  • i think i’m finally back to using my netspace email. bye bye hotmail.
  • i didn’t get nearly as much crap as i expected regarding the susanne sitchie.
  • penang on friday night with d-man. lots of food, beers, and sake.
  • d-man’s drug rep buddy jumping through the open windows at west street grille in order to avoid the lines.
  • i think i rebroke my foot. but that’s not a good thing.
  • walking into franklin cafe at 7:30 on saturday night, and not having to wait for a table. i love the summer months at restaurants.
  • my first visit to whiskey park. no sign of cindy crawford anywhere.
  • one of the most productive sundays ever. even though after waking up at 8:30, having breakfast and reading the oaper, i fell asleep for another hour, face down on my bed. i guess i needed more sleep
  • we’ve been waiting for the maintainance guy to fix the door in front of our washer/dryer for about a month and a half now. i got sick of waiting, so i went to home depot, bought the new parts, and installed it myself. i am a man, dammit. with tools. i can fix things. although the door now open in the other direction. oh well, change is good.
  • i put linux on my old computer. it works. i can now log into it from anywhere. and can now access my netspace account from it. not that any of you care, but it’s a big deal to me.
  • i am going to buy one of the new PC friendly ipods when they come out in august.
  • d-man’s zucchini. he bought an extra burrito from anna’s to bring for lunch today. i told him that if he forgot to take it to work, i’d take it and eat it. trying to be a funny guy, he wrapped a zucchini in tin foil, put it in the bag, and left it in the fridge for me. come on, i’m not that dumb. i know what an anna’s burrito feels like. i think he just got tired of carrying the zucchini around in his pants.
  • steve and i went running on monday night and got caught in a torrential thunderstorm. it was really cool. and probably really stupid since i had a cold and a still healing broken foot.
