08:55 AM: I’m up.
10:00 AM: Mom reports that calls on her phone sound garbled. So I investigated and determined that not all calls sound bad; only ones to certain numbers. Sometimes, even the ones that sounded lousy the first time, sounded very clear when placed a few minutes later. This suggests that at least, we have nothing wrong with our wiring or our cable phone modem, and this is further corroborated by the fact that I observed the same behavior on my line. This seems to be a network issue, and not anything specific to our installation. So, all we can do I suspect, is to let the cable company know about this, and hopefully they’ll track it down and resolve it.
12:00 PM: So far, I’ve written 1000 of the 2500 words today that I’ve mandated myself to put down.
01:00 PM: [Jack] returned my birthday call to him from yesterday. All is well in Philadelphia. He says that they moved the location of the foot party. Though for a time, he was the only male there, he very much enjoyed himself. Now, they host them in the far north east.
02:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
05:35 PM: Posted the Judy’s Silent Rejection piece to the Tom’s Love Quest blog. Thus, all data have been transcribed from audio journal episode AJE-2010-05-31-21-52.
08:00 PM: Napped a bit while listening to CNN, and considered what to write next. I’ll probably dig into the audio journals again, as they’re a nearly endless source of inspiration and content.
10:10 PM: Talked with [Emmy] on the phone.
11:50 PM: Watched tonight’s episode of NBC’s Nightly News on the DVR as well as the monologue section of the David Letterman show.
12:40 AM: Watched the 2010-06-07 episode of the Dr. Phil show on the DVR; that exposed the difficult problem of childhood violence.
01:45 AM: Blogged and Facebooked a bit, and now, I’m going to bed for a bit. So I’ll see you again tomorrow. Good night.
