Over the past few days. Got about a paragraph into them and bored myself to tears so I deleted them. Lucky You!

Life has been so SSDD around here I’m almost ashamed to mention it. Weather has been fairly wet, sometimes windy, kind of warmish then Cold again. Winter! In WaRshington.

Dog and I have been walking about 3 miles a day. Even in the rain. He hates his rainccoat though. Doesn’t like pooping around that strap that goes under his tail.

I’ve been moving things around on the new hard drives. Still up in the air about moving everything off the 5 TB drive and re-partitioning it. Handy to have it split like it is.

Love this 43” monitor I got for my office! I don’t have to put on my glasses to read the text on the thing when I run it in Radio mode. Otherwise it’s showing movies or tv shows all day in the background. Nice.

This week I finished the first 4 Pern books and am now in “All The Weyrs Of Pern.” It is such a joy to just sit and read again!

Just not a lot going on around here. Winter routine at it’s finest.

Oh, woke up the other morning from a strange dream that Gravity had increased X4 while I was laying in bed. But only from my waist down. Woke up with a terrible ache across my hips and down through both legs which went completely away when I turned to get up. Weird! This getting OLD shit sucks.

So, when does “old enough to know better” kick in?

Got to pick SWMBO up at the QFC tonight. Regular Friday Routine. Almost the best part of the day for me!

Which is a good thing. Got tired of feeling like someone had kicked my ass from here to tomorrow. Felt really crappy yesterday before the Wx changed; my head could feel the change long before the rain actually showed up. Weirdest feeling I’ve ever had.

Got off my fat, lazy, ass today and burned the burnables while it was raining. Made a run to ACE Hardware (via Habitat For Humanity and DQ) and got a couple of those floaty blocker thingies at the bottom of the tank and replaced those in the upstairs toilets. (God, I love Technical language!) Did a load of laundry.

Walked the Dog a few times even though it was raining. He won’t go out to his poop yard and poop even when I lead him out there. So I have to take him for walks rain or shine or snow. Dipshit.

Made some pseudo-BBQ chicken in my new convection oven with the pans SWMBO got me for it for Christmas. Was good but cooked way faster than I was expecting. Was good though. Chunked taters and a green bean& corn mix. Yummy.

My Pi2 in the living room seemed to go TU so I ordered a new one. Got here today. Well, the new one is a Pi 3. Assembled it, put the “hard drive” (SD Card) in, turned it on, and nothing. Turns out the SD Card went TU and I didn’t really need to buy a new Pi 3. Luckily I had a couple of cards laying around and installed NOOBS, etc, and both are working fine. The Pi in the living room is used as an entertainment center to watch movies or tv shows on our NAS on the tv in the big room.

What I’m going to do with the “extra” Pi 3 I don’t know. Yet.

BTW, DQ has totally lost my business. Stopped in for the $5 Deluxe Cheesburger meal. It sucked. Even in store the lettuce was warm, the fries were limp, and the Doctor Pepper tasted like IDon’tKnowWhat. So, they screwed their last chance to keep any of my business.

Messes with my radio’s. Especially those flashing or otherwise blinking Christmas lights. I suppose I could go buy some of those LED lights; but then I’d have to climb a ladder to put them up. Not really into “Christmas Lights” in any case. Just seems more commericialization of it all anyway. For an Agnostic I sure have funny ideas about Christmas.

Not a whole lot going on. SWMBO got to Oregon, Ohio okay; although getting that information out of her is akin to pulling teeth from a cat. Still hoping she’s having a nice visit though.

So, the Dog and I managed to get in a couple of walks between the rain drops today. Otherwise just normal Sunday routine. Though I had to stop and remember it is Sunday. Just not the same without SWMBO being around.

Headaches finally starting to go away. Not sure what’s been causing it the last couple of days, but, it’s been a real pain. Gonna be a damned shame if the new waterbed is causing the headaches and not the Wx. That would suck!

Youtube is so funny! Started out with People are Awesome and let it autoplay all day and it’s on “Franz Josef Gottlieb [1970] Hänsel und Gretel verliefen sich im Wald” right now. Crappy video quality.

Crap! It’s been raining a lot! (Sux!)

Started a James Bond marathon as background noise and just to see how long EVERY James Bond Movie made would take to play and it gets to “Thunderball.” Caught myself watching it and had the thought “Which of the movies is it that Sean Connery takes over?” Yes, I was looking for that older gray haired Connery and totally forgot that he started James Bond. I can be a dork.

Not a whole Hell of a lot going on. Raining like crazy all day. Dressed the dog up in his parka, and donned mine, and we did get out for one walk. Both of us was still soaked by the time we got back.

So, I’ve been doing a lot of housework getting ready for guests his Thursday. Thanksgiving. And I braved the Wx and finally got to burn trash. Nice to have all that crap out of the way.

SWMBO mentioned the other day that she’d sure like to spend her birthday with her Mom (in Oregon, Ohio). Their birthdays are next Monday. So I bought her a ticket. She flies out Friday night after work and comes back next Tuesday. That’ll have to be her Christmas present also though.

But I did get her one of those gold/copper electric fry-pan thingies that she wanted. Ill have to give it to her before Thursday (Thanksgiving) so she can use it if she wants.

The MCARC 10-meter Tuesday Chat Net went well. Most everyone heard me and I them. Hoodsport never comes in.

Anywho, SWMBO is home and it’s about my bedtime. Gotta pee.
