a day of rest

I was fortunate enough to sleep in late today. I didn’t get up till around 11am and that’s really sleeping in late for me. I actually had breakfast today too, since I haven’t done that in a long while and it really wasn’t even a breakfast for me because it was already around noon time. I guess that would be more of a brunch than anything.

I didn’t do much today than stay in front of the computer updating my xanga to catch up and to write e-mails. I wrote a lot more today than I did before, but I’m not even near finishing writing all the e-mails that I want to write. My goal for this summer is to write an e-mail to all my friends, just to let them know I’m alive and for them to let me know that they are alive and well. I think that’s how people lose friends, when they just simply lose touch. So I’ve got to make that extra effort to get them to talk a little bit.

I managed to take care of my laundry and dry clean today. I mean it wasn’t so bad that I needed to do it, but it’s just something that needed to be done sooner or later. Since I’ll be busy for the rest of the next two weeks, I took care of some of those things today. I didn’t get a chance to vacuum the place, but that’s on tomorrow’s list. I also need to go to the bank tomorrow so I can get some dinero, which seems to be disappearing faster than it did before. I have to take out more than I really need to be, and I’m not sure where it all goes. I know that this month I’ll be traveling so that’s why I need to get some cash, but then I don’t have any left other than that.

I also gave myself a haircut today too. I really didn’t need to since my hair was already short, but since it’ll be another two weeks before I get the opportunity and I’ll be in Okinawa, I wanted to give my head some natural air conditioning. I’ve heard that Okinawa at this time of the year is really hot and humid, which doesn’t sound the least bit fun. But then it’s a tropical island, so I’ll be swimming a lot and near the beaches. Oh yeah, if you want me to send you a post card or something, let me know your address so I can do that. I’ll probably be sending the next round of those soon, but don’t really know how soon.

I’m having space problems on my C drive of my computer. It seems that Microsoft had loaded a hell of a lot of stuff on my hard drives in patches and Windows itself. I practically don’t have any more space for anything else. But in my D and E drives I’ve got gigabytes of space, it’s just on the main drive that has run out. I’m thinking about emptying everything on my computer to start brand new, but then I’d be missing some things and probably those would be the things that I needed the most. I’ve been trying to resolve that problem all day, but everything that’s on my C drive is necessary for the machine to function. I didn’t like the way that my drives were partitioned since it wasn’t even at all.

I didn’t sleep well again because of a mosquito. It was very annoying because I couldn’t get any sleep tonight. I didn’t get a wink of sleep, although I tried. I got bit one time and it was on, I was going to kill that mofo. I’m not sure that I ended up killing that mofo, but I’m sure I scared the living daylights out of it. I whacked that sucker a few times with my daily planner and I couldn’t see the remains, but I’m pretty sure it’s dead. I ended up going to sleep around 8am in the morning after talking to my sister for a little bit.
