God - it's been over a month since I last wrote! Where has the time gone? Well, Darcy and I hosted a party in early September that was fun. We flew up to Saskatoon for Darcy's interview at the U of Saskatchewan. It was my first trip to Saskatchewan and I enjoyed it. The city reminded me of a much smaller Edmonton - more laid back. Darcy's interview seemed pretty tough (see her
blog for details. If she gets the job I would apply to grad school and would hope that I would get accepted and then hope that a job turns up in a couple of years. The whole thing is speculation right now so we'll see what happens in about a week.
Enterprise debuted last week - T'Pol had a minor cosemetic change but the story didn't jump out at me. I'll continue to watch and tape each episode but this will likely be another dull season. I bought a used workout bench and is in great condition. My lower back/upper neck feels better since my major injury a couple of weeks ago. But I've only worked out twice since and still feel twinges of discomfort. Have to slowly get back into the groove of things. I'm still suffering from jet lag and may not have enough energy to work out tonight. I work 1-9 tomorrow and may have a light work out in the morning. I mailed all copies of my grandfather's book from the two boxes. It cost about $100.00 a box to do it. I didn't mind doing it but the cost is a bit steep. At least I pretty much saturated Idaho public libraries with the book. I've got a few thank you notes and emails. I just checked the book's OCLC record and nine libraries are listed with many more to come.
I'm playing online chess with Darcy's Dad and am not faring too well right now. I'm down two points and I've been in a defensive mode for quite a while. I may end up being 0 for 2 soon. Dante has given me a couple of Bruce Lee books to read. An amazing guy. I wish I had time to read his philosophical works in detail. Maybe one day. Well, I'm going home now. Later...
