Podcast! Cleaning! Penelope! Ghost!

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:47 pm  

Had about 1/4″ of rain yesterday.

This morning I recorded! I’m working on adding at least eight episodes to a collection for June and July when I don’t have a chance to yell at a tape deck.

This edition is called “Minimum Underdrive!” Soon to be released!

It was beautiful at Evergreen Lake.

Watered my plants. I keep bringing more inside. They just get beat up outside.

Of course the orchids are inside plants.

After recording I did the shopping. Decided to try Folgers rather than the brand I’ve been buying from Amazon. Just to see if I can taste a difference. My guess is probably not. We’ll see!

Cleaned the house for a couple of hours.

Vacuumed.

Mopped the kitchen. I like the Swiffer!

I immediately dry the floor with a towel after cleaning. Otherwise it’s a slippery danger!

Swept downstairs.

And my zebra rug.

And the other rugs.

And outside on my outdoor carpet.

Mopped there, too!

My room seems nice and clean and shiny.

I had planned on repairing a small crack on one of my exterior walls. Now that it’s warm, the crack has closed and the sealant I put in the winter has actually squeezed out. Interesting!

Cleaned my fish tank. It’ll look crystal clear once the debris has settled.

Watched Penelope for a few hours. She’s always so awesome and makes me feel good at a deep level. I sure need that!

We played with big bubbles. I’m trying to teach her “Bubble Juggling” with my hand held fans.

Also been teaching her how to use the microphone. I have a Shure SM58 hooked up to a little Fender amp. She seems to be a natural!

Went out and ate “real food.” I’ve been living on salads and fruit for a while now. I still eat some eggs or a a sandwich for protein. Had some steak and fish this evening. But still mainly vegetables. I thought it was interesting at Golden Corral how ever food had the calories per portion. Never noticed that before.

Treated myself to a movie tonight. Been looking forward to “Ghost in the Shell.”

Very interesting movie. Kind of a blend between Blade Runner, the Matrix and Equilibrium. I found it especially fascinating since reading an article on Neuralink that Elon Musk is creating. Click on the title to take you to the article!

I’ve been reading the book, “How Emotions Are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain.” Very interesting but puts into question the work of Paul Eckman. I’ve been a student of body language for years.

Admin duties now.

I liked this tree.
