Wow, this past week really flew by. I can’t believe I haven’t written a post since last Monday. Well I’ve been keeping pretty busy, and the time just keeps moving. A few points of conversation today.
Flying Lessons:o
First off, I haven’t had a flying lesson since my first last Monday. I had one scheduled for yesterday (Saturday) however, with the terrible Spring weather of Cincinnati, it was canceled. My ratio of completed to canceled lessons isn’t so great, I’m right now 1 to 3. It’s alright now though. I’ve had my first experience, and I know that I love it, so it will just be an enjoyable hobby from here n out.
Homeless Herbert:
So I’ve been going back and forth about Homeless Herbert. If you read a number of posts ago, Herbert is the guy that I take out to lunch after church on Sundays. However, the thoughts that are with me are, am I giving this man an easy way out? He seems of sound mind, and I have to wonder, why is he homeless? Is he being helped out enough that he doesn’t have to do anything productive with his life? I don’t want to be a prop in his master plan to do nothing, but I also want to be able to help someone out who hasn’t been as fortunate as I have been. Any thoughts? Another part that plagues my thoughts are of what he gets when we go to lunch. He doesn’t pick the cheap fast food places, he decides on nice sub places like Penn Station, where the prices are rather high for the amount of food you get.
This has been our Sunday Lunches:
Week 1: Jersey Mike’s with one Giant sub with chips and drink totaling 10 dollars
Week 2: Penn Station with one large sub and one small sub with chips and drink totaling just under 20 dollars, and a burrito from Chipotle with a grand total of 25 dollars
Week 3: Penn Station with one large sub and one small sub with chips and drink, he asked for Chipotle but I requested we only eat the one place… he obliged. Total of just under 20 dollars
Week 4: Easter Sunday, I was home for the weekend and wasn’t around to take him out
Week 5: Today, we went to Jersey Mike’s and he asked for two sandwiches, I requested he only order one, and so he got the Giant sub with chips and drink totaling 10 dollars.
Is he taking advantage of me? When he greets me while walking into church, he now says, see you after church? He expects it.
Google Mail/Applications:
I was going to talk a bit about my new found favorite web applications with Google, however, this post got rather lengthy rather quickly. So I’ll save this for a soon to be post
Better weather is on the way. I’m flying on Tuesday and Friday after work this week. I can’t wait, I’ve been doing my reading and homework, I’m all good to go. Later!
