Weight: 219.0 lbs.

Today I am writing this on my new laptop! Yesterday we actually won at the casino, and ended up heading to Best Buy with cash on hand and got the laptopt of my dreams. Actually, although we did extremely well yesterday, and had the unusual experience of winning on most machines we touched, we were less up than at one point earlier in, but still came hope significantly ahead. What a pleasure to pay cash for this computer!

On the other hand, there is nothing I hate more than the setting up and configuring of things, and were it not for our friend Dennis coming over early this morning to help, we would probably never be able to even use this thing.

In other more relevent news, I did get overly hungry while at the casino yesterday, as we waiting too many hours before eating due to our pre-dinner winning streak. Once let loose in the buffet, I did some damage, and even went for a small piece of pumpkin pie for dessert. But, once again, I have hardly gained - although perhaps I could be losing as I’m sure I ought to be.

Well, there’s always tomorrow to do better by things, and today is yesterday’s tomorrow, and I worked out twice as hard this morning and have eaten well thus far, so hopefully I am already repenting properly for my dietary sins.

Today otherwise is gearing up to be focused on tech. issues and cleaning out our computer room and files etc. I was supposed to do lunch with a cousin, but she called last night to cancel. I fear that I will be buggy before the day is out as I can only stand both being in all day AND tech. stuff for so long, before fraying. So, I can foresee that Tom and I may choose to head out either for dinner or something social before the day is over. Tomorrow we will be gone from early until late as we are headed out with our long lost friend and to attend a benefit for a cat charity that we belong to. We are planning to eat out with Rose enroute, and I may suggest we go to Danny’s for their soup and salad bar etc., as Rose is a vegetarian and I am well, a pain. Plus, Tom loves it there and it is a familiar and safe bet.

Nothing else to speak of this rather gloomy and boring Saturday, so why bother to drivel on here! Happy weekend to all!
