Sunday Recap

Well it's Sunday, which means that it's the birth of another week. Today my wife and I slept in till 11:00AM. Felt great.

Then I woke up and got to work on the novel. I don't want to be one of these douche-bags that's always talking about his "novel" but I want to make sure people know that I've not given up on this thing. After taking it easy for most of the morning, Leah decided to take a walk. So the three of us (yes, Rusty went too) walked to the Delmar Loop. They did pretty good--neither of them complained too loudly, but they were really tuckered out. Rusty, in fact, has yet to recover fully from the ordeal. I think it's the most he's been out for a long while. We're going to do it again real soon (I hope).

My uncle called, which was cool. I don't really ever hear from my family very much (other than my parents and Amber).

Just finished watching THE SIMPSONS and FAMILY GUY--which constitutes all the TV I watch anymore. Speaking of which, Leah broke down and got us cable. We're doing AT&T's "U-Verse" which is high-speed Internet and cable. Part of me is happy/excited about this (it's going to be connected at the end of the month), and part of me is worried. I'm worried about having yet ANOTHER distraction and, of course another monthly bill. Anyway, we'll see if we keep it or not.

That's about it. Leah and I are excited, this Tuesday is our Kooks concert. Stay tunned for that!

I haven't said anything about my novel projects because, well, I'm busy writing lectures.

Keep at it, man. November is coming. Perfect time to revise or start something new.

Go get 'em.

Ha! I just knew a lot of people in my English classes who were always "talking" about how they were writing a novel, but never seemed to get it finished.

Many people like to shoot their mouths off to seem "cool" or "literary" or whatever.

Plus there are a few people who lurk here, who know I'm working on a book and frankly give me a "yeah right" kinda-vibe. I'm not sure why I care about such people, but I do (screw you!).

Anyway, I'm excited and worried about November.

have leah talk to the U-Verse people..
they had a promotion where the first month of their TV is free..

and then if you like it, and keep it for at least 1 more month you get $200 in rebates.

and if you decide after the 2nd month to turn it off, you get to keep the $200. (we didn't bother with the money since we didn't have the room in the budget to float the cost for the 4 to 6 weeks it'd take for the rebates to show.)

Well that sounds like a pretty perfect way to spend a Sunday - and so much better than mine! I did my nigth shift on Saturday went home, tried to get as much sleep as I could in the 8 hours I have available before turnign around and going back to work for my 12 hour shift.
