I am really liking it here

This place is great. What else can I say. I had never been exposed to any type of blogging network before and saw the name of this site on another writing site.

a few thoughts

It is Wednesday night and I am sitting at my computer writing this bit for my journal and listening to the radio (of course, WWL) for continuing coverage of Hurricane Ivan.

10 September 2004 Journal entry

It is a wonderful Texas morning today. The temperature is 68.3 degrees and the skies are mostly clear. It is a bit cool and the humidity, 65%, is very low. It feels great out. This is the way to start the day. I am also learning something from the book by Dale Carnegie that I have been reading. It... Sign in to see full entry.
