Next on my list...

Band practice - okay, but some IEM 'distortion' and strange settings on the board. Apparently, someone's gotten 'happy' with the trim controls on the mixer. -sigh- Pass this along to anyone you see on the board: Don't touch the trim. It's set. You crank it without checking the ACTUAL (not perceived) signal strength against the meters on the board itself, you mess EVERYTHING up. Besides...you can only make someone sing so loud ;-).

-Rant: complete-

"Warning: The pollen forecast for your area is high." (from Weather.com). Oh, good. So that's what's wrong with me. What kind of pollen? Ragweed. Okay, I'm no gardener, but what the heck is a ragweed? I'm allergic to just the name of that plant.

Mmm...french toast for dinner. With eggs (sunny side up), and bacon... I love Cracker Barrel breakfast food. However, apparently Kailyn agreed with Kyle (see his blog) that the mac'n'cheese was terrible, 'cause she hardly touched it. However, she does like bacon, judging from the fact that she ate much of mine (You can only take so much of a 2-year-old saying, "Bite, bite, bite, bite" over and over before you give in). From now on, 'wrap those boys in bacon.' Errr...whatever that means...

My parental units should arrive sometime today. Should be good, but I'm a bit overwhelmed by the house-cleaning project I'm undertaking. With repeated bouts of nausea and excessive tiredness, Stacey's not been much help in that area. That's okay, though, since she might argue that's how I am all the time (not much help, that is, as opposed to nauseous and tired).

On a side note, I saw a special on The History Channel (don't laugh, THC rocks!) about tornadoes, which included a lot of info about the F5 tornado in the 1930s that destroyed much of Gainesville, GA. I've heard the story a lot growing up, but not on TV. My grandmother was in college in Gainesville at the time, and she survived the storm, though the campus she was at suffered extensive damage. Still, she never told us just how many people died in that storm: 190. I know she knew some people who died. Guess she just preferred talking about how fortunate she was to survive rather than who didn't. But I digress...

Now, when will that TV repair dude call me?
