Free food and other stuff

Yesterday I went to bed at 3:30am and woke up an hour and a half later. That’s because I was busy making the presentation I had to give, which I wrote about on Slacker Manager. So I was feeling a little weird all day. We had lots of leftover food at the conference, so I brought home a bag of eats–that was nice.

Later in the evening, Amy had a meeting and I was giving Tru a bath. Came out of the bathroom and there were two gallons of milk on the kitchen counter. I was a little freaked out that there was some kind of milk-ghost in the house. Amy told me later that she was expecting a friend to drop of the milk–guess she just came in, dropped it off and left. When Amy got home, she had a free loaf of bread from her meeting. Lots of free food yesterday.

The new blog is doing nicely and getting a couple hundred visits a day. Not bad for being less than a week old. This evening I bought a textad on Metafilter (only $10 for 10,000 pageviews), so we’ll see if that drives any traffic over there. The AdSense ads are weird–all about blogging, but I don’t really talk about blogs. Not sure what’s going on there and I hope it changes. Also, looking at the referrer logs this evening, I see that I’m one of the top results for the search paired ranking. Weird.

This evening Truman is watching Godzilla. He said it’s his favorite movie and I can understand why. Big dinosaur-monster. He loves it. Amy had the movie for one of her classes and Tru turned it on when we got home and is just digging it.

Finally, be sure to go check out Jared’s writing over on Simple Subjects. He’s kinda writing about the stuff I wanted to address when I talked about the ‘Right Living’ blog. Go look, it’s good stuff. And help a brotha’ out–click a couple ads for him. 🙂

  1. Are you telling or am I? I guess I’ll do it.
    Bren got in BIG trouble when I came home to see what Tru was watching. He’s in time out as I write…

  2. That’s great Amy that you put Bren in timeout!!! Way to go!!

    Shame on you Bren. I would never let my boys watch something like that. James Bond maybe, but not Godzilla. 😀

    I feel your pain brother!

    Lu, here’s a link that gives info on Google Ads. Basically they take the content of your page, and find ads that contextually have some relevance. In theory anyway. Your visitor clicks on this link and then you get paid.

  3. I was going to tell Amy to lighten up, but I don’t want to be put into time out by my sister.;-)

    Sorry, I couldn’t resist teasing my sister.
