Stiff And Sore

Well.....I woke up with a stiff and sore neck today. I felt it starting to come on slightly yesterday but today it got uncomfortable.
After a breakfast of skorpor, ost (crisp rolls and cheese) from IKEA and tea which is my latest breakfast obsession I decided that I was going to take it easy today. Meaning sleep and eat.



I am in bed now and for the first time ever I am trying a medicated patch that I slapped on the back of my neck. I have now reached fogbone status, are medicated patches going to be a weekly thing from now on? I am not sure how I like it, it's like weird burning sensation. I am also thinking about rereading this book by Lars Kepler called The Sandman . I got it about a month ago and was so looking forward to reading it because I had heard that it was very good and also scary but I was disappointed. It was good enough but not great. Meh......I might read it again and then pass it on. Who wants it? ;-)



But now I have to tell you about what happened earlier. So around 9 PM I hear a bunch of barking outside, I look out the window and see a loose dog running around. About 10-15 minutes later I hear barking again, so I look and it is the same dog. I get dressed and go outside and discover a light brown pittbull with a collar and a doggie shirt on. It ran towards me, stopped at a distance and just barked. I felt that he was scared, lost and needed help. But I did not know if he was friendly. So I got Chhaya's leash, filled up a bowl with her kibble and another with water and got in my car and slowly drove until I spotted him again. I put the bowl on the ground and called him over, he approached carefully and gobbled down all the kibble while I told him he was a good boy. Then another car pulled up and the driver, a girl asked if that was my dog and I said no and explained what was going on. We both got out of our cars and the dog was just wagging his tail, I attached the leash to his collar. The girl said she thought he lives in our gated community but not exactly sure where and texted another neighbor while I walked the dog to the bowl with water that he drank. The neighbor came outside and looked at the dog and decided to keep him until she/we can find the owner, hopefully tomorrow. I am glad I decided to get outside and check on that dog, had he ran outside the gates who knows where he would had been tonight. Maybe not alive now. He was scared. I can only imagine if Chhaya was lost somewhere without me, she would had been scared too and I would had been devastated not knowing if she was safe.

Good Continuation

Hello 2017 and New Year's Day!
I don't make New Year's Resolutions.....I recall some past ones were to drink more water and to go to one rave a month.
I attended a get together with friends last night. Had a nice time, even got a glass of pretty pink bubbly to make a toast with and today I have nothing in particular planned besides taking Chhaya out for a walk. I wonder if I can get a latte anywhere or are most places closed? Another thing I recall I did one New Year's Day after a night of dancing at Together As One in Los Angeles was to go to a Brookstone and relax in one of their massage chairs for a while.....
My best New Years Eves hands down so far have been dancing at some party/rave. Nothing like dancing in the New Year - feeling alive.
Well, good continuation my friends. Let's see what 2017 has in store. Already a tragedy in Istanbul. The situation in Europe and all over the World is sad. I will try to do my small part in 2017 to make a day or a moment better for somebody, human or animal.
I want to write a special thank you here to Diann that recently collected several hundred dollars (I think around $500) to give to Alaska's Extended Life Sanctuary (a no kill animal shelter) in Nikiski Alaska. She said that I started this and yes, a few years ago I initiated a collection at work (yes, at the strip club) that led to a few, we collected money for dogs and cats and women and children. These are the things that feel good inside my soul. Thank You Diann for doing this!





My song on every New Year's Day is U2's New Year's Day .

All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
I want to be with you, be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

I will be with you again
I will be with you again

Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered, black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says

Say it's true, it's true
We can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one

I, I will begin again
I, I will begin again

Oh, maybe the time is right
Oh, maybe tonight

I will be with you again
I will be with you again

And so we are told this is the Golden Age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you, be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

Happy New Year

Well, this is it....2016 is coming to and end and 2017 is about to begin. I hope you feel good about that. If not, it's OK.....in a few weeks, even a few days, everything will be back to normal again.
To all of you wherever you are.....I hope you are warm, safe and in good health and spirits.
Happy New Year, Gott Nytt Γ…r - I will see you in 2017.


Three Kids Mine

Here are my pictures from this months shoot with Cindy at Three Kids Mine in Henderson Nevada. This is where you can find an amazing work of art called Wheel of Misfortune painted by somebody called Aware. I love this location. I am glad we (me and Cindy) went out there and did the shoot. Thank You Cindy! ❀

Perfect Selfie

A few months ago I came across this ad while browsing through a magazine.



So for the meager cost of $47 (if paid in advance) or $67 (if paid at door) you can learn how to take the "perfect selfie" to best represent yourself on social media. And feel fabulous. Then there is some lame mention about inner and outer beauty connection, nutrition and bla bla bla. Really now?
Well, if you give me.....say $40 I will teach you how to take a perfect selfie. I can meet you at a local coffee shop and give you a lesson, my latte is on you. In fact I feel so generous and kind that I will teach you now, for free! Take camera, point at yourself and snap pic. TADAAAAA! Selfie! I take many pics of all kinds of stuff. I must never lose my phone because whomever finds it will discover a treasure picture wise. Quite a collection of pics in my phone of all kinds of interesting things.....I renamed my phone to "the selfie machine" a while back.
I wonder if anyone paid and attended this perfect selfie class? Seriously.....don't. What is this world coming to.....LOL? Oh and I might as well throw in a small lecture on skincare now. For free. Avoid smoking. Even secondhand smoke if possible. Unfortunately I have been unwillingly subjected to way too much secondhand smoke - gross. Avoid drinking too much and hard drugs. Or you will look like a wrinkle face in your mid 30's or earlier. Unless you don't care that is and if you don't care then hey - good for you. I have seen ladies in their mid 30's with more wrinkles on their face than my butthole has wrinkles (it must be their inner beauty shining through). But life will also age you because life eventually does. And tanning beds. I wish I would had never used a tanning bed. Not good for you. As far as nutrition goes I can't give any valuable lessons because I don't diet and I eat a lot of sugar, something that is supposedly not good for you.
I don't drink enough water either. Perhaps I should start......? I have a vision of me starting each day with a large glass of water with some lemon in it followed by 30 minutes of yoga. Yeah right......maybe one day. I have been so lazy lately with exercise and even washing my face.....whatever I'm just not motivated. And I like exercising and washing my face, I promise!
Well, here are some of my latest selfies from my selfie machine. I might as well throw in these 2016 selfies before the year is over. New ones next year.
No filter or blur tools here......if you see an "imperfection" then you can zoom in on it and inspect it even closer. At least I look this way in real life too. Do not fall for the mostly fake world of Instagram.
Tired, just woke up and cold early morning at work.
