33

One hour and forty-five minutes past Ideal Time . . .

Well, finally turned 33. Yup, 33 years ago, I was born. That's about it. The traditional trip to Gennaro's will be withheld 'til tomorrow, as something big comes tonight.

The big thing today was my car: got a new battery, got 'er washed, and got the gas tank topped off. Not much else to say there.

Old Car, Dead Battery . . .

One hour and forty minutes past Ideal Time . . .

Just doing a routine turn on of my not-used-in-a-while car revealed that my battery had gone dead; looks like it's time to get a new battery, the current one is way overdue for a replacement. Also, besides a reminder to turn on my car once in a while, looks like I'll also pay a visit to the car wash, and top off the gas tank while gas is still fairly cheap.

Oh yeah, gotta finish reading Watchmen before March 6. This could be really good, or really bad; as always, fanboys will provide the ultimate barometer.

Back in the Rhythm . . .

Two hours and twenty minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

Not much to say: bank deposit; WWE PPV over the weekend; Jeopardy Online Testing; Super Bowl coming up, along with my birthday; yeah, I'll get to the job applications, CSUN thing, that possible Air Force Reserve thing, my future is at stake and I'm aware . . .

Though weaker, the ear infection persists, along with that cough; I'll be calling for cancelation opeinings at the clinic this week . . .

100 crunches today . . .

'Til next time . . .

Cold . . . Rain . . . Pain . . .

One hour and ten minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

After about a week of unusually warm weather, the winter chill returns with a side order of rain. The drop in air pressure used to mean sore joints, though that's been taken care of courtesy of a fine chiropractor; now the pain is in that persistently infected right ear. I had postponed a doctor's appointment for today yesterday, but may start calling in for canceled appointments next week, depending on how things develop.

The Big Inauguration threw me for a loop a bit, and I'm still trying to get used to my new schedule-and-planning. I have to keep calling in for jobs in the morning, CSUN, and just getting a real life in general in focus.

The Big Return - Ch-ch-changes!

One hour and forty minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

Well, it's been a lot of cleaning, Las Vegas, installing, re-installing, catching up, and redoing my schedule, but I'm back! Here's the big thing: going to sleep and getting up on time are now critical, so I'll be more willing to just set my internet surfing for another day. In the long run, this should greatly improve things once I get a job, or get back to CSUN . . . well, "if" is likely more accurate . . .

Health is the big thing, as I've developed an ear infection gets worse or better day to day, got a flu shot yesterday, and continue to deal with that persistent cough from last year's Thanksgiving cold. Still, I've returned to the morning exercises, though the long walks won't be returning for a while. Time will tell how all this should work out.
