Log
09:45 AM: I’m up.
10:00 AM: Facebooked for perhaps ten minutes. Friend count: 620 (up four). Fan count: 114 (unchanged).
11:30 AM: [Emmy] called to say that she misses being here, and I certainly miss having her around. I just may have to visit her later this month.
12:00 PM: Took down the three strings of icicle Christmas lights on the south porch. No repairs needed this time, and no bulbs were out. Amazing how much longer the lights last when they’re not out in all the weather (these were situated under the porch roof, and so they got little rain exposure).
12:30 PM: Took down all lights on the west stoop. Just two bulbs needed replacing in these. The strings themselves are still in very good shape, even though I bought these back in 2008 and have used them each Christmas holiday season since.
01:10 PM: Watched today’s episode of CBS’s Face The Nation via the DVR.
02:00 PM: Watched this past Sunday’s episodes of NBC’s Meet The Press weekly news broadcast via the DVR.
03:00 PM: Worked on getting this blog caught up; I’m perhaps ten days behind on these journal entries.
03:05 PM: Hmmm. The DVR recorded no episode of NBC’s Nightly News broadcast last night.
04:00 PM: Heading for sister Christine’s house. We’re going to watch the Steelers Vs. Broncos game. Back later.
08:10 PM: I’m back home, with a heavy heart. The Steelers lost to the Broncos in overtime play, 29 to 23. Grrrrrr.
10:00 PM: Just added this week’s batch of 160 new songs to my DJ music library. While I do not DJ much anymore, It’s sure nice having this stuff on the iPods. Great treadmill music.
11:00 PM: Talked with [Emmy].
11:50 PM: Watched tonight’s episode of CBS’s 60 Minutes news broadcast via the DVR.
12:05 AM: The daily traffic stats from yesterday for my blogs. The monthly keyword hit count for this run is 936, up from 927 at last check. The record high for this dimension remains at 1788. The next goal: 2000.
12:50 AM: Watched the last two episodes of the 1970s children’s sci-fi show Space Academy, called Star Legend, and Johnny Sunseed.
01:00 AM: I’m heading to bed. Good night and do stop back tomorrow for more content. 
Good night.
