This car has been around since the 70's.  The owner of the car is a tenant in my apartment block.  As you can see the car has seen better days, I guess you can say this old Volvo has been a road warrior.  The tenant's father gave him the car, and he just cant seem to part with it, he even gave the car a name.  He likes to call it "Lars".  For now Lars, sits around more, than goes anywhere.  I guess, his get  up and go has got up and gone.

Lately, I have been using online prompts to help me blog. Being without my muse Lefty, or inspiration, they are a great help. The two I have been using are "Plinky" and "Day Dreaming On Paper." Today's prompt is "List 10 things that people are always surprised to find out about you". Some people will not be surprised, the ones that have known me most of my life, and you know who you are. I guess, telling people all of these things is a little revealing, and some of them might even be considered secrets.

1. I am bipolar (and have been most of my life)

2. I am of Russian decent

3. I own a Mac & a Windows PC

4. I used to run a open mic night

5. I can cook (and I don't mean heating up frozen dinners)

6. I used to smoke

7. I have a cat named "Smokey" who owns me

8. I can fix most PC problems (just ask my family & friends)

9. I don't drink alcohol

10. I used to sing, play guitar and mandolin

Drunk guy takes a nap I have a neighbor named Simone Who isn’t very mentally grown When he drinks cheap beer His talk comes out the rear Most days he looks dead drunk And has the odor of a skunk He acts mad and crude Slithering in the halls; nude He keeps looking for a lay But it seems he has to pay
