Log
07:15 AM: I’m up. Today I plan to gather up another bag of rubbish in the cellar, and finish figuring out how much Mom owes me.
10:00 AM: Went through my old clothes in the attic and rounded up some of them to give to Good Will.
11:30 AM: Registered all my web sites with the Alexa search engine in an effort to get more visitors to them.
01:00 PM: Played with Mom’s HD TV a bit, watched a segment of the Rain Man movie, and ran a new scan of the available channels. Looks like a few more digital channels have appeared (10 today, up from 6 at the last scan this past November).
02:45 PM: Watched today’s episode of The Young and the Restless on the DVR.
04:00 PM: Upgraded and registered my new copy of UltraCompare to version 8 from version 7. I love this program because not only is it great for finding differences between two files, but it also can find duplicate files. I found many dups in my music library and should be able to save roughly a gigabyte of space by getting rid of them.
05:00 PM: Watched today’s episode of Dr. Phil on the DVR.
05:20 PM: Heard from Mom. She’s been moved from the hospital to the nursing facility for some extensive physical therapy. Hopefully, they can build her strength back up to the point where she can transfer herself with fair ease between wheelchair, bed, toilet, and easy chair.
07:30 PM: Finished watching the Rain Man movie from Netflix on Mom’s HD TV.
08:20 PM: Cooked some catfish for supper. I’m full, hopefully, for the rest of the night.
09:15 PM: Added the 2009-06 edition of Promo Only’s Dance Radio music series to the DJ music library.
11:00 PM: Watched tonight’s episode of Hawaii Five-0 with [Emmy] over the phone.
11:25 PM: Worked on updating my DJ software to accurately record track numbers in my library for EADFF files from Promo Only. Currently this works correctly for regular CDs but not for the EADFF DVD format m4a files. I’ve changed the software. Now tomorrow, I must remove the resulting compilation errors. After that, this mini project will be done.
11:30 PM: Bed time. More tomorrow. So good night.
