MONDAY

Monday at last. Bet you don't hear that too often.

Another busy weekend - including a little bit of visiting, shopping, F1-ing, darts, eating, eating and more eating (last night we had 2 deserts - yum), and trying to rescue the key board I spilt a WHOLE CUP OF COFFEE IN! ......... and thats the kind of weekend it's been.

The good news is: this morning, I think I've gotten the key board all dried out again. So far, it seems to be working again - gone are the mysterious cryptic letters it was putting out yesterday. Thankfully it didn't end up in the laptop. Whew!

Happy to report - we managed to hook up the Sony Sound System + Sony TV + Apple TV + Time Capsule + Laptop without too much grief. This time round we actually started at step 1. And that makes a big, big difference.

F1 Sunday: My guy, Jensen Button didn't make it. He ended up coming in 6th place. The Red Bull team pretty much dominated that race, taking 1st and 2nd place. Can't win them all I guess. But just wait until the next race - in Germany.

TODAY: Home in the morning and out and about this afternoon. And for the rest of the day - we'll see.

Good to Go!

IT'S FRIDAY

IT'S FRIIIIIDAY! I have an Argentinian girlfriend that absolutely loves to say that. Sometimes - she'll even email it to you too. And FRIDAYS are actually pretty cool. There's a lot of significance to Fridays in fact - all over the world.

Updates from yesterday: NO I did not buy anymore more fish. As tempting as it was (seemed) - I some how managed to put the brakes on and exercised some self restraint and avoided all that. But trust me, this was not no easy thing to do. They had some really cool fish at that new shop - tiny little blue glow-in-the-dark fish. (cool!) I almost had myself convinced of getting some - UNTIL - until I saw the size of the duplicates of our fish. Of what our fish are going to be. Those are big fish. Wholly crap, we are going to end up with pretty big fish it seems. Geeez.

The new SONY is in the house. And all hooked-up too. And as predicted, it did take us awhile to get everything wired and working the way it should be. Something I'd rather not even talk about now. Let's just say - there's a lot to be said for starting at STEP 1 and not skipping to page 32! (wink, wink, other Me)

........ and as predicted - now we're gonna need a new TV stand too.

TODAY: Another long list of stuff to do. The usually Friday get-ready-for-the-weekend kind of stuff to do. (F1 Sunday coming up)

........ and the other Me is going to survive his not feeling so good too. Surprising what some rest, doctor visits and good medicine can do.

Happy weekend everyone. IT'S FRIIIIIDAY!

Good to Go!

AND ANOTHER THING

....... and that's the kind of day it was. L-A-Z-Y. I needed that - maybe? I guess? I have to admit - I sure enjoyed the day yesterday. (lazed at the pool almost the whole afternoon - getting some sun) I don't do that very often - maybe not often enough. Sitting still is NOT something I'm very good at.

TODAY: I've got a long list of things I need to do today.

I'm off to find a new fish place this morning. Have the other Me freaked out a little bit. I've been telling him we need a new room mate for Fish 1 and Fish 3. He He He. Maybe I better not. As the last time I did that (fish 3) - It just led to more stuff. From one thing to another thing to another thing. Funny how that happens - isn't it? We'll see. (?)

So me and the other Me have decided it's finally time for a new sound system. (granted the old Sony thing we have has lasted us - hmmm, a very, very long time in fact - and it still sort-of works) But, we've decided it's time we improve on that. Time to get into the new century and get a home theater I guess. Already done the research and we know exactly what we want. A new SONY. Exactly what we're going to get. A new SONY. And later in the day I'm going to attempt to buy that. A new SONY. .......... and I just have this feeling it's going to be another one of those things that leads to another thing and another thing - but first we're going have to figure out how to hook it all up.

And this just in. OMG! Believe it or not? (happening just as I'm sitting here typing this) Maybe you're not as amazed (amused) as I am, but the gardeners are finally taking care of the lawns around house. I'm sure it's been a least a couple weeks. (seems to me the only good reason for tall grass is to create a place for snakes to hide in) Anyways - there out there this morning with their edgers and brooms. And that's the way they do things here - not a lawn mower in sight. And then after it's all cut, along come the girls with their brooms and they sweep it all up. (right away - I'm going to sneak out and try and get a picture of that.)

Ok, driver's waiting and time to go.

Good to Go!
