Could I please speak to someone who can actually READ the notes?</p><p>My phone died.  Again.  This time it just won&#8217;t charge or turn on. Eventually I get another replacement, but there was a week there when all text messages and voice mails evaporated.</p><p>My rent check got lost &#8211; which actually turned out OK, but I had a really angsty week worrying about late fees and stuff.  With proof the bank screwed up I&#8217;m cool with no late fees.  I lurve my landlord.</p><p>My son left for his second deployment to Iraq.</p><p>My support check is late.  So I can&#8217;t even get another rental car until that shows up.  And the car Ginnie borrowed for 5 minutes to pick me up from the rental place ran out of gas.</p><p>Daughter just happened to step outside tonight just as the ex was cruising past our place.  I wonder how many times he&#8217;s done that!  And Ginnie&#8217;s met the new girlfriend who was with him.  Nice date, cruising past his ex&#8217;s apartment.</p><p>The program I bought to create the Program Directory for PodcampAZ has been giving me fits.  It says I can use any Windows acceptable font, and is supposed to save to pdf but every time I try it I ended up with white text on white background.  Finally, after hours of searching help pages for both this stupid program and Adobe, I managed to get it to work.  But not on an Adobe reader &#8211; there are  with X in it at the end of every line.  Yet if I open the same pdf with another reader those marks aren&#8217;t there.  I win?</p><p>I have the <a

href="http://gangplankstudios.com/">Gangplank</a>&#8216;s podcast too.  I have a <a

/> </a></div><p>Geeze you people are nosy.</p><p>This week was mostly spent at home doing absolutely nothing but catching up on all the podcasts I missed the weeks before.  Tuesday&#8217;s helping with Tyson was canceled*, but Wednesday I managed to get to Gangplank for his lunchtime talk regarding &#8220;What is Art?&#8221;  After that I hung out with Sheila and we watched a couple of movies and headed back to Gangplank for our recordings.  I got both episodes edited and loaded online by midnight and then crashed for the night.</p><p>The mail was slightly interesting today.  I&#8217;m for jury duty on Monday, October 27th, which is going to be logistically difficult with the Girlchild&#8217;s school schedule.  Oh well, plenty of time to figure it out.  Also got a short survey from Nielsen and they pre-paid me two whole dollars!  Whoopie-shit.</p><p>What else?  Need a man.  Need a sexual partner in the worst way.  Don&#8217;t want a re-la-tion-ship, just someone to come over on a quasi-regular basis and have some fun.  Know anybody?</p><p>Also caught up on some DVR&#8217;d stuff.  Guessed correctly who the last 5 were going to be on America&#8217;s Got Talent.  Watched How to Look Good Naked, Jon and Kate Plus 8, Project Runway, and the last of the Jeremiahs.  I really liked that show.  I&#8217;ve checked out the new 90210 (blech) and the following show Priveledged, which isn&#8217;t bad.  Netflix has provided me with a couple DVDs of Planet Earth so I&#8217;ll have something to watch this weekend.  I&#8217;m pretty sure I have my DVR set for all the returning shows and I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve seen anything new advertised that I want to see.  Maybe this podcast I&#8217;m listening to now will have some suggestions.</p><p>Oh yeah, I&#8217;ve decided to <i>be nice</i> and told Casey that if he wanted to invite his father to Kira&#8217;s birthday party next weekend, I&#8217;d stay away.  My choice.  Buck&#8217;s still apparently got issues being around me and I&#8217;m with Kira all the time so let him have that day.  If he decides not to attend (which I secretly expect) I&#8217;ll go after all.</p><p>Okay, that&#8217;s all I can think of.  I get paid tomorrow so I expect to click someone&#8217;s paypal button first thing in the morning.  I wish I could do more.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://spellwight.com/2008/09/alright-fine-ill-update-already/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
