"Listen to your heart....."



What's New...


Bliss. Sheer Bliss. Here I sit, connected to the net and not worrying about someone trying to get in touch with me, and not having had a second line installed. And without cellular charges. What you say? Impossible you say? Try Ricochet I say!!! That is if you live within their extensive (though limited) coverage area :-) They just got my city cabled up and I got my modem today!! The thing is a geek's dream! It automatically connects to their net when turned on and all you do is dial-in (and I use the term loosely) which takes about 3 seconds, and you are up! Email right now takes about 2-3 days to get turned on but that's okay. I still have my old ISP and could always shunt to my Hotmail or usa.net addresses. Anyway, you can leave it connected and let your mail S/W get your mail every so often. I know, I'm hopelessly afflicted with nerd/geek-itis.

The PC800 continues to make my day. Commuting is such a better experience than with the scoot and I know I'm more visible. The thing just runs and does a great job of making the AM and PM runs more fun. I cannot wait to get this thing out on the highway and do some cruising. Not the idiot-fast type but just mile after mile and see what I see. First thing is to do a circle of Ranier - Down to Portland, take a left to The Dalles, cross over at Marysville and up to Snoqualmie Pass and then down to Seattle and back home. Then I'll do the Grand Coulee run. Thanksgiving will find me on Vancouver Island at Strathcona Park Lodge for the holiday. Oh joy. That place is great...trust me. I stayed there before I got married, and we stayed there on our Honeymoon. Marvelous.

Now what and where to go for dinner? Should I do Thai or burgers? Hmmmm....... I had steak the other night, Thai two weeks ago and fast food all the time. Maybe I'll just cook up some Angel Hair and smother it in Parmesan...mmmmm.... My cold can't be blamed on my diet can it? Going to definately try to cut back on my smoking this weekend. I need the lung capacity. Hell...I need the lungs!!!!!


 

What's On My Mind


I got to get over the cold that I have. It has made me feel like shit for the last week, and basically, I'm just going to sleep and stay warm this weekend and get over it. For someone who wanted to tour this weekend this sucks. But then I don't have a license yet so.....

Adjusting to life as a single person really well. In fact, I'm deliriously happy that I'm alone again. ***Too weird....the phone just rang. It was Shuttle Express calling to confirm Colette's pickup for tomm. I guess she didn't bother to cancel. How unusual for her.....

Grooving to Little Feat again. I can listen to one CD for hours on end. 'Til I burn out that is. Then I don't listen to it for a while. Binge and purge musically. Musical Bulemia.

Yakked to the bro and the male parental unit today. Still waiting to hear from the younger older sister. Or for that matter, the oldest older sister. Is your family like mine? Like, they don't like each other much? Or at least behave like they don't? So it goes.

Behave.



Be Joyous!
