Hello. Funny how that happens every week!  ;)

The fans weren't on in church this morning. Yipes.

On the positive side, we got a new deacon. He was just ordained yesterday. Everyone applauded him.

I got some good audiobooks from the library. I've been listening to a lot of those lately. Still haven't played Storm Rise on the X Box 360. Should be a good afternoon.

That's it for now. See you later. Thanks.  :)

Hi. It's October already. The weather has just started to cool off here. I don't have a costume for Halloween. My dog does, though-- it's a dragon with purple spots.  :)

I rented some movies, and most of them weren't any good, unfortunately. On two of them, the video store guy forgot to remove the stupid clips that keep the cases shut.  :(

I rented a new game from Game Fly, "Stormrise" or something. I don't know what it's like.

Got a little reading done today. I've also been listening to my audiobooks.

That's it for now. See you soon. Thanks.  :)

Hello. Today's the 21st of September. They've started showing English Premier League games on two channels now (where I live), so I got to spend most of the morning in a pleasant fog. The local library doesn't open on Mondays, so I've had to go online and check their audiobook collection-- and wouldn't you know it, most of that is checked out too.

I had to uninstall some programs today that were just giving me too much grief. I hope it will save some memory. Lately, I've tried to erase a number of things, but no matter what I do, the amount of free gigabytes never seems to increase. Maybe I need to run the defragmenter later on.

I got a fairly decent soccer video game. Also rented a couple of other things. Think I'll play some before I leave. See you later. Thanks.  :)

Hello. I have a test tomorrow, for a possible job with a Hillsborough County government office, so I've taken the day off. It'll be nice to just come home and sleep off the tension.

It's very hot here. I can't wait for fall to arrive. There are lots of games to watch, so I can stay inside and enjoy the air conditioning.  :)

I can't wait for hockey season to get going. I think it starts next month. There's a site where you can download games from youth hockey leagues, and I may just do that.  :)

Today I started listening to an audiobook copy of "Honor Bound" by W.E.B. Griffin. It's pretty good.

That's all for now. See you later. Thanks.  :)

Happy Labor Day to everyone who is celebrating.  :)

Hello. It's an odd day here. We got the Tennis Channel HD, which is great! I had some spicy potato chips, and I want to drink something, but I can't because I would also like to go to sleep.

I did a little straightening up at home. I lost my bill from the dentist, so I called the office-- and it turned out the total was a lot more than I thought it would be. Yipes. Well, I paid it, no reason to put it off.

Not feeling that well today. I'll try to get some reading done before I turn in. See you later. Thanks.  :)

Hi. It's a sunny day here, and I'm unwinding after a long week. I work third shift, so I just finished this morning, not yesterday like most people. I'm trying to stay up for a while and watch TV. It's going well-- I'm watching soccer.

I got the new Pat Conroy book! I love him, I've read everything he ever wrote. I can't wait to get started. I also got a mystery called "The Unscratchables"! It stars a cat and a dog! Can you get better than that?  :)

I forgot to get a DVD I wanted. I'll have to order it. I also need to remember to get a new little radio. I get bored during the long shifts at work, and it really helps to kill time if I have a bunch of stations so I can flip between different shows. Somehow, it helps me feel like I haven't lost contact with the world if I have "live" radio on.

I'm going to enjoy my new fudge Snickers bar. I love candy. :) They just came out with a limited edition fudge-flavor Snickers, so I'm anxious to see what it's like. Probably nummy.  :)

See you later. Thanks.   :)

Hello. I finally finished a new episode of my podcast, two months or so after I started working on it. I'm surprised the audio came out pretty well.

I managed to do my assigned use of Listerine today, which is incredible. I hate it. I don't know what they put in that stuff, but it tastes awful. I hope they let me switch to another brand when I go for my next exam.

It's funny, but I can't get the closed captions to work on the Funimation channel. I don't know why, since it works for almost every other station. I've tried all the buttons on two remotes, and nothing makes the titles come up. Oh, well. I really like subtitles. They help me when the show is out of control and hard to understand... which is the case for most of the shows on Funimation.  :)

I might get a snack. See you later. Thanks.  :)
