The Stall

Posted on 19 May 2008

I seem to be stalling a bit–doing everything else instead of writing this Blogless Lepolt entry.  That’s probably mostly because I can’t think of anything to say.
I did wind up putting a bit of time into practice last night.  I did not practice all that long, really, and I only practiced the one song; but [...]

Not Directly

Posted on 18 May 2008

I was late to the director’s meeting today, because we had an errand to run on the way which ran a bit late; but the meeting went reasonably well once I got there.
I did not accomplish much on my off day, other than taking some time to go over parts with Collision bass guitar player [...]

All the Time in Which World?

Posted on 16 May 2008

I need a new watch.  I mentioned in the game thread that the old watch whose stopwatch function was serving as dice had died; the stopwatch on the new watch goes to tenths only–I find it incredible that an electronic stopwatch would not measure hundredths of a second, but there it is.  Some of my [...]

Did I Fail to Mention

Posted on 15 May 2008

There was a disruption in my Tuesday night that might have been overlooked:  one of the female friends of one of my sons (not a girlfriend) called around three in the morning because she was maybe a mile away and her truck was making horrible noises and screaming that it was low on oil.  Since [...]

That Higher Level of Consciousness

Posted on 14 May 2008

I was rousted from bed this morning to deal with a problem.  This of course completely disrupted my day.  I involuntarily fell asleep in the afternoon, when the main part of the problem had been addressed and I was waiting to use the phone.  I was awakened by a hungry child needing dinner, and have [...]

Accidental Disruption

Posted on 13 May 2008

An automotive accident this morning disrupted life a bit.
No, I am fine, and the family is fine.  None of us were in the accident, and it did not involve our vehicles.  However, just as the last kid got on the bus an e-mail was received by a member of our household alerting us to the [...]

Not Sure What I’m Doing

Posted on 12 May 2008

The Saturn, the car with good gas mileage, has started losing coolant.  I’ve had to top it off a few times in recent weeks.  The problem is, I don’t know how fast it’s losing coolant–and this is complicated by the fact that the design of this vehicle does not include direct access to the radiator, [...]

Don’t Ask Why

Posted on 11 May 2008

Happy Mother’s Day.
I know of only one person who might be reading this blog who is a mother; however, it seems appropriate to convey those wishes generally and trust that she will take them personally for herself.
You might be wondering why I am posting this so early in the day.  Honestly, the question has been [...]

Stage Two

Posted on 09 May 2008

I was outside working on something with the kids, and there was this buzzing, some insect bothering my right ear.  I’m particularly nervous when I hear buzzing and cannot see what is causing it, because I don’t wish to be stung, and I’m not certain how to resolve the situation without taking that risk.  However, [...]

No Show Tonight

Posted on 08 May 2008

I’m not entirely happy at the moment, but here I am.
On the less than completely bright side, where I was less than completely bright, I did almost everything I intended last night–took the girlfriend home, dropped off the son, visited my friend, and finished the forum posts.  I even got the opinion of my experienced [...]
