1. I’m buying something from Craigslist today… so if you never hear from me again, just assume I was murdered.

2. If anything awful like that really did happen to me, it’s pretty unlikely you all would ever hear about it though.

3. I’m buying a computer, but I can’t decide whether to make it into a DVR or give it to my son for him to use.

4. I guess I’m leaning more toward the latter, which means I’ll need to buy another computer for the former.

5. If I can get my hands on a tuner card that will decode all of my cable channels, that is — it’s a prerequisite.

6. I need to start spending more time watching TV or I’m going to feel all my cable money is going to waste!

7. The big old monster TV my kids watch is broken and there’s no way I can get it fixed. They’re going to be sad.

8. I guess we’ll take the medium sized XBox TV and use it for show watching and find a little TV for game playing.

9. I don’t know how we’ll go on living.

10. My youngest daughter is becoming a flute prodigy.

11. I need to start working on my learning of the bagpipes, which I’ve started but which has gotten side tracked.

12. I have a whole mess of draft posts I’ve started but now they seem really dumb.

13. I think I should throw them away before I do something really crazy like post them!
