There are these creatures that live under my porch, and up until yesterday, they were quite friendly with me.
When I first noticed them, I thought that someone had dropped a sack of potatoes near the walkway to the front door. They were each about the size of a potato, with brown mottled skin, not unlike the textrue of a potato. They had very small eyes that were entirely pupil sunk into their noseless faces. Each had a pair of twig-like legs and arms, and some of them carried twigs sharpened into potato-people-sized spears. They seemed altogether shocked when I happened upon them.
This graph shows the time distribution of how I spend my day. In case you wondered.
I went out for lunch and shopping with my mom yesterday. We stopped at Best Buy in my quest to find a new amplifier for my computer speakers, which has still gone unresolved.
However, I did find a new DVD player for the family room, an updated version of our old DVD player, which I will move to the kid’s TV in the playroom. The new one is DivX Ultra, and actually plays some of the TV shows from the current season that I was having trouble with. It also has a USB port to play files directly from a USB keychain or hard drive. All that with HDMI upsampling to 1080i for under $100, and I was totally sold.
