Saturday, July 24th, 2010

  • Cat duty.  DONE.
  • Do 1 load of white laundry and 1 dishwasher full of dishes, pots, and pans.  DONE.

Log

09:50 AM: I’m up.

10:30 AM: Blogged and Facebooked.

12:15 PM: Chatted with [Emmy] about my hopes that reincarnation does not happen.  I’d dread having to do all this again; learning about life and being humiliated for that which I do not yet know.  I like where I stand now but hated the struggle to get here.  So if reincarnation indeed does occur, I hope that next time around, it’s not so hard to reach this plateau as it was during THIS life cycle.

12:40 PM: Took the   weekly site backups.

05:20 PM: Watched the 2010-07-07 and 2010-07-08 episodes of   Dr. Phil   on the DVR.

06:20 PM: Heated up the leftover beef roast and vegetables from yesterday.  But [Emmy] is growing bored with roasts.  So I suppose I’ll have to cook other foods when she visits.

07:30 PM: We bought some ice cream at Sheetz for dessert.  [Emmy] had strawberry cheesecake flavor and I had vanilla.

10:00 PM: Watched Larry King’s   Whale Wars   interviews with Bob Barker and some folks who take on illegal whalers boat-to-boat and sometimes, face-to-face.  Hooray for these heroes for trying so valiantly to save the whales.

11:00 PM: Read the   Frankenstein   book for an hour with [Emmy].

11:35 PM: Watched    KDKA TV’s Local News at 11:00 PM:

12:15 AM: Read another chapter of the   Frankenstein   book with [Emmy].

12:30 AM: This day’s over now, and so we’re going to bed.  More tomorrow.  Good night.

Weekly Backups: 2010-07-24

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

Weekly backups of all my blog sites completed.

  • Databases size: 13.5 MB.  That’s an increase of 300 KB from last week’s measurement of 13.2 MB.  The record database size still stands at 14.4 MB. 
  • Total data backed up: 96.5 MB.  That’s down  300 KB from 96.8 MB last week, as some of the log files that were not compressed last week are now deflated (zipped).  Note that this figure includes all databases, site code, static pages, and log files. The record amount of total data saved in a weekly backup remains at 96.8 MB.

Facebook Tid Bits: 2010-07-24

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

11:00 AM: I find public displays of passionate affection offensive.  Why?  They resemble a chef, cooking fine-smelling food before a group of starving people.  He says, “You can see these nourishing delicacies.  But you can’t have any.  Ha ha ha.  I’ve got mine but you don’t have yours, and I’m grateful for my riches because of how poor you are.”  :-(

01:10 PM: I hope that reincarnation is myth, as the thought of repeating all this scares me; learning life and enduring the humiliation of young ignorance, childhood punishments, and needing others so directly and so much for sustenance. Though I love my position, I hated the struggle to get here and thus, wish to avoid a replay. But if I return, I hope that it’s easier to reach this plateau then, than it was in THIS life cycle.

11:00 PM: I’m reading   Frankenstein   while a thunderstorm rumbles outside; adding a degree of realism to this tale of life imparted on a rainy, stormy night. Cool.

Today’s Diet: 2010-07-24

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

I keep this food diary to stay aware of just how many calories I’m eating daily, with the hope that it decreases the likelihood that I’ll overeat.    It seems to work, so here we go with another day…

Today, I consumed the following items:

  • Herbal tea and diet caffeine-free Pepsi  throughout the day. 0 calories.
  • 01:00 PM: 1 bowl of cherries.  200 calories.
  • 01:05 PM: 4 slices of muenster cheese.  320 calories.
  • 06:10 PM: Beef roast and vegetables.  800 calories.
  • 06:30 PM: 1 cup of raisins. 520 calories. 
  • 08:00 PM: 1 pint of Breyer’s vanilla ice cream.  520 calories.

Total calories: 2360.
