Be careful what you wish for

With Mark and Jasmine in Oregon with Shelly to witness the graduation I figured I didn't have to go out to breakfast this morning as I usually do on Sunday. Instead I decided I would cook my breakfast a treat that I haven't done for some time . I really do like cooking and I miss not cooking for people. I had some sausages that saved for some time and that chopped them up last night So I pulled those out and fried the muffler eggs bring onion and I fried them up and had them with English muffins I purchased yesterday perio. I was even more surprised to find out how quickly I was able to get dressed and at least presentable to the point that I could go across the street and get some coffee . when I finally got into the coffee shop I was pleased to see my neighbor Jimmy sitting with somebody else and for the first time they invited me to sit with them. I would not say I was a static but it was good to have someone to sit with . I felt like one of the cool kids . I must say it was an interesting experience and when I didn't think through and all this time wishing I could say that the table someone . There wasn't long after I was introduced to the other individual that somebody else sat down as well . these real guys about my age- Jimmy is a bit older and the other people are a bit younger but they're all but we're all about the same . So we ran along for a while eventually things of course turned to things going on in the national scene and right now the big deal is the minority groups striking in the California and the East Coast areas particularly those against the ice people. And my horror of course all three of these individuals our Republicans . I don't know why I didn't think this through and all of the sudden I found myself getting very quiet and kind of wishing us by myself once again . I tried to steer the conversation away from these national events and of course the whole trump issues but to no avail . I ended up excusing myself gathering up my meager belongings and heading home. Fortunately I sincerely doubt I will be running into these guys again anytime soon .rarely do I even go to the coffee shop on Sunday mornings. So so I don't go I don't show and everything will be just fine .Jimmy I can handle 1 to 1 fairly easily .the old guys practically death our conversations are pretty one-sided anyway .Maybe I just need to realize Coffee is better served as one at the coffee shop across the street period


I spent the rest of the day on the patio reading my Stephen King that was great sport .It was hot however and I eventually had to go back into the apartment to get some reprieve from the direct sunshine and the heat .later on I went out and did some more reading in the shade of the tree outside by apartment and things were just fine
