It's Tuesday. I'm in a hotel. Law and Order is on the TV. Dinner was barbecue. Lunch was Cheesecake Factory. The AC is a bit noisy here, but the bed ooooh so wonderful.

I haven't written for a few days. I am feeling significantl better than I was last week. I still have a bit of a runny nose and a bit of phlegm, but I don't feel feverish or otherwise miserable.

I had a pretty good weekend, I guess. I did a lot of packing and cleaning on Friday after I got back from Charlotte. I discovered a cleaning product called Scrubbing Bubbles. It worked wonders on my bathroom. I pretty much packed up my kitchen, the bathroom, more of my bedroom. Then I went to the Local, and ended up at Brian's playing poker.

After the poker, I came back and spent some time reading Hurricane Katrina stuff on the internet for a couple of hours. I then realised that I should probably get some sleep. Unfortunately, it was very bright outside, and my body had passed beyond tidiness. So I got on with packing and cleaning, and watching Isle of Wight concert footage on INHD2. Around four o'clock I made my way over to the Hyatt and an evening of debauchery at DragonCon.

Sunday was a day of sleep, recovery and packing up my computer desk. And more Isle of Wight footage. Late in the evening I wandered up to the Local for some dinner and darts. John and Holly stopped by for a while. Jenn W came up for some company. I sucked at darts. I hung out with Susan (my neighbour-to-be) and Emily. A good evening.

Monday was Labor Day. A bit more packing, a lot of watching Law and Order (the Jill Hennessey years), and some chatting with Jennifer M, who had just made a wonderful purchase. I am very pleased for her, and a little jealous. And then I made the trek to North Carolina.

I think I'm going to buy a new receiver/amplifier this weekend. I'm not really at the financial point I wanted to be in before making this purchase, but I really feel the need so I can connect up my AV system the way I really want it connected up. Eh, we shall see.
