"Follow your feelings Luke" Obi Wan

Yesterday I had a couple of feelings I followed, Jedi style. Though Mr Lucas is now making me want to become a Trekkie rather than a Jedi... Heck, the guy even screwed up Indiana Jones!! And that should have been impossible. Anyways......

Yesterday I had ideas. And I acted on them! No matter what your economic status, where you live or really anything else, 99% of the people in the world have to answer this question every dang day of their life, "What's for dinner?"

My idea? Crab, baked yam fries and salad. Oh, and let's not forget the mango lemonade either! Almost 3 lbs of crab was boiled. I used salt, white pepper, garlic, butter, tobasco and some other spices in the water. The yams were just cut up into strips, sprayed with olive oil and sea salted then baked. Salad was just mixed greens outta bag.

Now I could have taken this impulse and thought it was too expensive, or too much work or whatever excuse. But I didn't! And it paid off in a delicious dinner! You really shoulda been there.

Secondly I've become mildly addicted to playing Moto Forza 3 on the xbox. And what does any serious racer have to have? That's right, a steering wheel. I get online and read some reviews... WTH? $500!! You're kidding me right? Ohhhhhh, you can get one for just $250? Gee, what a bargain.

Follow your feelings Luke. Err, Rowdy.
Sorry Obi, I didn't.

I bought a $160 wheel I thought would be 'good enough'. Well, after a day of furious play I'm not sure if it is.... Dang it! As I hate nothing more than returning things. Especially as the box, packing material and receipt are spread through 3 different locations. And I bought it as Best Buy, but they don't have the higher end one I should have bought. Please don't stick me with store credit......

It's not like I didn't have the money. I could have even gotten the $500 one if I really really wanted. (I'll use it during the recovery from surgery. Yeah yeah. It will be durable medical equipment. Claim it on my taxes... hahaha) I knew there was something more like I wanted, but I chickened out and cheaped out.

And now I'm paying for it in quit races, excuses and lower lap times. ARGH! Keep pulling the ball away Lucy, I'll keep running at it and trying to kick it. Oh wait, I need a Star Wars reference.... Forget it, just look at these classic memes.
