09:15 AM: I’m up.
10:00 AM: Added 200 words more content to the How To Attract Women piece in the Tom’s Love Quest blog.
10:15 AM: Worked the Laptop Shuts Off: 2010-07-15 project.
11:00 AM: Finished adding all music to my library from Promo Only’s Country Radio series (up through the August, 2010 issue).
12:15 PM: Listened to a recent interview of Susan Jacks, where she discusses her years with the Poppy Family and tells some of the stories behind their (and her) most popular hits. Currently, you can access this interview on the Ronnie Remembers radio show web site. Susan also mentions the show on her site as well.
03:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
05:00 PM: Heated up the leftover pork roast for dinner that I made this past Thursday. While its flavor did indeed degrade somewhat from the initial serving, it was still plenty good enough to satiate my appetite. [Emmy] reports that she enjoyed this roast more than those ones we’ve been getting that come prepackaged with the vegetables.
06:00 PM: I set up Mom’s little water fountain on the east porch. The trickling sound it makes has an exceedingly calming effect and sends the stresses of the day away almost as effectively as a good night’s sleep. The fountain would make a great sleep machine.
06:10 PM: Nap time.
07:45 PM: I’m back up.
08:45 PM: Walked over to Sheetz for some ice cream for dessert. Tonight, we got Breyer’s Reese’s peanut butter cup flavor. While it tasted like peanut butter for sure, the sensation did not come very close to the original peanut butter cup flavor. But hey, at least they tried. 
09:30 PM: [Emmy] and I read the introduction to Mary Shelly’s book: Frankenstein as supplied in the Cliffs Notes.
11:00 PM: Watched CNN’s AC 360, which mostly focused on the gulf oil spill as it has since the beginning of the crisis 91 days ago.
11:35 PM: Watched KDKA TV’s Local News at 11:00 PM.
12:30 AM: Blogged a bit and perused through the daily stats. I’m pleased to see that I’m getting more referrals to my sites from self help and do it yourself web sites. It appears that the word about my personal love quest is starting to get around. Nice.
02:30 AM: I Finally located on Amazon, Haydn’s string Quartette #30 in E Flat Major, Op. 33 No. 2 “The Joke,” performed by the Kodaly Quartet. I studied this piece extensively in my second music appreciation class in college during the winter and spring of 1985. God, this brings back some good memories of flea markets with the Parkers, Moorhead, Pitt, the many foot treks I made between north and south Oakland, the music building on the corner of 5th and Bellefield avenues, Hines Chapel, and all the great stuff I learned that year in Pittsburgh about music, writing, computers, and life in general. 1985, though full of struggle, was nonetheless a very good year. I became a seasoned college student at that time.
02:35 AM: Well, my nap energy has run out again. So I’m off to bed. Pleasant dreams to you and I hope you visit here again tomorrow. Good night.
