A Quiet Sunday

A nice quiet Sunday today. Watched a ball game (GO PHILLIES!) and just took it easy. Replaced a burned out light bulb and talked to a friend, but other than that, a nice quiet Sunday. Went through a software tutorial to get a start on using some book design software, but that's a fun thing so it doesn't count as work. Will pick up the job hunt tomorrow, looking for a survival job until I can get something better. Also looking into getting into something new. Have to do a little research but hopefully can start working on it soon. I'll keep you all posted.

Another Day

Another fun day of shopping for my mom. The usual weekly shopping trip along with the usual nonsense about the cable TV, complaining about nothing ever being good enough and all the other related BS. 'Nuff said.

On to other things. Have some ideas for designs for my Zazzle store, along with redoing some existing products and adding the existing designs to more products. It's supposed to be lousy this Saturday so maybe I'll get something done for a change. Maybe. Other than that, the Super Bowl is this Sunday. My local team isn't in it but it's still fun to watch, especially for the commercials. They do tend to be better than the usual drivel they put on to try and sell us stuff. With any luck, the game will be good, too.

It's Sunday

It's Sunday and it's actually sunny outside and there's a little bit of melting going on. It's supposed to get colder tomorrow. Figures, the day I plan to go to the Philadelphia Auto Show it's supposed to get colder. Happens every damn time. I think I've got the transmission glitch fixed. The fluid was a bit low so I got some and added some until it read full. Took it out this morning after a cold night and it seemed to be okay. I think the fluid was low enough that it needed to warm up so there was enough in the mechanism to work.  I guess I'll just have to keep an eye on it from now on. Car's got a lot of miles on it so I guess it comes with the territory. Have to keep up with it until I can get a new one.

More crappy weather is on the way, too. Supposed to have sleet turning into rain on Tuesday and freezing rain to rain on Wednesday. I'm really getting tired of this shit. Can't wait for February to go away. It's been a long winter so far. Back's still bugging me a bit from shoveling that heavy snow. Have to keep doing the stretching and exercise. Spring training starts in about two weeks so that's one harbinger of spring and the Rolex 24 at Daytona is finishing today. That's the start, more or less, of the car racing season in the US. I'm really looking forward to warmer weather. Can't wait to start exercising outside again.

Olympics

Been watching the Olympics the last two weeks. It's been interesting. Michael Phelps won eight gold medals and the winner of the women's marathon won by a one minute (more or less) margin. It's been fun.
