Weirder.

I did half of my projects, minus laundry too. Though I was interrupted. Today was my ex-neighbor's trial date. He thought he might be going to jail. So, I sort of stayed near home to hear the verdict. Guilty. He must pay $140 in fines and fees ($15 a month for a year or up front if he wants), another year of probation, and he must go to anger management therapy. The city would not let the charges be dropped. However, he is not in jail.

My lady friend called, in the afternoon, to ask me to be a party to a chain letter. Oh, she knows me. This is not a money related thing, but revolves around a book and six letters. When I receive the letter, I send a book to whoever's name is at the bottom of the list, scratch that name off, add my name to the top of the list, then send the list to 6 people. Well, I am trying. Most of the people I know, I know online. Most of the real people I know are either paupers, grad students with wife and children or otherwise paupers, or I just barely know them. So, I have emailed a number of people online and asked them to help.

For my part, I do not mind sending off a book. If I get nothing in return, I am not out much. But I have imparted a little bit of my interest to someone else who might enjoy a new perspective. And, should it all work out, I might receive something interesting. I feel a little guilty asking, and if this first group says no... Hmmm, I am not sure there is a second group. I might have to fish out some various addresses, make up some names, and do it myself. I said I would, I did not say how. I are an engineer in heart if not by profession, or, so goes my theory.

The house is halfway picked up, one load was taken to storage, I did some shopping, I bought some beer (Yipee!), and I did a few other things not on my list. So, it was not a complete waste. Further, after getting up at 1:00, I am still awake at 22:53. I have a decent chance of waking at a more suitable hour tomorrow and getting back on the horse. I really do keep trying. And, if I do fail often, I am ready to try to ride that horse just a few days or a week later. I really am trying to turn a new leaf and my body and mind are in the game. It could happen.

Oh, I may be pitching for a couple of things in the near future. A book, some activities, and some ideas. No, I do not receive a nickel. Do you see any advertisements here? Better not, unless "They" put stuff up, but I do not think "They" do. I simply am not interested in earing money that way. Heck, I have attempted to turn search engines and such off for this site. And, quite often, I do not put my URL up when posting. Those who know and like me know where I am. I am just letting you know.

Well, a little air conditioning to cool the place, a couple of beers, and it will be time to try to turn over that leaf one more time. I will keep trying until that dratted leaf goes over and stays there.

Be well, Blessings, and good night!
