Fall and Job Interviews

"Meh!"  This sound means "I really don't care." or "It doesn't affect my life."  Today was a day for Meh.  Got another AGP card from Greg.  Didn't work.  Still no video signal from my big PC.  This probably means I got a bad motherboard.  SUCK!!  On the "not-Suck" side, I had a job interview.  Good practice.  Did not get the job, but how weird would that have been.  I am not a SQL DBA and that is what they wanted.  Meh.  It is such a nice day.  I got some more grout de-groutificated from Lane's tub.  That much closer to re-grouting day.  Huzzah!

Summer goes away...

Since its raining because of Hurricane Karl(?), it seems suitable to say, "Goodbye" to Summer and "Hello" to Autumn.  (An interesting word as it ends with mn.  Kind of like damn.)  By the time the rain stops, it will officially be Fall and another year will be on it's downward death spiral. There is an election Tuesday in November and the crazies are coming out of the woodwork.  I find that amusing and entertaining.  Bread and Circuses!  What more could one ask?  Halloween will be kind of a drag this year with the little one all growed up and living at A&M.  I will probably drag some of the decorations down and put them up but it hardly seems worth the effort.  Job hunt now in full gear.  And that is all I will say about that.  Need to locate an AGP graphics card to see if the one I have is toast or if my mobo has gone poof.  HDD is good and bootable.  Monitors are both good.  Just got me a bad video card???????  Found one at Microcenter for a penny but it was a ghost.  Shame on Microcenter for not updating their database and getting my hopes up. 
More dust bunnies later.

Dust, it's everywhere.

Where were you on September 10, 2001? 

I'm Back!!!

Been getting an Error 503 message for the last few days.  Lots of things going on.  Went to the Blood Center and donated a pint and 250 gms of platelets.  Got my humors balanced good!! 
Did a bunch of laundry today and I feel like I got something accomplished.  I've been anticipating no longer being "disabled" and have been looking for jobs.  I bet I'm too old to hire.  
Got the spa all ready for the wif. 95 degrees and all balanced.  There are enormous black beetles flying all about the back yard.  I wonder what they are, other than black beetles?

Got to grill some brats, so it's time to go...

Labor Day 2010

I washed and dried all three pup dogs today.  It went well.  Wanted to trim the bushes but it rained all day on and off.  Something about a TS in the Gulf.  Meh.  Skyped my daughter today.  She is learning things I don't know!  Skype is cool.  Finally, a videophone that works and doesn't cost anything!  Woot!!  Most of you are way to young to remember Dick Tracy.  He had a wrist radio then a wrist TV.  Now we have them for real.  What's next?  Flying cars?  I want one.
The whole day went by and I didn't fly my flag because of the rain.  Now the sun is down and the day pretty much shot.  Deb made a fine lemon pound cake.  It's good.  Very lemony.

Sunday

A good day for Sun worshippers.  Rait nice outside today.  Missed posting yesterday.  Went to celebrate Jackie's Birthday at Lamonte's last night.  It was quite pleasant.  Forgot to do my meds yesterday until after I had Scallops Diavolo.  This is a mistake.  One I should remember not to make.  However, the memory is a funny thing.  I doubt anyone really knows exactly how it works on an atomic level.  No doubt there are theories with a lot of background info that points to "proof", but until we can get memory in a pill, its all conjecture.
It is time to watch the episode of Family Feud that I dvr'd yesterday.  Aughhhh!! Erased the wrong one!  I need a do-over button.

September Begins!

Friday.  Named for Frigga, Norse goddess of Happy Hour.  Packed up a Care Package for the Dotter today.  Skyped Bro and Sisters.  Drove the moped of Doom to the store and back to get stuff for the Care Package.  The rain fell but not on my freshly cleaned gutters.
Has anyone noticed how talented Pauly Shore is?
