05/08/2006 23:18:17 Jim Went shopping. I must love returning items. | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
Bought a vanity. It was cracked. Had to take it back. We installed the new one, but it didn't have a faucet. :( Bought a bathtub spout. But it didn't fit. Had to take it back. Sound like a pattern? It happens everytime I do house repairs. Trips back and forth take more time than the installation. |
05/08/2006 04:08:04 Jim Still feeling badly | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
I took a couple of those pharmacudical uplifters. They finally kicked in around 10pm. Now it's late! ANYWAY... I cut the top and bottom channels for the condo's closets. They look good. I straightened up the tool room. It seemed unfair that I'm getting Sonny to throw away his junk, while I'm keeping mine. The room's clean now, but its poorly organized. Becky was feeling bad today. She did a lot of work last night help Robert move. |
05/07/2006 06:23:47 Jim My eyes itch, my skin feels itch | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
I feel tired. Exhausted even. My breathing is labored, and I feel like someone is sitting on my chest. Damn, I'm tired of feeling run down. |
05/06/2006 23:11:38 Jim Robert moved today | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
Becky help him move his stuff up the stairs. I was just to drained to help. |
05/06/2006 21:57:30 Jim Robert and Joy moved out today | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
We picked up the Uhaul. Robert loaded it up, and unloaded it. Becky helped him some. I didn't help cause I'm already in enough trouble with my health. (I'll be glad when/if this finally clears up). |

Big vacation ends. |
05/01/2006 20:03:05 Jim If I am never to get any better | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
If these bad health issues I'm having are a signal of an end coming, I got to say, I'm not afraid. In the end, we all must realize everything we did, all the things we believed, and all we held true, were myths. Life is just a box of dreams. None of this can be proven to be real. If the present is more real than the future, and the past is more real than the present, but the past is just a memory, then this is all a dream. |

I woke up at 8am. Took a shower checked on the baby sparrow. He's still hanging on so cute. Sonny got home 8:40am. I want you to know babe that I will do anything for you we are a team working together. I know that you are so sweet. I'm here for you. I love you so much. How was your night? I heard you wheezing when I got up. I will see you when you get up. LOVE YOU BECKY |

Hi babe I had a great time tonight. Hush Puppy's was very nice. It was nice seeing Red Rock, Blue Diamond. I Love you sooooooo much. Becky |
04/21/2006 00:29:33 Jim Fixed the stove | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
Stoves - Its amazing people have survived as a species. The stove (standard) changed sometime ago. I've been to 3 places and spend more than 8 hours, just looking for adapters to make a stupid gas hose work. Sometime ago, the standard changed from 1/2" to 9/16's of an inch. Thats a 1/16th inch difference. That makes no since to me...AT ALL. Bonnie Springs - toyed with the peacocks. There menu was very basic for dinner. Red Rock Casino - didn't go in though, it was packed. I can't imagine why people out there complained about a casino near Red Rock Canyon. There's a Best Buy closer to the canyon. Hush Puppies - Our waitress was tweeking. |

04/19/2006 13:29:47 Jim Cobol Jobs | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
After say yea to a recruiter this morning for a job in New Hampshire, I decided to read up on Cobol jobs. Apparently, there are still quite a few of them out there. The recommendation is to send your resume to the CIO's of the top Fortune 1000 companies. Cobol programmers are retiring, but their applications are still the heart beat of many companies. |
04/19/2006 07:46:06 Jim The garbage men just came | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Cory, my east neighbor, once again filled up my dumpster on the first day. He often just sets the trash out on the side walk next to the dumpster. That pisses me off so bad! He could more easily put his trash bags on the side walk in front of his house, but instead, he chooses to make me look like a pig. I got down on him yesterday about it. The worst thing Cory has ever done to me was to put a wet trash can full of shit next to the dumpster. He's just a stupid man. He's got no consideration for others. His dogs destroyed my fence. Rather than fixing the fence, he built a crappy one inside his yard. The dogs still managed to get out, and they chewed up my antenna wiring. |
04/19/2006 07:18:40 Jim 6am - Terrible Asthma Attack | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Its terrible! I slept for 4 hours just to wake up feeling like I was dieing. I tried the inhalers, and the Las Vegas mix drops. Just sitting up helps a lot though. I feel so pathetic. |

I love you too babe |
04/18/2006 06:59:51 Jim Our desires seem so simple | Tue |||||||||||||||||||
Our desires center around our need to procreate. We want young women because they are best suited to carry our offspring. There's nothing wrong with that, its nature's way. Males seek mates with what they consider healthiest characteristics. Women with less attractive characteristics mate with men of the same like. Men with less attractive characteristics tend to force women to mate that have healthier characteristics. These are natures techniques for genetically mutating a species. No psychiatrist or geneticist could deny that our desires are programmed through instinct. Apparently, nature likes to throw the dice. It can take generations to make dramatic changes in a species. Its hard to understand why people deny their own nature. I suppose it has a lot to do comfort levels. It was nice to hear someone say what I've always thought about religion Last night, someone on TV said, "This person brainwashed her child into believing generations of lies, all while telling her she did it because she loved her". |
04/15/2006 22:22:33 Jim Another day shot to hell | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
Kind of. Joe the tree trimmer trimmed the palm trees. Chuck came by. |
04/15/2006 05:42:01 Jim Hooked the laptop up to the projector | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
Its fuzzy, but it works. For some reason, XP will let you extend your windows screen, but it doesn't let you show the main portion of the screen on the external monitor. We went driving around, watched planes take off and land at the airport. It was thundering. The planes arrive at a rate of around 1 every 5 minutes. Watching them land in high winds is scary. Southcoast Station. Big. We couldn't believe how much this town has grown in the south. |
04/13/2006 13:02:39 Jim Trimmed Squirt | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Becky felt sick, so we stopped. I'm pooped and I've barely done anything today. We've gotta get out of here. |
04/11/2006 21:59:50 Jim Built a dog runway for Squirt | Tue |||||||||||||||||||
Its much nicer than the old one. Now we can actually use the back yard again ourselves. Sonny, Becky and I ate IHop. There food is JUST Great! Later we watched Wolf Creek (sucked badly) and Cave-In (sucked). |
04/10/2006 21:32:17 Jim Retoured the Lake Mead area | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
We ate dinner down at the Las Vegas Marina (I think thats its name). The restaurant had a very basic menu. They were closing at 6pm and could hardly wait for us to leave. It was odd. Afterwards, we scurried down to Boulder Beach. Its aptly named. You need shoes to walk on it. Its odd how they tout this as a beach. In Daytona, we noticed that they actually bring sand to the shore for people to walk on. They should do that at Lake Mead. The Marina at Boulder Beach is much nicer. The restaurant looks oodles better. You can rent a tiny boat for $30 an hour, party boat for $40, a speed boat for $50 and a wave runner for $65 (all two hour minimum). Also, the Desert Princess offers a pizza tour 4pm daily that runs up to Hoover Dam and back. |

04/06/2006 11:04:37 Jim Why has medical technology done little to improve | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
I've been reading about gastro intestinal problems. The esophagus, mouth, teeth, tongue...their purpose is for eating. It seems to me that they are necessary for animals. But, we aren't stupid animals. All of the above could be replaced by introducing baby food right directly into the stomach. I could have done it with the plastic tube I ran down to my stomach. It also seems to me that if you knew what the head needed from the blood, you could keep a head alive by supplying it externally. I'd be surprised if someone hasn't that done that yet. |
