Ron, I'm wondering if your mother's medications might be causing mood swings. Can you ask her doctors about this? It may be, too, that just knowing that you want her to get back to where she was and feel that she can do it inspired her.

Vibes that her moods stabilize and she does well in rehab, and that things are easier for you, too.

Back from a really good and really filling and really fun farewell dinner with Sami and mom.  I'll sure miss her doing our shows and just in general.  She's been so much a part of the past six years and watching her grow and blossom has been more gratifying than I can say.  I think she has a fun photo from tonight, which I'll put in the notes should I get it.

Otherwise, I've spent every other minute of the day trying to upload the uncompressed files of both Outside the Box seasons - very frustrating and just taking forever.  Actually about a third of them went in fairly quickly, in three or four minutes - others took fifteen to twenty minutes.  My computer was completely spazzing out during this and I had to shut down, call Apple, refresh the whole operating system and it's been better but am still only on episode four of season two - so that and two more and it will be done.  But even though they appear to be there, it's taking a lot of time for them to actually finish whatever they're doing in dropbox.  Only one of season one has a green check mark, so despite the others loading in they're still doing some kind of processing.  Anyway, will get the rest done but I haven't had one second to start another set of liner notes.

To give an example - to upload episode two took three minutes.  Episode three just took fourteen minutes.  Episode four, it's telling me twenty-seven minutes.  Just nuts in that they're all the same size.

Episode five - fifty-three minutes.  Madness.

Episode six now uploading - thirty more minutes, although the last couple haven't taken as long as predicted so hopefully that will be the case here.

I'm quite full of food.  I had my New York, a salad, some lobster mac-and-cheese, bread, and a few bites of creme brulee - three meals in one.

George, you seem to be closing in on 74000!

Thanks for letting me know, Fred!  I actually hadn't noticed!

There was a hilarious article in the Washington Post about supposedly the worst book ever written. It's called Irene Iddesleigh and it was written in the late 1800s, self-published and supposedly atrocious. I couldn't resist. I got it on my Kindle for free. I hope I can start it this week.

Very interesting!  I just bought it.  I've gotten a few historical books from Amazon ;) over the years (some even free), but haven't read many of them.

The Mail program on my computer is not working at ALL.  I can see on the phone that I have six new e-mails, not a one of which has shown up.  Additionally, it won't send, it won't delete, nada.  I've quit out of it numerous times and nothing fixes it so that's another call to Apple in the morning.  How annoying.

Now, that's tragic!

Well, I hate to do (no, I REALLY do!), but I must go to bed now.  I'm going on a field trip to Puyallup for work tomorrow for our computer system's NW User Group Meeting.  Last year's meeting was quite boring and completely unnecessary.  Hopefully, tomorrow's won't be.

If we were not having enough smoke problems, tonight in Shelton (south, near Olympia) has a huge tire fire that is spewing toxic smoke around the area.

Citizens are being encouraged to close all windows, turn off their air conditioners, and hunker down in place.  The fire is expected to burn for another 12 hours.

For some reason, it was not very good this time.

Our newest member ordered pizza, only because I talked it up, and he didn’t like it at all.

It appeared to be the same cook, as usual.

He used to play them every night, but he hasn’t been playing them lately.

Mail is finally working properly.  Perhaps it was an AOL thing, but I doubt it.  I think somehow it has something to do with mail servers.
