Free lunch good times

Even with Big Bright Beautiful sunshine it was still cold almost unbearable cold for me- - I know that's a little dramatic but it's pretty damn chilly that's for sure. I only went out once today which was to take some stuff to the dumpster and it's a pretty short Dash from the back door of the building to the dumpsters and back but it was cold enough to make me want to stay in for the rest of the day. Luckily my friend Dwayne came over for lunch. Remember, we are supposed to go out to lunch yesterday but something came up I know you rescheduled. Asian food, I dare not call it Chinese food anymore cuz it's not the Chinese food I remember but this certainly Asian lots of vegetables beef cut a certain way certainly Asian which I totally enjoyed Dwayne paid for it as usual. I'm such a chump I let my friends buy my lunch all the time. I got tired of them saying no every time I try to make a feeble attempt to pay for the meal. That's okay these guys make more money than I do so I'm not too bummed out and again please more for the time spent visiting as opposed to eating. I've known Dwayne for about 30 years he was working with Utah State Office of Rehabilitation and had to come to our office Periodically. I first saw my job with this guy as a way to infiltrate the Mothership of rehab. There was a long battle that went on for a great while at the beginning of the independent living movement as a IL centers established themselves. There is this struggle for control over there existence. Of course rehab wanted to do as much control as possible and the independent living folks wanted to control their own lives. I don't know anymore who was right or wrong. I really like the adversarial role as far as fighting the establishment. And we are all in it for that. Over the years however we've learned to live with ourselves I think and even though I saw Dwayne as a plant from the Mothership I grew to like the guy then after years and years of work and retirement we still hang out. He looks after me I appreciate that he's not overbearing or controlling or anything like that but I think he genuinely likes to hang out with me I don't like hanging out with him he makes me look good. He ended up going to be in a bigger dog in the state government after he finished with rehab which was I thought cool. The best of all he picks up the bill…
