08:45 AM: I’m up.
11:00 AM: Facebooked a while this morning. Friend count is now 163.
02:00 PM: Brainstormed on the sorts of AdWords ads I should create to advertise the Tom’s Love Quest blog. I’ll make actual ads from some of those this week.
02:30 PM: Created audio journal episode AJE-2010-06-20-11-38, where I captured my current thoughts on advertising the blogs on social media hot spots.
03:00 PM: Attempted to power wash the pavilion patio and swings. However, the power washer itself would not power up; no hum or anything. I verified that the outlets are live down there. So it looks like this thing has finally bit the dust. Next trip to Altoona, and I think I’ll purchase a gas-powered power washer this time. These offer more pressure than the electric one I’ve had since 2004, and there’s less danger of electric shock, as the gas units do not plug into AC power.
04:30 PM: Continued reading the Happiness Now book. Finished chapter six this afternoon at the pavilion.
05:00 PM: Nap time.
06:00 PM: I’m back up again.
08:00 PM: Watched the 2010-06-13 and the 2010-06-20 (today’s) episodes of NBC’s Meet The Press news show on the DVR.
09:40 PM: Talked with [Emmy] on the phone. In a week, she’ll be here again, and we were just planning her stay. We’ll hit the Bellwood pool a few days, visit my sisters, and take a hike or two.
09:50 PM: Upgraded the Tom’s Views blog from WordPress 2.9.2 to WordPress 3.0 and played with the site for a few minutes. So far, no problems found; everything seems to work correctly.
10:53 PM: Watched today’s episode of CBS’s Face the Nation news show on the DVR. Skipped tonight’s episode of CBS’s 60 Minutes because it appeared to be a rerun. Now, we’re definitely into the rerun season.
01:15 AM: Facebooked a while and iPodded too. But I’m off to bed now. So have a stupendous night, and I’ll see you right back here later on.
