Combination of Tuesday night and Wednesday.

Tuesday night when I got home from work I just lounged around and played at Pogo. When my time limit (I set that for myself) was up I shut everything down and got ready to watch something on TV so that I could go to sleep. I turned on the satellite and the TV. There was no picture, just fuzz. So I started looking around at all the cords, cables, wires, and what not to see if I could determine what the problem was. I found on cable that had come unhooked. So I plugged it back into the socket that it belonged in. Now I have a picture but no sound. I put a DVD in to check if I could get sound. I had sound there but that is through the surround sound receiver so it did not take a rocket scientist to figure out that this finding was useless. Yet I still had no sound.

We have already had to replace a receiver so I was thinking that this one might be shot too. I was nosing around and for some reason I decided to pull the access card out. I looked at it; I checked the number to see if it matched what the screen was showing. Okay it matches so I slid the card back into the slot. Some downloading message came up. I thought that I had messed something up by pulling the card out. But when the download was done I had sound.

It took me almost two hours to get my sound back so needless to say I was up until the wee hours of the morning. When my alarm went off it felt like I had just gotten to sleep.

This is not a good feeling knowing that I would not be able to take a nap in the afternoon. I had to do the banking and I opened. I was fine until I had to deal blackjack. I have been at it so long that it is really boring for me. Then add players that either do not know how to hold a conversation or just do not want to hold a conversation. You get one sleepy dealer! Me! I know that I am bored but I just tell them “this is my normal naptime.” I guess it would be quite rude to say “you are boring the hell out of me.”

At least I got to come home early. I do not feel as tired as I did earlier so here I sit writing an entry.

Now that I have bee-bopped around the Internet a little bit it feels like it should be really late but it is not even midnight yet. I don’t have to get up in the morning and tomorrow is my day off.

I am going to the basketball game tomorrow. I should be going to parent-teacher conferences but I’m not unless Tyler’s teacher re-scheduled me for a later time. I had to check his planner. She did give us the choice of four other time slots. Dick chose one so I assume that he is going to the conference. It is his turn to go anyway ~ I went last time. I just have a bad feeling about this one and of course if it is bad I will be the blame. I will be blamed for it because I am the one trying to get to work on time when they get off the bus.

I am closing on that note. It seems that I am starting to be in a negative mood and I don’t want to go there! Later!
