I'm a baby boomer sci-fi
geek with a laptop.


I was in...

...bed by 3am but couldn’t sleep so I got up and worked on POS C.

Now I’m ready for D. I added a bit more and now the story is about where I want it to be word count wise. I went back to bed about 4:30am and my tooth acted up on me again after 4 days of relief. I went to watch some tv. Gold trails and Ghost towns again. And my mouth felt better so I did the cbi thing and went back to bed by 5:30am.I slept all right from there but it was still warn in the bedroom. Anne needs the humidifier for her cold. Now watch by Christmas I’ll have it.

I enjoyed Raw last night. On a scale of 1-10, I’d rate it a 7.

I’m counting down the days here for my laser surgery. Wednesday Jan 10th. 11:00am.

And management knows I’m taking that day off as well. It’ll be nice to be able to read comfortably again.

The other thing I’m looking at getting out of the way is my website fees. At $90 bucks/year for my domain name and hosting, isn’t bad. Blogger sucks in Firefox but eventually I’ll be returning to my Xp platform. Then I’ve got lodge dues coming up and coincidently that’s the same price as my website. That’s why I have my vacation pay accrued for this reason. Next year, if I’m still alive and have my health, I’m going to after the above-mentioned expenses save the balance of my vacation pay for something nice. I figure if I can put in 28.5 hours @ my current rate of pay, so it wouldn’t be worth my while to go look for something else. I’d have to start at the bottom and instead of the 6% vacation pay I’m getting now I’d be at 1% and what for a few dollars an hour more? It all works itself out anyway.

Ok what’s on my plate today? Well, not much this afternoon until I go in for work, I think Anne’s off today and tonight there’s an Oiler hockey game @ Nashville. JT will have that on. Most likely when I come home tonight, I’ll be working on POS D have lunch and watch the news finish D and go to bed.


Coast has Alex Jones on tonight. This guy aggravates me. His voice alone is grating on my nerves not to say much about his conspiratorial content. He loves Picking on Masons

Thinking he’s an expert, when he knows very little. Then of course he’ll talk about the so-called New World Order. He peddles fear appealing to the Christians who buy into things like Jack Chick and his tracts. Jones talks with urgency on his tongue making it sound like the world, as we know it will be doomed if we don’t run out and burn down the local Masonic lodge. Jones will cover it all. JFK conspiracies the whole 9 yards I listen to him with a grain of salt. But that’s all for now.

Sigh, now my font is misbehaving again.
