Log
09:15 AM: I’m up.
11: 20 AM: Created audio journal episode: AJE-2010-01-23-10-49 on the Victor Reader Stream, which is a continuation of last night’s discussion of the rational sides of fear. I can’t wait to start writing about this more in the blogs.
02:00 PM: Received mail:
- Yellowbook telephone directory (1)
- The 2010-02 edition of Promo Only’s Urban Radio series.
- Mom’s 2009 W2 for her pension.
- The 2010-01 & 2010-02 edition of Analog Science Fiction magazine.
03:00 PM: Worked the Christmas Lighting, 2009 project. All remaining outdoor Christmas lights have been taken down now. The strings from the west fence need repair yet. But I’ll work that, piecemeal, throughout the year.
03:55 PM: Created audio journal episode: AJE-2010-01-23-15-32 on the Victor Reader Stream, where I speculated on how I might have acquired this fear of reaching out to beautiful women. One time, as a ten-year-old boy, a female babysitter admonished me for singing that chick-a-boom song (by Daddy Dewdrop) to her. She didn’t take this very well and in retrospect, I’d say that she reacted to my musical overture way more negatively than the situation called for. Nonetheless I was hurt, and suspect this to be one of many unpleasant lessons through the 1970s, where I learned not to be so forthcoming to women about my interest in them; in fact, to actually fear it.
04:00 PM: Now, it’s nap time.
06:55 PM: I’m back up again.
09:00 PM: Worked the Christmas Lighting, 2009 project. Replaced lots of bubs on the strings I removed from the west fence.
09:20 PM: Took the weekly system backups.
12:00 AM: Talked with [Emmy].
01:15 AM: Browsed on eBay, looking at spare WiFi routers and access points.
01:35 AM: Heading for bed now. So enjoy your night and I’ll catch you later on, right back here. Take care.
