Pizza.  No, just plain cheese.  Didn't want to over do it you know.

     I've already told them we are shopping for basics today.  Haven't got paid yet.  Took the last bit of money out of my account.  I've a whole $1.45 to my name right now.  We've $85 to shop.  We need $150.  I already explained I cannot afford another $300 on my credit card bill.  So we'll see what happens.

     Going to put on coffee.  Thinking on bakery run.  I've been good food wise this week.  Hit the gym all but 1 day.  Whole wheat buttered roll and a chocolate danish.  Which I always heat in the micro for 13 seconds.  Why 13?  Just because.

     Not even sure I'm going to the lounge today.  I've really lost my love of the place.  Partly the new owner.  Partly my disconnect with my friend there.  He's still annoyed about the ownership change too.  Still feeling the opposite of the big fish in a small pond as it were.  We'll see what happens.  Oh I should mention that I'm not even sure I can afford a cigar today anyway.  I could check.
