poor sick jen…

Saturday, July 24th, 2004

Poor Jen! She had food poisoning last week, and as soon as she got better got some kind of bug, and has had an upset stomach for the last few days….. Meanwhile my extra back strain from last night hasn’t gone away yet either, and although it’s much better already, I’m still knocked […]

They Think They’re Newsworthy…. 7/24/04

sore again

Friday, July 23rd, 2004

Well my back, on the whole, is much much better. But it’s pretty sore right now, after I mowed the lawn earlier this evening. It sure needed it, though! And it was the perfect weather for mowing (compared to the other options the last couple of weeks, anyway). After days and […]

cnn coincidence

Friday, July 23rd, 2004

At first I thought I was just tired, and then I realized I really was looking at my name in CNN.com article! Ok, so it’s not me, it’s another 26-year-old David, whose last name is “Wood” instead of “Woods” — but if the apostrophe was just on the other side of the ’s’, even […]

Samuel Barber’s Adagio for Strings really has to be just about the most beautiful thing ever written….

20% of goal

Thursday, July 22nd, 2004

Well, after stalling for a few days, my weight loss is back on track! (I also took a four mile walk last night, instead of normal two!) I’m now at 216.0, just over 10 pounds down, or 20% of the way to my goal.
I’ve altered my plan a little. Like […]

Funny wrong number

Wednesday, July 21st, 2004

Me: Hello?
Tanya: Hi, this is Tanya.
Me: ?
Tanya: Who is this?
Me: This is David.
Tanya: Hi David, is your mother there?
Me: ?? My mother is in Virginia….
Tanya: Oh really! I didn’t know she was going to Virginia!
Me: ??? She lives there….
Tanya: ?????
It turns […]

Dry weather

Tuesday, July 20th, 2004

It’s been a while since it rained — and other than two days of ‘isolated t-storms’ this week (not likely to get too much rain from those), it doesn’t look like there will be much in the near future either. I was going through the hose equipment that the previous owners left behind, and […]

Ooh! Ren Fest!

Monday, July 19th, 2004

Ooh, now I’m getting even more excited! The theme for this year’s Rennaisance Festival here in the KC area is “The Pirate’s Revenge” — cool! I bet this means that the Jolly Rogers will be there — a fun pirate band that played there a couple of years ago when my Chicago friends […]

Killy does the impossible

Sunday, July 18th, 2004

Killy is an exceptional baby. He’s held his head up on his own since he was one day old. He could (sans balance) support his own weight with his legs around his first month. He sleeps up to six hours a night now, at two months. And he has aspirations on […]
