Log
06:30 AM: I’m up.
06:32 AM: Weight’s up another pound from yesterday. It’s now 176.5 Lbs. See here for a summary of the progress on this goal so far in 2010.
07:10 AM: Posted the Bandwidth Usage: 2010-04 piece.
07:15 AM: Revised and added to the No More Foot Parties For A While post on the Tom’s Love Quest blog.
07:20 AM: Finished the Grapes of Wrath book overnight.
07:40 AM: Invited several people from Altoona and Pittsburgh to be friends on Facebook. My friend count is now 68.
08:40 AM: Posted the Book: The Grapes Of Wrath piece.
09:05 AM: Now that I’ve finished reading The Grapes of Wrath, I’m returning to the Happiness Now book.
02:55 PM: Created audio journal episode: AJE-2010-05-03-13-59.
03:00 PM: Just got off of the phone with my philosopher / doctor friend for a hour. Another enlightening conversation, though we probably won’t talk again until this fall.
03:30 PM: Nephew Garrett brought back my spool of CAT 5 Ethenet cable. It’s good to have it back; it’s been a while.
05:00 PM: Watched the 2010-05-02 episode of NBC’s Nightly News and today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
09:00 PM: Watched today’s episodes of Dr. Phil and NBC’s Nightly News. Normally, I would not watch the Dr. Phil Family, which they had on today. But one of them was trying to dodge a lie detector test and I wanted to see how that all turned out. He avoided taking the test with all sorts of excuses. But in the end, his very avoidance convinced most folks that he was guilty of abusing his daughter.
10:40 PM: Just got off the phone with [Emmy], and I’m wondering which book I’ll read tonight now that I’ve finished The Grapes Of Wrath. The Happiness Now book requires taking notes, because it’s somewhat technical and very dense. Stories, rather than self-help, work best for me in bed, cause I don’t have to worry so much about missing important details. I just let the story flow while drifting off to sleep. Then, the next day, I figure out where I lost consciousness, and resume listening from that point.
10:45 PM: I revised lots of posts on this blog throughout today, adding properly formatted title tags and signature links.
11:35 PM: Posted the piece called: A Troll.
11:40 PM: Bed. Good night, and I’ll post again tomorrow. Take care.
