First things first...

Happy
Birthday
JD!!!

Twenty-four. I'm amazed... and pleased.


Another nice night... that's two in a row. I'm amazed and pleased about that, too.

I even got bored. Took some more pictures of the spider in her web out by the ambulance bay. Played with the digital camera a lot. Found out that it did better than the 640X480... it will do 1024X7??. I hadn't played with it enough, I don't know why.

I went up the the eighth floor and took some pix of the sun rising over the Topeka skyline, such as it is.

And the mamma spider... she's been doing business in the same location for two months at least. Her web is between a bush and a light-pole, and covers about a six-by-three foot area. The web has been fragmented several times, but she always puts it back. Good location. She's fat and presumably happy.

I really am into appreciating boredom lately, the last two nights anyway. I'm sure that this won't last, though, but I would be happy if it would.

Strange thing... even though I didn't really work very hard, I still got really tired. I do a lot of walking around when I'm bored, looking for people to talk to. Most of the people that I talked to were pretty boring, though.... they are worn out from the recent spate of busy nights.

Anyway... more tomorrow. JD, I'm gonna call you tonight if I get up early enough...


Thanx for being here!
