Day 1

Last day in C-town. I wish I could've gone to the Indians game last night. It's fitting that it was the Battle of Ohio with the Indians losing to the Reds. This makes me think of whatshername which makes me want to go all Milton Bradley and kick the water cooler. I'm going to take Mr. Rocky to the park, pick up a coffee, and then come back and finish the loading. My hung over brother might crawl back here in the afternoon. I don't need him to help load the truck but he needs to go through his stuff and do something with it. Or not. I gave the keys and contact information to my nice neighbors.

I have to take apart the TV/DVR/DVD as well as remember to pick up the DSL modem upstairs. I should also clean out the microwave.

And that's about it! I'm halfway through a book called The Digital Plague. It's one of the better action scifi tomes, well, the sequel to one called The Electric Church. A girl at Caribou recommended it. I like recommendations. I tend to recommend old stuff, like Vurt or Revelation Space or (National Book Award Winner circa 1960) The Moviegoer. I like books. Well, I like good books. Other ones that I've loved include The Sheltering Sky and anything by Jerzy Kosinski. Yes, yes, I know he comes from the Elizabeth Hasselbeck School of Plagarism but a good book is a good book. It's not like Hollywood movies don't have a cast of thousands to doctor a typical script, and Hollywood has been cannibalizing itself since Birth of a Nation.
