I spent a lot of time helping my neighbor do some work in his garage on the basis that he would help me do some work in my garage when I begin to add that big partition in the car bays. We had a good time, and I got some exercise and some good conversation. It's the little things that matter. I had... Sign in to see full entry.

It's already 37, a good ten degrees warmer than it was all day yesterday. Allegedly we are on our way to 47. Seeing is believing, if you know what I mean. The next fifteen days appear to show a continuing 'warming trend.' I can take that. I've done a lot of research into my current work, and hope... Sign in to see full entry.

Took the dogs out and needless to say, a good time was had by all. It is still about 32 or so, but the wind has gone still, a rare phenomenon in the UP. I'm going to get to work on todays version of 'Interdimensional,' but have a quick question. Anyone else getting six days to the gallon? Sign in to see full entry.
It was one of 'those' mornings where I had to clean my regular email account of trash I had not removed when I had finished reading it. I was one of the very first people to be offered a 'Gmail' account back in very late 2003. For the first nine months of its existence, Gmail was by invitation only.... Sign in to see full entry.

I just added ~800 words to 'Interdimensional' that should have been part of last nights' entry, but I had painted myself into a corner and wasn't sure of how I was going to get out of it. I could have dumped the entire sub-chapter and started over, or I could fix it. After staring at it for about... Sign in to see full entry.
The wind tossing the trees around, occasionally touching the house, caused the dogs to be alert for intruders all night. It's a wonderful 22 degrees outside with some occasional snow drifting down. As Lawrence Welk used to say, 'Wunerful, wunerful!' While I will be taking them outside for their... Sign in to see full entry.

I narrowly escaped another computer disaster based on the problem I had last year. I'm not sure exactly what set this thing off, but I restarted my main computer and it went into recovery mode. Well, three hours later, I was able to restore the thing exactly how I had last left it, but had I not... Sign in to see full entry.
True story. It's currently 38 degrees, and yet, it is actively snowing outside. I was up (far too) late last night talking to someone in 'emotional upset.' If I was lucky, I got a total of four hours of sleep last night. Ehhh. Life goes on. I'll probably take the dogs out for a bit and return. The... Sign in to see full entry.

Just Some Updates
I've been working on getting further along in my 'Interdimentional' story, but I've been emailing back and forth with Michael, the man who did the voicing of 'The Touch.' He is currently all but done with my 'It's A Springtime Thing.' It's only a seventy minute story, but he has done an excellent... Sign in to see full entry.
It appears today will be one of those days where we will be at the bottom of the temperature yo-yo we will have all this week. High of 34 today, but 45 tomorrow. We get caught between the push and shove of barometric pressures from Lake Superior and Lakes Michigan and Huron. The wind comes hard from... Sign in to see full entry.
