September 2004 – Home from Oregon, Suzanne,
Sunday, 9-5-2004: Drove all weekend and got home at 3:30am Sunday. Cleaned up the kitchen and went to bed.
Wednesday, 9-8-2004: Worked all day. Went to Applebee’s with Suzanne for dinner. Went for a 3 hour walk after she left. Let Josh & Lori borrow my car earlier to get to church.
Thursday, September 9th, 2004: Journals are stupid. I quit.
Saturday, 9-11-2004: I spent all day today cleaning up the basement. I built shelves along one wall to put all my computers and monitors on. Then a desk in the same room (the old wine cellar room) and set up my old TRS-80 on and got it working. Around 8pm I had quit and was playing on the net when Tami IMed me and wanted to know if I wanted to meet her and a friend in downtown to hang out. I said sure, got ready and walked to downtown Alton. It was an hour and 15 minutes walk. I met them at Catdaddy’s at 10pm and we went bar hopping until 1:30am or so. I finally got to see Alton’s gay bar which was about the most entertaining part of the night. They took me home around 2am and I didn’t fall asleep until about 4am.
Sunday, 9-12-2004: Slept in until almost 11am. Worked on the basement for a few hours, then Suzanne came over for awhile. We went to Applebees for supper. After she left, I continued on the basement. Gathered up a bunch of scrap wood, brought it to the yard and set it all on fire. Bo, Mack and Ryan ended up coming over and roasting hot dogs over it while I sat on the deck and played on the net.
Snore.
