What's going on

Pasadena, subscribing to Netflix, Champion Cable (no premium channels), ReplayTV, Yahoo! Music, SBC/Yahoo! DSL, AOKwebhostusa, anything Google puts out.

Job hunt not going well. Twenty eight days to go. Interviewed with Google, they want someone with more breadth and depth of knowledge. Maybe school should be in my future. Resume has been sent 50-70 times. Career fair Monday. I've talked to about 1/4 of the people who might be able to point me to a job. Posted an IT services available ad to craigslist, no responses.

Rubbing Sheree's feet for hopefully more than an hour a week. Looking forward to hybrid solo carpool lane stickers, and post-surgery foot comfort. Sending flowers hopefully once a month. Avoiding the gym 6 times a week. Meeting 1/8 of my home cooking and cleaning responsibilities. Thanking her for great setting. Not taking enough pictures with MY NEW CAMERA! Giving Thor his pill once, sometimes twice daily.

House needs work. New threshold, windows finishing, floor finishing, Costco closet work, grout kitchen floor, backyard pile. Cleaning & organizing here, there, everywhere. Halbert family including two maybe three of four siblings coming for Thanksgiving.

Why I blog: kottke.org, wilwheaton.net, spydergal.blogspot.com, matthewgregori.com/ramblings, extempore.livejournal.com, waiterrant.com, standingonthebox.blogspot.com, I am pretty far behind.
