Sailboat
Here's the model boat on my current condo's television cabinet. I like it. Not much of a picture, though. Some of these "reality" shots are hard on my reputation as a photographic artiste.
Long day today. In fact, I'm still in the office, although I stopped working almost half an hour ago. I'm kind of waiting around for a couple of the guys to finish what they're doing so we can go out to dinner together.
Oops - dinner just got postponed again. Those guys may not be going out anywhere tonight. But I am. I'm giving them a few more minutes before I just take off.
Nothing much to blog about tonight. The weekend was fine. I worked a few hours both days and spent a lot of time at home in the condo otherwise. My new condo has a George Foreman barbecue, which I've already taken advantage of by cooking a few steaks and hamburgers. Both the living room and the master bedroom face the ocean, giving me a double-wide balcony. There's a new refrigerator and dishwasher and everything else is in very good shape. And then there's the nice sailboat model pictured above. The only thing it was missing was a DVD player, so I spent forty-five bucks at WalMart and bought one. I'll take it home and use it in our bedroom when the campaign is over. I was looking for a good price on a DVD recorder, but the 'Mart didn't have any.
The weather was terrible yesterday. It only got up to about 75 degrees, it was cloudy, and the wind was blowing to beat the band. They really need some rain here, but we got about two drops. The good thing was that I kept my sliding glass doors open all day and the condo felt quite comfortable. The wind kept blowing doors shut, but that wasn't a problem. Saturday was warm and sunny, if a little bit windy. There were plenty of people on the beach Saturday; it was deserted yesterday. Not even the tourists went out there. It was nice again today - not too warm and mostly cloudy, but comfortable. Can't complain.
Well, that's about it for today. I'm going to pack up and go get some dinner, friends or no friends. See you tomorrow.

Sorry I forgot to comment yesterday. I'm having a problem with my LineCounter program. When I run it, Activity Monitor says that it is only using 20 megs of memory at any one time. Memory leak programs have said that it only leaks about 40 bytes of memory - and not from classes that I made. However, when I run it with a 256 meg file it leaves a 256 meg chunk of "inactive" memory that isn't claimed by any application. I've just made a video of the phenomenon and plan to send it to Jonathan. Maybe he can help me understand what the heck is going on.
Anyway, I barbequed tonight, had great fun, and produced some fairly good burgers. Seeing as this comment is approaching the length of the blog post, I'll stop now. (Maybe I should start a blog of my own that I update every once in a while, but I really don't want the comitment.)
