Log
08:30 AM: 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.
08:35 AM: Continued the book: The Adventures of Pinocchio overnight.
08:50 AM: For the first time since November, 2009, we experienced one of those short-duration power outages, that I’m tracking in the Ongoing Power Outages post. I suppose that now that the weather’s getting warmer, there are more critters out there to run around on the power lines. I’ll call the power company again if this become frequent again.
10:50 AM: [Emmy] called. Her Comcast phone is acting up again. We experienced lots of dropouts and minute-long periods of silence; where I could not hear her, and she could not hear me. I’m starting to think we made a bad choice switching her from Verizon to Comcast phone service. But we’ll ride it out a little longer and see if they can get it right.
11:05 AM: Updated my front page; added a link to my facebook profile. You can see the page here.
01:00 PM: Revised more posts on the Tom’s Views blog.
01:45 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
04:30 PM: Heading out on today’s shopping trip.
05:45 PM: We’re back from the shopping trip.
07:30 PM: Watched and skimmed episodes of NBC’s Nightly News from 2010-02-21 through 2010-03-08 on the DVR.
08:15 PM: Listened to a bit of the Penguins first playoff hockey game with [Emmy], over the phone, on her IRIS Internet radio.
09:10 PM: A customer just dropped off her computer for service. I’ll document that effort here.
10:15 PM: Now I’m going to read a bit more of the Adventures of Pinocchio book, and then hit the sheets. So good night then, and I’ll peck some more tomorrow. Good night.
