Bad Habits
Tuesday, September 27th, 2005Um, yeah.
As I’m on the verge of dropping a land line and going cell-only for my telephone service, it’s not a good idea for me to forget where I left the phone.

Went out looking for stuff on a couple occasions today. Funny how there’s no sign of one of my favorite magazines in town. “It seems to be a bit more popular in the Fayetteville store. I think we get 3 a month here.”
100 copies of Being Redneck and Having Fun, and 3 lousy copies of [...]
Just not here.
There’s been some tornadic activity here and there in Arkansas, closest being about 25 miles from here. I had a bad feeling about this one and everything, already making a little shelter in a closet, ready with water and pillows and headphones to while away the time as I lay trapped under the [...]

Whew. Just got back this evening from a 2 day spur-of-the-moment trip to Bull Shoals. I helped Dan a bit with another webcam installation, this one on top of an Army Corps of Engineers dam.

My dear Iowa state Alumni MBNA card is the worst. I’ll decline telling of the rate for fear of embarrassment by how much I’m [...]

I’m re-filtering my boxes of junk yet again, as I prepare for a drastic loss of storage and living space.
After keeping it in ever-increasingly tattered form, I finally threw away my 12 year old acceptance letter to American. I guess I always kept it as a reminder of what could have been. That there was [...]
Back this weekend after being gone from Tuesday to Friday working on mounting a wirelessly-transmitting webcam under a high bridge to show beautiful river views. Nothing like spending 5-6 hours total leaning over concrete railings on your knees. Yum.
But the result is spectacular, and the antenna has way more power than we had [...]
