mysecretlife's blog post - Rainy Wed

Raining here today and looks gloomy. Good day to do some laundry and housework.

My trip yesterday went well. Butt got pretty sore. Embarrassed myself real good. Dropped my bike, skinned my knee and tore my jeans. Still don't quite know how it happened but loose gravel and motorcycles don't go well together.

Today my shoulders and back are sore. I don't have a windshield so you have to hang on the whole time. My bike isn't a good long trip bike but I really love it for short trips and riding around town.

Did not get to meet Tracy but did meet a dispatcher named Mary. She was real sweet and cute so my day could have been much worse. Tracy came on duty after I left. She did call later to make sure I got home ok. Maybe Mary told her about my little spill. That is one thing I really like about this company. People you don't know are always looking out for others. Also we checked the weather before I left and there were storms building between there and here and sure enough I got caught in one of them. Got my ass soaked. Oh well, just more of the adventure. My therapist says she thinks with my job and some of my past relationships that I seek out crises. I don't know that I agree with her but I know I don't want a dull, routine life. I do like to do exciting things but I would like to find a good steady secure relationship. I know I could be with one woman and be perfectly content. That is not to sday that I would let that get dull though. I believe any reward or fulfilment you get out of anything is directly proportional to the effort you are willing to put in to it. I think that is why I have trouble with women. I can't find one willing to put as much into a relationship as I am. I know I do do too much sometimes and often too early. Probably me and I do need to tone things down a little in many respects. Anyone care to share any advice about that?

Well, I better get busy. I work again tomorrow. Hope this weather clears but we do need the rain.

You all take care.
