Log
05:20 AM: I’m up. My weight did not change from yesterday. It’s still 173.5 Lbs. See here for a summary of the progress on this goal so far in 2010.
05:25 AM: Read more of the Classics For Pleasure book overnight.
07:15 AM: Spent the past hour writing out bills (9 of them). Then, went back to bed for a bit.
08:30 AM: I’m back up again, working on yearly accounting chores for Mom’s bills.
09:15 AM: Sister Jojo just arrived. We’re heading out shopping this morning.
02:00 PM: We’re back from the shopping trip. Details provided here.
04:50 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR, as well as the 2010-03-10 episode of Dr. Phi, titled What’s Wrong With People?
04:52 PM: Nice and warm this afternoon outside; the temperature is 81.3 degrees on our east porch at the moment, which makes this the warmest day of the year here so far. Sweet.
05:50 PM: Watched the 2010-03-11 episode of Dr. Phil on the DVR.
07:30 PM: iPodded at the pavilion for an hour and a half. While the WiFi reception is much improved, the stations still drop now and then. Some of this is not due to the WiFi, and I suspect that when the Internet gets congested (such as in the evening around here), more drops appear. However, I’m still seeing more of these at the pavilion than here at the house. So another attempt to further improve reception out in the yard is needed. Details later.
07:45 PM: Upgraded all my blogs to the Google XML Site Maps Generator Plugin, version 3.2.3. I’ve been very pleased with the site map files this software automatically generates and keeps updated as I add posts to the blogs. Kudos to the developers. You can see the site map for this blog, that was produced with this plugin here.
09:45 PM: Chatted with [Emmy] on the phone. Boy, it’s hot up here tonight; a sign of a hot day earlier.
10:15 PM: Got a late bath. I’m still tired though. Guess I didn’t get enough zzzzzs last night.
11:15 PM: Removed extra hyphen character from the home page and archive page title tags, for all blogs.
11:50 PM: Going to bed. So take care and have a great evening. I’ll see you again tomorrow.
