I’m not sure what I did today. Went to the gym, ate pierogi, made sure a wireless keyboard worked with my friend’s daughter’s Netbook, and watched some TV. It’s a holiday.

I am using my HD DVR to record ever possible episode of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives (and Good Eats for that matter) and even after having a steak for dinner, the show made me hungry for some greasy food. I’m wondering if I’ll gain weight just by watching the TV. Ah, well, I’m not going to travel to many of the places he goes to, I’m sure (I’ve been to two, as far as I can tell) so I should be OK. Then again, I finally found and ate some pierogi today and it was pretty good. I may find a method of self-sabotage that doesn’t require any help from Guy Fieri.

So I still have all those channels with very very little to see, but I’ve found TWO movies this whole weekend that seemed worth recording. Oddly enough, I’ve been way too busy to watch them and now I’m staying up late to finish watching them. No Country for Old Men was as good as I thought and now I’m watching Speed Racer. I never heard anything good about it, and it’s fantastic.

I was in the attic for most of the day, putting in another outlet, a network connection, and a phone connection, all so I can hook up my DirecTV upstairs. It’s ALMOST working. I just have to get the network working and I think I can get it going without too much trouble, but that’ll take yet another trip to the hardware store. Good thing I’m a guy and I like hardware stores.

Well, time to stay up too late watching Speed Racer. I needs me some more cheese!
