I checked the final status of the water softener. I just don't know what is normal for it, on it, through control panel. I need to do research. I then emptied out some foods that needed to go and cleared the trash. Well, there are the smaller bins, but they only have paper items in them, no food. I suspect, as I finish some things in the living room, I should be able to pull all the paper trash into one of the sacks and get that out tomorrow. I have been clearing a path in the living room. Games, both ps3 and ps4, some computer games if I ever get that going, and movies... lots and lots of movies... have all been sorted into their respective groupings, then boxed. Bit by bit that area is looking good. More dishes were needing washed, after dealing with the trash, so that was set to soak. Finally, a meal was made, three courses was enough, and not really all that much. Still, quite good enough. I was able to push the meal from the normal morning on to past 14:00. Tomorrow may be the same, or I may push it even later.
More Dark shadows. That first cd was quite long. I have now seen two of the series. There seem to be about eight to ten, what 25 minute(?) shows? They are in chronological, though not numerical, order. These are the favorites, fan favorites. Not all that good. Though, as I susggested, it's something. And something mostly tolerable to watch when taking a break.
I do believe I will nap. Hopefully a short one. I am never sure. I'll set the alarm, and use the ac and fan. If I wake well, I will attempt to do the dishes, or some significant part of them, then dry and put up what I may. Then consider paper discards. And, finally, perhaps, research the water softener. I am not sure it has ever worked properly. Sometimes it feels like it, usually not. Annoying. Though, who knows, perhaps those are fraudulent devices. A fool a minute. It wasn't Barnum who said that, but someone did and knew darned well what they were talking about. Yes, yes, I... have taken many a hit there. I just like to at least think that I learned... when I noticed...
Later.
I recall Dark Shadows. Especially the teaser advertisement for when the series made its debut. A woman standing at the edge of a cliff, and then another woman (this one indistinct. Practically ghost like) comes up close behind her. All in glorious black and white. Not bad, but it wasn't quite enough to fully draw me in. At least not my 10-year-old self.

I should also point out here that, at the time, our neighborhood in Austin featured a lot of military personnel (Bergstrom AFB being a major employer). The couple living next to us was a former Air Force officer who'd been stationed in Germany, and had married a German girl. She was a devoted . . . and I mean STONE DEVOTED . . . fan of the series.
