Six Feet Under, Robert’s (early) birthday dinner, and dancing….

Robert arrived at around 1:00, and we had lunch, consisting of ham salad on Portuguese muffins, and watched several episodes of the third season of Six Feet Under. We went to Irregardless for dinner, with 5:30 reservations. We had a coupon for a free bottle ($17 value) of wine, for Robert’s birthday, which we’re celebrating … Read more

TinyMCE; calendar migration; The Gun, The Flag, and the Noose; and dancing…

I spent most of my work day today working on a redesigned Web page for OIT Units. Observation: TinyMCE sucks. I exported my Palm Pilot calendar and then imported it into Google. I want to stop having to sync the two, so now that it’s imported into Google, I hope to just maintain my calendar … Read more

A memorial service date, updated “scripts” plan, workout, dinner out, and some pool…

We were up around nine this morning, and I made Cheddar omelets; sliced, fried turkey ham, and toast for breakfast, accompanied by coffee, of course.

A 73% off kind of shopping spree, dinner@Two Guys, and some lame dancing…

I thought about riding out to the outlet mall in Smithfield today, but decided to hit Kohl’s at Crossroads to see if I could get what I wanted there first, which would also help keep my gas usage down. I’m still above a half tank, and it’s coming up on two weeks, tomorrow, since I’ve filled … Read more
