Sunday : 08 October 2006
Today has been a fairly lazy day.  I woke up and meandered around the apartment a while before making my way to the shower.  After the shower, I meandered some more.  Then, I got a call from Adam – he told about his first few days on base.  Aside from some red tape and rigamarole, it sounds as though things are going pretty well.  When I finished talking with Adam, I realized that I was tired of looking at Intrepid sitting in the middle of the floor, so I took care of that by getting her up and running again.  Bonus points for: a) hooking it up to the Nine‘s secondary monitor (allowing me to have two “active” screens at the same time, thanks to the KVM), b) for having my mp3 collection back, and c) for finally getting the necessary video drivers to allow me to run CoH/CoV on Intrepid.

had invited me over to watch today’s Warhammer 40K game.  I did… although, one game (Chris vs. Christopher) finished shortly before I arrived and the other (Nox vs. John) was in its death throes shortly after I got there.  So, we sat around and talked for a while.  showed up a little later.  We continued to sit and talk.  Then, I realized that I was hungry and needed to appease my hunger.  The perennial problem: I didn’t know what I wanted for dinner.

I wound up at Super Target.  (I swear, that place could be considered my new Batcave or Fortress of Solitude…)  I walked in, got a cart, walked down a couple of aisles and ran into Lynn and Katarina, a couple of ex-coworkers.  I saw Lynn a few  months ago at Hogle Zoo, but I haven’t seen Katarina in a long time.  Lynn also told me that he’s started a podcast site, The Podcast Junkie.  I picked up a few groceries and cleaning supplies and headed home to cook dinner: Chicken breasts, rice and mixed vegetables.  I was even forward-thinking enough to fix enough to have a tasty lunch tomorrow.  Go, me.

invited me over to watch Without a Trace.  It was a good episode and one that took a slightly different tack than I was expecting.

Namaste.
