another rainy day

temperatures outside are in the low 50s and it is a steady light rain (with occasional heavier rain) so it's no fun being outdoors and on a saturday around here, it's definitely no fun driving with saturday drivers in the rain (saturdays are bad enough around here without the rain)... i could take a ride into the country... it would only take ten or fifteen minutes to get out where there is less traffic, but still, i don't want to push the test drives for the first time on a wet surface... i will head out in a little while though, the urge to drive the new car is much stronger than any whimpy caution or other more real obstacles lol lam...

for the moment i'll catch up on some of the shows added to the dvr this week... what sucks most about the rain (and the rain all week) is the construction on the building is in mid-process so there is no siding on any side of the building and all that is trying to keep out the rain is some building cover material imperfectly nailed and duct taped around the building... so far we have not had to (cuz we sit around in long sleeve sweats), but using the heat to keep out the chill will raise the monthly bills that i pay and that's frustrating, but it's the potential water damage and moisture and long term mold mildew in the inner walls without outer walls on the building that really frustrates me... and then there is the florida insect population moving in and the longer there are no outside walls, the better chance of ants, roaches, termites, and whatever to build nests in the walls, especially when it's chillier outside... the good news is that it is not summer (or spring or fall) so the bugs are not quite as active, but still, it's an old building and it is getting wet on the inside... i've got to get the insecticide out and mixed and into the walls...

anyway, it's time for lunch... anybody wanna join me? :)

Catch up (and know more)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
