Microsoft Keynote At CES
After some on-and-off viewing of press videos during the day from CES, which opens to the public tomorrow, I watched the live, online keynote address by Steve Ballmer. Except for maybe a few minutes of the Xbox 360 presentation (which I don’t play or even own), I would have to say that it was one of the …

Christmas Dinner At Last!
Finally had our Christmas dinner with all the local family members together in one place. We had meat for protein, potatoes for starch, rice for carbs, salad for iron and beans for gas. After a delightful rendition of “Oh Holy Night” in eight part butt harmony, we all sat down for a game of “Apples …

Calendars Added To The Fold
Thanks to a generous Christmas gift card for Amazon.com from my brother I ordered SIX MORE CALENDARS! Only two more to go and my training will be complete. Can I get a monthly hallelujah from the yearly congregation?

Gaming At Billata’s
My mom, Kimi my niece and I drove over to my sister Beata’s house this afternoon for an hour of fun and frolic, post-Christmas style, with her, Bill and Aidan. We snacked on assorted nuts and orange slices while playing “Apples to Apples” with no real interest in who would win, but more as to …

Christmas for Kimi
My niece, Kimi, came over today for a much belated Christmas lunch/present opening. The midday meal d’jour was spaghetti with garlic bread. Doesn’t that just scream Christmas? This past holiday season has probably been the most disjointed one that I have ever “celebrated.” And it’s not over yet. Tomorrow will be one more lunch with my nephew. …

Post Lunch Ferry Landing Stroll
After enjoying lunch at the Burger Lounge, I drove over to the Coronado Ferry Landing to do a bit of solo strolling and picture taking. Even though I’ve taken many shots from here before, I never give a up a chance to take some more. It is hands down the best place to get shots …

Lounging On Burgers
Met my friends Sylvia, Mary and her husband Dave at the Burger Lounge in Coronado. Heard good things about the joint. It was quite small and cramped but the food was very good. They did get a little bit of the order wrong, but it wasn’t worth mentioning. The food might be worth going back …

Belated Mini Christmas
Had a sort of belated mini Christmas this evening with my mom and my sister, who brought over Taco Bell for dinner, which made my mom really happy. It’s her favorite Mexican restaurant. After dinner we sat down and opened a few presents. I received a few calendars which almost immediately found places in my …

First SeaWorld Visit Of The New Year
Took my mom walking at SeaWorld today for our first of hopefully many visits to come. We ran into some friends, Paul and Shirley, that we made from back in the Terrific Tuesdays days. My mom was hoping to run into them to find out how Shirley’s hip-replacement surgery went. My God, when did my …

RIP Richard
Just received word that my friend, Richard Alf, who I went to see yesterday in a care facility, died today. He was one of the original group of comic book fans that Shel Dorf had brought together to create the San Diego Comic Convention. Judging by the outpouring of support from friends around the world, …

New Mahjong High Score
After doing my citizenry dutieship with the SOPA petition, I gifted myself the opportunity to play the wonderful (and free) Moonlight Mahjong 3D game and came away achieving a new high score with the proud ranking of Gazelle. Tonight I have impressed myself, but it will not last for tomorrow reality, the lion to my …

Did My Part To Stop SOPA And PIPA
As much as I hate what politics has turned into, world-wide, not just in the US, I created an account on the White House website to be able to sign one specific petition asking President Obama to veto SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act), PIPA (Protect IP Act) or any other Internet censoring laws that Congress …

Cockchafer
Did me some weed-pullin’ today and came across this little critter (and two more just like it) curled up in the dirt under a pot that was sittin’ on the lawn. I’m bettin’ that this is what the skunks and opossums come diggin’ for at night. It’s officially known as a White Curl Grub, Scarab …

Coffee and Calendars
After visiting Richard, I drove over to University Town Center (where I noticed some major demolition of the old Robinson’s department store going on) to perk up my sullen mood by picking up as many half-price calendars that I could find from my list. It was a good haul, scoring seven of them. Sat down …

My Last Time With Richard
Went to see my friend Richard again today, for his final day at the rehab center. His friends Paul Sammon and Mike Towry were there again as well and Earl, who Richard will be staying with starting tomorrow, also came by to talk to the hospice representatives. I’m fairly certain that this will have been …
