I had quite an exciting day. This morning I took the train to New York City. I worked from the Manhattan office. The 4:30 train took me home. I made Lisa steamed tilapia, green beans and eggplant on white rice for dinner. She told me it was horrible. I thought it was quite tasty. Now, it wasn’t as good as when Rob and I make it with fresh fish but it wasn’t bad. After dinner, I took towels out of the dryer and I put the newly washed clothes from earlier into the dryer. I then fished out the 2000 flushes tablets from the two downstairs commodes. I am convinced they are to blame for the toilet issues I have been having. My right hand is now bright blue. I am a little worried because I am hosting a morning meeting tomorrow and I really hope this blue dye comes off. No one is going to want to shake my hand!

In the mail this afternoon was the book I ordered from Amazon: Steam Cuisine: Full steam ahead with 100 delicious recipes for a healthier diet. When I ordered the book, the description read new. It’s not new. There are notes written on some of the pages by the previous owner. There are also food splashes on a couple pages. I emailed the seller and asked how he/she would like to rectify this matter. I later went onto the Circuit City page and decided to have the laptop shipped to me. In the middle of the order, I thought, maybe I should just pick it up at Lawrenceville. That option was not available! I wonder if the hard time that jerk gave me had more to do with him not having the notebook rather than me not having sufficient ID? The world will never know. All I know is my lifeline has been cut off and I need a replacement. I will definitely get my money’s worth out of it. And why not? I wish I felt more at ease spending money.

The Secret DVD came in today. AND JAMES RAY IS STILL HAUNTING ME! This afternoon on a break, I thought I would check his page just to see if there are any updates. As I clicked on IE, I noticed an interesting article on the NYT rss feed I have on my google home page. I clicked on it to find AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE SECRET AND IT MENTIONS JAMES RAY! How freaky weird it that? Apparently a large percentage of the information from the DVD came from a woman who channels a spirit named Abraham. Or rather it comes from Abraham via a woman medium. It just sounds so absolutely silly. Still, the DVD arrived and I plan on watching it and perhaps I will take something of value away from it. Perhaps I will find my own spirit with whom I can connect! I can see myself being like Cyndi Lauper’s character in the movie, Vibes.

Sitting next to me on the train this morning was a woman reading the New York Times print edition. I couldn’t help but peak over her shoulder and read a bit of an article about male fertility.

…mounting evidence is raising questions… suggesting that as men get older, they face an increased risk of fathering children with abnormalities. Several recent studies are starting to persuade many doctors that men should not be too cavalier about postponing marriage and children.

Oddly enough, this made me smile. Men deserve to have a clock over their heads too!
