08:15 AM: I’m up.
09:30 AM: My weight remains unchanged from yesterday. It’s still 178.0 pounds. Yep. It’s going to be another 800 calorie target day
10:30 AM: Created the 2010-01-18-09-58 episode in my audio journal on the Victor Reader Stream, which I’ll transcribe to the blog here sometime in the future, though not immediately. I like to let these entries “cool off” a little, before posting them. This gives me time to mull over them and improve how I say what I said in them, and to find and eliminate any errors. In this episode I further discuss reducing my anxiety of approaching women I deem beautiful.
12:35 PM: Posted the Going With The Flow At Work piece.
12:50 PM: Posted the No More Great Raises piece.
01:10 PM: Added the Today’s Business: 2002-01-03 piece.
03:00 PM: Talked with [Emmy].
04:15 PM: Signed up to transfer our land line phone services from Verizon over to our cable provider. This should save us between $50 and $60 per month. I’m a little worried that the quality of the new lines won’t be as high as I’ve been used to with Verizon. But I attempted to negotiate a lower rate with Verizon, for both Mom’s and my phone lines. They refused. So I decided to give our cable provider a try. If the new lines have substandard sound, I’ll switch back.
05:30 PM: Watched the following episodes of CBS’s 60 Minutes from the DVR:
- 2009-12-20.
- 2009-12-27 (partial, because the show was delayed by CBS football coverage — what a pain!).
- 2010-01-03 (partial, again due to football coverage; the DVR’s schedule is usually not updated to reflect late-running football games).
- 2010-01-17.
06:15 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless from the DVR.
06:30 PM: Worked the Christmas Lighting, 2009 project. Put away some of the indoor decorations today.
06:55 PM: Skipped today’s episode of Dr. Phil, which focused on the Dr. Phil family; not interested in that thread.
07:05 PM: Applied all pending plugin version upgrades to all three of my blogs:
09:00 PM: Created audio journal episode: AJE-2010-01-18-20-53 on the Victor Reader Stream. Here I discuss initiating the second contact in my finding-love-in-my-past campaign.
10:20 PM: Talked with [Emmy] for the last hour plus.
11:00 PM: Browsed around a little on facebook. Interesting. I see why so many people like it. But I’ll post more about it once I get some real experience.
11:10 PM: Posted the daily list of added / revised documents in this blog, here.
11:15 PM: I’m going to bed now. Take care, and will catch you right back here tomorrow morning. Good night.
