lets see.
I woke up, went to go to a friends house only to find that my daily driver was acting up, so I took my dad's chrysler to my friends, where I got like 7 movies.
once I got back from doing that I took the incentive to replace the entire radiator and cooling system (minus AC) in my car. Because that is actually the core of my problem with my my car is acting up so after I fixed that, I picked up my girlfriend and watched Inglorious basterds with her, took her home, spotted a leak on a hose I didn't connect right, clamped it with a hose clamp, spotted another leak coming from a transmission line and decided to wait until tomorrow to find some leak stopping stuffs.
eventful day no? :doh:

Played Axis and Allies Anniversary Edition last night with two other friends from 5 PM to 11 PM.(Yes I succumbed to the temptation but I think I got a good deal on it as I paid 'only' 135 bucks for it while Amazon is selling it for almost 550 bucks! and the crazy prices selling at bgg and ebay). At the worst I can sell it online and get back what I paid or even with a little margin.
Using custom rule I made myself

Been writing the custom rule, making it clearer and adding missing information and editing it in the morning on off for several hours. Planning to read the rulebook again. So basically nothing just a slow weekend.

Conducted a training flight for a guy who recently purchased an airplane.
Finished a book.
Made an entry into my Journal.
Went to a costume party.
Downloaded and installed "B-17 the mighty Eighth" out of sheer boredom and due to the fact that no game out there is filling in the WW2 Bomber gap sufficiently for me.

I just woke up so urinating, washing my hands and brushing my teeth are my only accomplishments for now.
Woke up here, sunday, thinking it was 7am, but the clocks went back so it was really 6.
Realised (as I do most mornings) that another utterly empty day stretched before me. There's 'stuff' to do, sure. But nothing that imparts any meaning to my solitary existence.

Similar to jumpy....woke up and realised the clocks went back an hour during the evening. Post on a few threads here then will get my kit together for another 24 hour turnaround shift commencing at 3pm but before that there is the local football derby to watch on Sky Sports....Newcastle v Sunderland...and the feeling in my bladder is defeatist one :doh:
Well that's about the best story I've read in this thread, are you going to take the job?:hmmm:
Well not really a job.
Don't know though, would require a bit to get enough tracks to be an effective DJ and I'm not sure if my connection would be strong enough to work for it, but we'll see.
Come from work for approx.45 minutes ago so it will be quiet the rest of this Sunday...
Got up coughing my guts up then took a shower and decided to cancel going out as its raining. Made myself a coffee then settled down for a double bill of Colditz followed by a light lunch then on to the Internet and here.
Was sober. :oWOW!:o miracles do happen then!:hmmm:
Today just started.
Yesterday we straightened up the house a little, did some last minute shopping, then cooked and did other stuff in preparation for my daughter's 7 year b-day party. Was a costume party for a mess of kids who ran around the house for 3 hours. then we went to a party at my brother in law's house (which was cool because my old college roommate was there from Boston).

Oh, about the usual, got up, went to work, overheard two work colleagues badmouthing me and confronted them separately later, both them blamed the other one. :haha: Busy shift, but a breakfast only one as usual, so back home before midday, did shopping, had dinner, now catching up on the usual web business. :shucks:

Visited a friend and his family.
Chatted with two girls online, dont know what i want so i will keep contact with both.
Watched a leftist documentary about a historical Finnish patriot that was portrayed as a facist and compared to Osama bin Laden. Sometimes i wonder why i have to pay for what Finnish broadcasting company airs.

Volunteered at my animal rescue foundation. I conducted four adoption interviews, adopted out one of our fosters and showcased the other three (9 week old Chocolate Lab/German Shepherd Dog mixes) . We got apps on all three so they should be going home next Sunday.

Today I've got up, fed my daughter, prepared step-son's packed lunch, kissed the wife goodbye (not permanently) checked subsim.com.
Taken step-daughter to school, visited my mum's with daugher, went home, put her to bed (daughter, not mum!) and checked subsim.com.
Made lunch, took daughter to child-minders, came to work, checked subsim.com.
Started work, currently procrastinating from creating somebody an excel spreadsheet and corresponding chart with one year's worth of data (as a favour!) or creating help files for our in-house program (which is my real job) - by checking out subsim.com.
