We were up early in case we would be able to put into port in Aruba. But, as we ate breakfast, the captain announced that Omar, which had passed through Aruba yesterday as a tropical storm, had been upgraded to a hurricane. Although we were in no danger (the hurricane was moving away from us–in…
Up before 7 AM and feeling much better, although a little groggy. The sea seemed calmer this morning there are blue skies and sunshine. I sat out on the balcony for a little while and then we headed for breakfast. The Horizon Court was empty at 7 AM, compared to what it was at 9…
Up sometime between 7 and 8 AM. We headed up to the Horizon Court for breakfast and found a nice table at the very front of the ship, so we could watch us plow through choppy seas and overcast skies. So far the seas on this cruise have been far more choppier than the cruise…

I went to deposit some checks at the local branch of our bank and it turned out the branch was closed because it had been robbed. This is a mall branch. Go figure. After work, Casey took me over to Saturn to pick up my car. When I called earlier in the afternoon, I was…
Last night we went t a friend’s house to play Rock Band. It was my first time playing. We started the evening off with some good pizza from a local pizza joint. The three of us started playing Rock Band around 8:30 PM. When we finally decided to call it quits, it was nearly 1:30 AM!…
