Sunday Wasn’t Much Different

Posted on by

Except for making Corned Beef & Cabbage for dinner, did some laundry, took a couple of walks in the sunshine with the Dog (even though it is Still cold out) and straightened up around the house a bit, I really didn’t get anything done.

Good thing I have the MCARC 2-meter Chat Net @ 1930!

Tried making a landscape in Vue 7 last night. Just can’t get it to look “real.” There’s gotta be a setting I’m missing somewhere. Danged thing took 12 hours to render a 15-second movie…

So I’m trying it again with some different settings. Say’s it’ll take about 20 hours to render this 30 second video…

Kinda Sorta just marking time today. Had “Clash of the Titans” and “Wrath of the Titans” and “2001: A Space Odyssey” going in the background while listening to whose on the radio and getting small things done around the house. Have my camera running to make another time-lapse of clouds. My Volcano e-cig seems to be going TU. Which figures cause I bought it almost a year ago.

Kissin’ my Schweetie whenever she walks by.

Kind Of A Slow Saturday…

Posted on by

But, then, y’all kind of expect that of me. Ah well.

Before I lost my truck for the day to our son, I did manage to get down to Blockbuster and rent a couple of movies on Blu Ray. Clash of the Titans & Wrath of the Titans. Guess it’ll be a Titan evening!

We Had One Of These When I Was A Kid.

Finally made a PSK31 contact on 10-meters. Hell, finally made a non-Net radio contact. Was going to do more but got busy trying to fix the connection between my laptop and radio. Dang thing keeps dropping out after 5-10 minutes so I have to manually control the radio. That sucks! Worked fine for 3 years or so but lately it just drops the connection after awhile. Think I’ll set up a desktop computer and see if that works…

I really don’t use the radio as much as I should though.

Playing With Vue 7

Other than that, just not much going on. It rained off and on today so the dog and I got to take only one walk. Left some peanuts for the squirrels. Got our feet all muddy. The usual.

We dated a few times in High School.

Usual Friday “Date.”

Posted on by

SWMBO took me for Mall Food where she had her usual sandwich and I had the chicken strips & fries. Then we walked the mall. Then we spent too much money at COSTCO and back home. Oh, on the way out we stopped at the Library & Post Office here in Belfair.

Jayne Mansfield

While walking the mall, we saw a young (damned ugly) girl and her mom/grandma that had so many face-piercings I’d bet they couldn’t get within 2 miles of the airport. Any airport! Now, I can understand youthful “I gotta be who I am” exuberance (No I can’t. I just don’t understand body piercings or tats), but, mom/grandma trying to keep up with the kids that way is just damned silly. Looks crappy (to me) also.

Course, I feel the same way about those young girls that aren’t really that great looking in the first place, but could look a LOT better without the pink/orange/purple hair and lip/eyebrow piercings. And for some reason they choose the ugliest damned clothes too.

Maybe I’m just getting old. I did spend some of my youth wearing bell-bottom pants cause my Dad hated them. I’d have probably been a “Hippie” but he would have killed me! Smile

Not much else going on today. Sun is out and in but it hasn’t been raining too much. Think me and the Dog will go for another walk.

News says ANOTHER small plane has gone down and killed folks. Sounds like we need to ban all small planes…

My Goodness! Thursday, Already?

Posted on by

Wednesday evening MCARC 2-meter Chat Net went well. Stayed up until about 2230 then laid down and read until I was ready to fall asleep. SSDD.

Just finished 2001: A Space Odyssey and am about half way through 2010; neither of which I had ever read before. Pretty good. That makes about, what? 15 books or so since January 1st? I probably need to get a life!

2001 novel

Not much going on today. Still kind of wet out but SWMBO, the Dog & I managed a couple of walks around the property. It’s nice walking along and holding her hand…

So, now I should start my lessons on WordPress, PHP & CSS…

I Should.
