Man!

Draggy day, thus far.

And I'm hungry.

The Monday night TV lineup is dreariness to the 7th power.

Whenever will "Heroes" return to brighten up the first day of the week?

Isn't that what acting is?

Yesterday was busy!

I was up at 5:50 a.m. I stripped my bed and made a trip to a laundromat with pillows (two standard, two body), a quilt and three fleece blankets, plus a very substantial mattress pad that fluffed up so full after an hour's drying that I could barely fold it in half to carry it to my car!

I was back home by 10 a.m. Even though I wash clothes weekly, my machine cannot handle large items like blankets, pillows, etc. So for this week's laundry, I took everything else I'd normally wash at home.

My arms are plenty sore from all the reaching and stretching (to hold heavy wet items and get them to a large dryer) (to keep dried items off the floor while I folded them).

The afternoon I spent watching the first disc of the first season of "Lost". SPECTACULAR on my plasma HDTV. I took a break to prepare my dinner, and then settled in and watched the episodes again with the commentaries on. A very enjoyable evening that ended at 10 p.m.

DR MBARNUM - did you say that Laurie Mitchell was doing a commentary track for the upcoming DVD release of QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE?

I know Yvette Vickers did one for ATTACK OF THE 50 FOOT WOMAN....with Tom Weaver.

Yes

Well that is the last of my junk food for awhile. It's time to diet. I'm trying to decide if I want to start really getting serious and training on my bicycle to ride a couple days in the Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI). I've always wanted to ride a couple days, but have never really had the time. It's the week after I quit here, so no commitments. The only thing is I'd need to get in shape, they average 68 miles per day.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #189 on:** March 26, 2007, 12:22:48 PM »

It's a city on bicycles - 10,000 people cross the state in one week. I've been in the start cities and the over night cities a couple times, but never experienced the actual ride.

Here's a link to the website

Yeah, 68 miles on a bicycle per day would get you in shape.

It would give ME a heart attack, though.

singdaw · « **Reply #193 on:** March 26, 2007, 12:32:59 PM »

That's way cool, DR Cillaliz; I hope you go for it. But even if you do just a day or two, or even if you just consider it - there's no downside to that!

Techno-geek question for any DRs: Does anyone access this site via a Treo or Treo-like cell phone?

It will be time for me to get a new phone in a few months, and I'm wondering if I should spring for a plan that includes Internet - and whether you could access this site [satisfactorily] on a Treo or a Blackberry or such.

Exactly!

I was just informed I'll have to provide a photo to be included in an upcoming client presentation for work, so perhaps I'll join the avatar-changing trend! [kicking and screaming...]

DerBrucer - There are no bones to be picked about it. This board has made no secret of wanting career advancement for Cason. If it means we might have to watch him take his clothes off in order for us to be supportive, that's just the way it is.

Hey, I'll take all the help I can get at this point!

OMG, all these new avatars!

Maybe I'll dig up a photo from the year Der Brucer took that seafarer picture, but still - I kind of enjoy having Toby and Dylan as my avatar.

I'm the one to blame for der B's new avatar. We were in Austria at the time. Circa 1987/88, something like that.

How long have the two of you been together, anyway? If you don't mind my asking. It seems like it would be an estimable number of years.

DR Singdaw, check to see if the Treo uses Blazer as its web browser. I have a Palm TX that uses Blazer, and while it does access this here site very well, it does not allow for posting because the Submit button does not work. I've been looking for another browser to install but it seems a complicated affair.

And I mean that in the sense of "worthy of esteem", not "capable of being estimated."
