Alot was accomplished today. I have a new ceiling fan in the room from which I am currently typing. My little video project may have at last reached completion. I went to a graduation party. And I had Clam Chowder for dinner at a Fireman's benefit in Glenmont. Oh, and the milk started to smell.

The theme of today was taking a chance, and my results were varied. I took a chance by calling about a party I had forgotten to RSVP for, and that was a wonderful time. I took a chance on the Fireman's thing and that was less wonderful but still worthwhile. And my dad is peeing one door down as I type. Ah, the twinkle has ended.

I also watched a shitload of "Reno, 911." Damned good show, but I hate the commercials. Finally sat through the whole end credits of Superman: The Movie, which was airing on TCM. Made me realize how much filmmaking has changed. If you compared the credits of a blockbuster made in the last year or so to Superman: The Movie, I wouldn't be surprised if there was less than a third overlap in job titles. It's a whole new behind the scenes medium.

Every now and again, I have positive people moments that refute the overwhelming tide of disgust with the current batch of humanity. Such moments are holding less and less sway.

I really should starting writing these earlier unless I can sleep in the next day. Oh, well; good bye for now. Raindrops patter on the roof of my garage. Next time you have a sunny day, by God, open some windows! I'll be sleeping with the fan on tonight, but it's a poor substitute for a good healthy breeze.
