off of AprilFoolsDay2021
Stim3Gone2021
and likely others...
Body
Original Text
Walked along the 4 Mile Run,
starting around where the safe and
grocery cart (Home something instead)
has been for a month or so now,
Trolls2015 bridge at Columbia
Pike now working on the bridge
near Arlington Mill Community Center,
it will be wider, on that side,
and cars somehow narrower
a dangerous high step off,
and passing by with 6' distancing
impossible, while working on
upgrades along Columbia Pike
and put a wider sidewalk,
a mess, like MixingBowl
East in the South where i
used to live, below in Mount Vernon,
(called Alexandria, but in FairFax County)
along Route 1
(not the nice by the River, that was
WhereThePaveMentEndsWorldChannelOrg2021
)
goes through road, bridge/ etc construction hell
and then told to move
(decade + wait for Section 8/
later called Housing Choice Voucher
only to be stolen by
AttemptedMurderByInspections2019 ),
i guess the poor just are around
for others convenience,
or something...
So along the stream, early am,
not very early, as was up doing
laundry, you see someone was sick
near me, and i had some
new Stim3Gone2021
clothes on, and that won't do,
perhaps looking a little white
man on safari or something
new thick warm tan vest,
grey sweats,
but the woman ahead o fme
in line, they were early
went light headed?
or something, she's sick,
people rush to her,
have a seat,
she gets passed,
no where to go really,
and pulls in behind me,
i leave some food for the people
behind me, she gets it, i guess,
and waits to talk to me
behind me, not knowing
until later then seems to follow
me, she is called off elsewhere
someone says her mom is sick,
unspecified, i guess, mental issues
it seems, and that from someone who
is known to have them (me)
confusion, something idk,
later guess Ramadan (Fasting)
and light headed getting up,
but all sorts of Panic and other things,
everything is PanDemic,
so they guess that,
i guess otherwise,
overweight, bad food for decades/
likely a lifetime, and whatever
other issues, not really my place
to say, just as it affects me,
nearby, i take off things,
shower, change my bedding
(about time anyways)
let sit (virus dies in 4 days?),
later wash everything
early am, Earth Day,
Vaccine 2 show, first day
eligible, got a quick early
afternoon appointment,
(never separated out Vaccine
from AprilFoolsDay2021
it's in there, like the old food ad...)
Everything is green now,
was brown the last trip
down/over, along the trail,
takes a long time, to walk
the 5,6-10k or whatever
by the time i go back,
explore, do errands along
the way, etc...
Had stopped by Wifi at the
Community Center took a long
time in the cold, it was 35-53F
day temp range day,
and i'm wearing shorts,
but the big fluffy new vest
washed, and tired from
stress of wondering if it's
going to be another
PotomacHeritageTrail2021
you see i'm waiting on parts
again, too... the day has
turned into a double, now
triple header/ 3 event/s things
to do in a day, where just one
(laundry, Vaccine, parts)
would wipe me out,
and since i have book due
soon, take that to the Shirlington
Library, now an express location
and drop off there, saves a trip
as likely down after with all
the activity stress, shot, etc...
See a few greening trees,
urban area cars, buses, roads,
stuff, get to the bridge,
take of water, stream,
the pretend nature in the
urban environment
where the criminals hide
to pounce on unsuspecting
likely white women,
while they are not dumb,
they know the dangers,
and liked having others around,
i'd scared off some,
other times the women protected
me, later underpass,
joggers talking to someone on the
other end of the phone and
comments about what they
see/ hear/ is happening around
them, talking to others/ likely
girlfriends, etc...
Chatting away, those walks
likely keep people alive,
cooling off so they don't kill
their husbands, kids, neighbors,
etc... I heard it on YouTube
or something, it must be true,
walking groups save lives...
Further DownStream,
do i bother
documenting
where its so narrow that
only one person can pass,
and had problems in snow
going to food,
PandemicWareHouse2020
pulling
AldiGardenLineGardenUtilityCart2019
through freezing snow, wheel
not turning, worried about rust,
but did it anyways...
So see some ducks/ geese?
and take a few photos,
My EarthDay is complete,
keep on going,
Grocery store stop,
new one to me, known
it was there but on planning
knowing where bathrooms
are along a long stretch
bail out points,
i'm early
ive been past where the dog
attack was, another/same?
woman, different dog
no vest, they are on the other
side, not the dog towards me,
but worried a bout fall into the
stream, but dog has nature
to sniff and pee / poop in,
and a well worn path there too,
i guess since the Animal Shelter
is nearby, they maybe are out for
their fostering/ visiting time,
nice to get out of puppy/ pet/stray
jail, might get clemency/ sprung,
freed from a life/death sentence
this one a fluffy
Ive since bought a FRK9
supported a Fire/Rescue/
First Responder
K9 aka Canine
memorializing
someone i've never heard of,
but it's a golden, named after
a guy i find difficult tolearn about,
but he died, and was Fire and Rescue
so the dog Jim? Kovacs?
is named after him,
and the picture, looks Golden,
i had two growing up,
first was wide, female light
stocky,turned out hip displaysia (sp?)
grows to fast, misalighed/ problems,
a genetic defect, Goldens are/were
so popular they tried breeding
those things out, but not all worked,
don't know for a while, (and likely
genetic engineering options now)
we moved to the city, for my parents
job they summarily put her to a farm,
we went to visit, literally a farm,
not to pasture/ (read dead)
but later likely lost her
(dog years and time goes on)...
the second, a replacement
more Irish setter dark, from the
Mid West, pet quality a breeder
had a big litter flown in to airport
first thing i saw was big paws,
little puppy likely scared,
cold, or knowing Goldens
puppies/ spoiled rotten along the way,
but mine, finally got a dog again,
and barricading in the kitchen,
usually failed, things to clean up,
crating seemed mean,
some control in an uncontrollable
situation, big city, no friends to speak
of, locked in as a latch key kid,
but out to find / get the dog,
usually ran away, i would have
had i thought of it, known how,
but the dog had sense to,
i didn't...
Fast forward through college,
dog stayed with dad,
he had girlfriend/ fiance,
married while i moved to school,
civil ceremony, not invited,
just them, StepMonster,
etc, lost her first husband,
and fears, later, etc..
But she had cookies, snacks,
something different,
and kept him off my back,
literally picking on me,
that i guess is a family trait
for all his clinical like personality
CourtShip of Eddie's Father
(black and white?
TV show of the time)
single father, raising kid,
it was a trend,
anyways, lonely boring,
yelled at, and other problems,
most wouldn't know came home
and drank, much less than a lot,
i guess, but just me and him,
by t he time i got the nerve to ask
for something (like need money
for school, had allowance,
other life demands)
it was late,
and got yelled at, he had
been drinking for a while by then,
and the bones in fish,
there are no bones in the fish,
then find a bone,
like Pink Floyd Video eat it,
i didn't eat it, but critical,
he tried his best, but certain
fish have bones and some eat
around i don't like food biting me back,
salmon abou the only one
that doesn't / big enough to find easily,
so lox, he's likely got developing heart
problems, and needs to do low fat,
non red meat, we had been switched
to Low Fat/ Non Fat milk,
other stuff tasted like cream,
after a while, etc...
I'd wandered all over the woods
looking for the dog, never really
new how he got out, nor how
found, and angry at having to look,
and the cycle continues,
but it was out, and about
not stuck in/ now called
lock down...
So been in nature,
did part of a grade for self
defined project, do number of
projects for grade level,
so made one on spring of cleaning
in the park, she/ they upped it to
a bag per grade, so 3 bags?
trash bags collecting trash
in the park, took a while,
i was driving dad's / the family
car and Audi, nice but the kids
thought i was mine, instead,
a nice car for a kid, but it was the
family and only car, a BMW
on the other side, mom had,
old model 2002, never did
get to d rive that, she sold it
for my sibling to go to school/
college... learned on a Ford
Fiesta on a sandy driveway,
how to shift gears, down to the
water front / dock, mom stayed
house sat, were we sailed
had boats with a club,
i think sibling had left already
for college, so my junior/
senior year, turns out there
was a guy charged with
child molestation/ abuse,
liked boys or something,
but never bothered me,
there was a room never to go
in, and be careful of him,
etc... Munster family or somesuch,
not talked about but i guess
why we were there,
some deal to have others around,
not left along, and monitored or
something... idk too young
to know and now not anyone
alive to tell me... been decades
(3-5x+ now)... Sibling a little
older may know...
Adult stuff, anyways, nature,
sailing and out looking for the dog,
who got a way a lot, i could/
probably should have run/
biked with him, but got off
and left him at home,
walking and cleaning up,
flea bath, feeding, brush,
trim nails, etc...
our first was field trained,
i was a kid and some TV show
with kids and dog(s) and
was on it, but didn't like it,
privacy was a problem even
back the, bright red hair,
dog matches my hair,
same weight , height,
hair color, we were a pair,
and when lost, nuclear,
no friends, etc,
likely signs of autism/
dyslexia / dysgraphia,
symptoms of the family
disease of alcholism,
looking Irish (assume whiskey
rural moonshine),
but not, neighboring Welsh,
Appalachia, roots, Country
boy, hick,
CharlieDanielsPassed2020
So rural beginnings,
more visiting my grand parents
both of which were what i'd learned
later to call townies,
HippieClownCamp2011
AVeteransSonLaughsAndSpitsAtMe2011
was rural, this was in town,
suburbs of (now very small) town,
so civilized and thought better,
not farming but not big city/ towns
Adventures visiting, were
hit a deer along a deserted stretch,
going up river to grand parents,
usually bored, tried sleeping,
deer incident hit, while i was down,
worried, you try to find the deer
if hit by a car, in a section where
deer out number people,
and late/ odd traveling,
grand parent(s) were Volunteer Fire
and Rescue (includes ambulance)
that was where the pig/ roast
cookout big event was,
and they played with bonfires,
and had lots/ good food,
not that grandma's wasn't
just eating out while rural,
grandma's pies,
blueberry in particular,
my fav, rhubarb, stringie stuff,
but sweet and different,
we had with a sharp new york
cheddar, i'd eat and sleep,
and basically be spoiled rotten,
she doted on us, and we
cared, but i had an objective
teen age distance, she complained
getting hit with the dogs tail
was like a rope, excited dog,
brought where ever we went,
no sitters for us,
and farm dogs were out in the shed,
hunting, and slept out,
Springer/Britney? Spaniels,
bigger, and probably wondered why
the Golden got inside,
no Fair, etc...
My aunts dog, don't remember what
now, sibling might, find old photos,
were were dog people, while
we probably had a cat,
died before we moved,
along the time we had
a foster? i don't remember
much of that time, too young,
couldn't see, hadn't gotten
glasses yet, imagine not being
able to see, and they wonder
why you can't don't read...
Much less what are those
wires between the poles with
no branches/ leaves...
An odd world without some
complete info, for some...
Anyways, Grocery store,
bathroom, plan b, alternative,
early, but was longer at
the end then i remember
last time, time slips away,
tour Harris Teeter, not this time
but Lidl2021
post
MoreOrLessLidl2021
LidlSilverCrestBreadMachine2021

broken top PeaNut Butter,
Cereal, had milk us up with that
(start ToDay)
jam top popped, reviewed on
gMaps2019
two pies half PumpKin
whole BlueBerry no Sugar added
(rather sweet to start
balancing fruit tartness?)
scale small, use weight from packaging,
plans for pizza, slice likely
and buy from the bike tool/supplies
vending machine
so a lot to do,
all in one day,
turns out EarthDay...
HomeLess guy there ignored
drunk smoking, baggy,
he has to step up his game,
if not getting anything from a bunny...
Not drink and smoke would be a start...
Lidl store woman mopping up
gets in my self service register
hitting buttons i'm figuring out
UPC code on bag $0.10
but how to scan, where,
on label, or type in,
can't see a damn thing
fogged up with mask
and glasses,
she reaches in at the end,
and totals,
sign says no Cash nor EBT,
and think i need to get a photo of that
i know about the Cash part,
learned that efore,
but not EBT is a problem for poor
and other, not me, don't have
Electronic Benefits Transfer
or whatever Food Stamps are
now electronically,
had it originally but wit h disability
too much for that, just a little over...
subtract out the medical, say
dental i need but didn't get,
filling/ replacing the
MindingAndMiningYourTeeth2012
FreeDentalDays2017
and missing
ValentinesDayWeekend2011
recently missed
HeartScreeningMinuteClinicsVoucher2019

or i just miss it?
LDLs HDLs etc?
So buy some cheese,
this time Swiss not getting
gimmicky Monterey Jack
as not couponed remotely
needed liquid, cheap LemonAde,
and skipped donuts/ pastry
as got pies, and breakfast bar,
cereal, etc last stop at Giant,
so get going,
think Grace? said hi,
or something im busy
she's rushing?
I got a $10 eCoupon for the
Trekking Poles
and some feedback
how was your call with Grace?
when i'm not a call , it was email,
and never got what i wanted
but they were nice enough
after asking for the code/ product
IAN number, and never got the
missing parts, what i really wanted,
quick release like lever
nut & odd bolt or vice versa
wide nut long bolt
to use the second
and the plastic fold over frubber
tip for the second pole,
i had dropped sugar fell
and nasty (obese black)
cashier that time
so maybe she took it off,
or got knocked carrying around?
but sabotage not excluded
from possiblity, imnsho...
the hatred oozing out of some people
towards me,
Grace may be nice, corporate
is up there up stairs, i'm theremaybe
late arrival, they tun to meetings
or late coming in,
i'm busy she probably recognizes
me i've never seen here,
but have the backpacks,
not shown in MoreOrLessLidl2021
Lidl2021
LidlSilverCrestBreadMachine2021
series, really
Stim3Gone2021
bought a lot of camping gear,
a $40 hikers backpack each trip,
two the first time,
one each next trip(s)
and a second self inflating sleep mat,
think ThermaRest but not name brand,
similar functions, not tried,
nasty (Large LatinX)
cashier says ought to have
popped/ punctured it, etc...
and these are the types of things
i go to nature to get away from,
crowds is obvious even before
PandemicWareHouse2020
ConVid19ContinuesIn2020
AbusesInTheNameOfViralEmergency2020
etc...
A shopping cart is in the water/
stream down by the water treatment
and power transformers
(plant by water)
+ some artsy thing(s)
get a photo or two
of that,
(lunch vaccinate, add links
after created?)
and back to city life,
bail on the
way back
I've failed to live up to
walking it all,
and short at that
nothing on parts,
slow and late...
and not even including
the third wheel,
not the warehouses/ sites
bought from surprise,
no fun for me...
