Go Banana!

Well it is another update for the day. Just a few little notes.

1) Direct TV is not coming today. Nor do I get to take advantage of the offer they had going to upgrade to HD for free. As it turns out the HD signal requires a different dish, a dish that is too heavy to be mounted on a tripod. And seeing as how I live in an apartment complex that requires dishes on a tripod, there will be no HD. They have rescheduled to Tuesday evening and I will be getting a regular size dish and receiver. Though I need to contact them again and see if I can get the DVR receiver for free....

2)Gila Monsters meant me at the airport. Sort of. The El Paso Airport has this nice carpet featuring Gila Monsters. I haven't spotted any real life gila monsters, but the carpet ones where there waiting for me.

3)Thank you all for the mail. I have gotten to read through it all. And I would like to thank everyone that chose to send me mail. I do hope that all the Halloween cards got to where they were headed. Due to travels and such it looks like I will not be sending out thanksgiving cards, but soon Christmas cards will be headed your way.

4) It is nice an warm here. To give you an idea of the weather that I get for this time of the year, when I woke up it was in the mid 30's. Today it will be in the 70's. That seems to be the trend for the upcoming week.

5) I suppose that soon I will need to look into Christmas shopping. If any of you have gift ideas for each other feel free to let me know. Also, from someone knowledgeable on the subject, I would like a prediction of Max's size. If I were to get him a t-shirt for Christmas, what size should I get?

6) On the subject of Christmas, since no one is coming to hook up my tv today I think that I will look into a Christmas tree to go with the ornament Stella said that she got.

7) You should all check out this here styling page!

8) Licking the end of a fountain pen does indeed make the ink flow better. And yes, I own a fountain pen and I use it to write letters.
