Reality Me

* Time to help my 7 yr old memorize a speech at the last minute.

Hahaha! I just got a spam titled “Great Deal on ’84 Models!” Weeelll. Let’s assume they were legal in ’84 at, what?, 17 years old and that would make them….47 oops. 37 (I must have been tired thanks for the comment)! So yes, you are going to get them for a steal!!

* Been putzing on the computer for the last hour playing with blog tools. Found a friend has linked his blog to mine using Technorati. That was very exciting! I begin to regret putting such a negative twist on it to begin with now that I’m starting to enjoy it so much. This has been fun but my eyes are watering and although this was relaxing, I feel I should have been doing something like cleaning.

* Wife and baby are trying to sleep. Wife fighting migraine; baby screaming to get out of crib (I will rescue in a second).

* Spoke with mother and father on the phone. I think they are going to save my butt for a couple of weeks but I’ve got to get a job immediately!

* Whew! Debts calculated. Files in better order. Office starting to improve. Now if I can get the mess a little more under control and can get an income, things will be much better.

* Hopping out of my skin. Took another meclizine (stuck in throat) and switched to decaf tea. Back to filing and finances.

* Lunch break over.

2nd Mars Rover lands on Mars Looks like it landed near a subdivision! Either Mars is more similar to Earth than expected or the fake landing was staged too close to a Los Angeles residential area.

The actual article

Special note: My monitor is dying so it is darker than most. I could be seeing this picture different than you.

* Having read my wife’s blog, its quite evident we have some communications problems. She thinks some things are important to me that I do not think are important and I read too much into her thoughts. I’d guess this is typical of married couples.

* Done screwing around. Time to get to work on organizing my life, finances and office.

* I feel like a disappointment. For over a year I’ve wanted to create from scratch some nice blogging software for the wife. Now she’s moved to blogger.com. Her blog.

* Washing some nice calming meclizine down with some good ol’ invigorating coffee

* If I am not careful today, I can tell the 13 yr old is going to get on my nerves.

What a great blog! Help Me Bubby!. Like Dear Abby online!

* I know what I need to do. Get working on the file system and accounting. Feeling unnnnn focused. Eyes blurry. Must find glasses. Take some meclizine. I need something in my ears. All the white noise in this house is driving me crazy. I want music but can’t readily pop some in. I’d love our whole cd collection to be in mp3 format on the network with some bluetooth headphones to listen to it!

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

* I think I was up at 2am but not sure.

* Awake at 4am. Fire is still going as I can see the coals through the vents in the stove but I can’t convince myself to go get wood despite knowing that it needs wood badly. Just rolled over and went back to sleep.

* 8:11 am I can’t ignore the babies calls anymore. I’d really like to sleep in a little more.

Last Night

* Sheets were still wet. Dried them but wanted to go to bed. Got them dried but didn’t want to disturb the wife so I just borrowed some of her covers and passed out.

* Talked to Mom at 4:45ish and feel better. Went to pickup 10 yr old from a birthday party which always takes longer than expected. Being anywhere is better than being with the family! Dropped off ALL the kids at 5:30ish with the Grandmother and went to our first event cache which was very nice. It was fun to be just adults socializing and putting faces to the names of these people you feel like you’ve gotten to know just reading their log entries.

* Wife got a migraine 8ish and we rushed her home for rest. I wish I could have her back at the chiropractor and wish that I was better organized to actually fix her meals for a balanced diet.

* Went to pick up the 13 yr old and the 19mth old. Returned home with a very peaceful car ride only to have words with the 13yr old at the house. He has such a trashy mouth full of spite, hate and anger. Got them to sleep, checked email and am now here.
