Chernaudi's blog and random stuff...

Hi everyone.

 

I feel a bit tired and run down today.  The 24 Hours of Le Mans in on tomorrow, though I'm not sure if I'll watch all of it.  It's been getting harder and harder for me to watch it every year the past few years.  I just don't have the energy to stay up and watch it, and combined with the fact that I have to go back into work Monday, means that I might not watch the whole race.

 

I have some plans for doing some gaming and stuff later today.  I don't know what I'll be having for dinner and such yet, or what I'll be doing tonight aside from some gaming stuff.

 

@Jupiter:  I hope that she enjoyed the move and it's great news that she starts her new job fairly soon.  And with how I feel right now, I'll be needing some luck to make it though my first day back.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

No, not really.  I'd like to buy some of the races on DVD when I get some money saved up.  I also posted in the Lemonade Stand about some other stuff that may motivate me to not watch the whole thing.

 

I'll be watching some videos in a while and doing some gaming then.

Hi everyone.

 

I'm back from watching the 24 Hours of Le Mans.  For plenty of spoilers for the final result, there's this press release from Audi about their 1-2 finish.

I actually enjoyed the race more than I though that I would.  It was a clean race aside from some bits during a rain storm and it wasn't the wreck-fest I feared it would be, and Audi also got a 1-2 finish, the winning #2 Audi got fastest race lap, and both cars did, like almost everyone else in the field, had to battle adversity to stamp their authority on the race's results.

 

I go back to work tomorrow, and I'll be spending much of this day resting up from my weekend and getting ready for work tomorrow.  So I don't have too many plans for today

These photos sum up my weekend:

I'll be getting offline fairly soon since I do have to work tomorrow and help out with grandma before I go in.

Hi everyone.

 

Had a great first day at work and met up with a lot of my friends there.  There were no hassles, no issues, and things seem to be a lot more organized there than last I'm I was there.

 

I'll be resting up tonight and trying to stay cool.  If it wasn't so damned hot and humid in my house, I'd consider making some chicken bacon ranch pasta salad, which would be good because that stuff's pretty good when left in the fridge to chill.  I might make that stuff anyways, because it was so good the last time. 

 

I also have gaming and such and since the LM24 stuff has died down and the next WEC race isn't for three months, I'll be getting back into the swing of fan fic writing.

Hi everyone.

 

I have a day off today, and I'll be doing some gaming and maybe some fan fic writing. 

 

I named 2 of our older kittens today.  I named the all-white boy Snowball, and it's girl sibling Jade.  I originally wanted to name it Griselda, but my brother protested.  But I hope that my mom will like the names I picked for them.

 

Today does feel cooler than yesterday, though it's supposed to be hotter.  But anyways, those are my plans for today.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

It won't be for a while before I buy a new gaming console.  I don't get paid much and I won't be making any serious money until I work at my new position.  Jade and Snowball are still box-ridden because of how small they are, but Jade has escaped on numerous occasions.

Hi everyone.

 

I had a good day at work though I was late because of a mix up at the taxi company.  Renee (my boss) and I have decided to start sending them my schedule via fax or email to help prevent this from happening.  Though I did feel what Jim Cantore feels when I was going down the highway to get to work today.  And with as hot as it was, it felt great.

 

We have the AC in our house now and it's a godsend.  I have the day off from work tomorrow, and I have some plans for gaming and maybe fan fic writing.  Other than that, I won't be too busy tonight, but I'll be a helluva lot cooler than I have been.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

AC is king where I'm at!  The best thing that's happened since I got my job and Audi took a 1-2 at Le Mans on Sunday.  After saying it was supposed to rain all week since Sunday, it finally rained last night.  And it looks like more of the same today.

 

I got my new schedule from work today and I'll pick up a paper copy tomorrow.  Today's a day off and I'm wondering on what I'll do today aside from some gaming.  I'll probably work on fan fic if I get a chance because I've been thinking a lot about my character Jennifer in it.  Between NASCAR's road racing weekend and coming off Le Mans, I have plenty of gaming stuff I'd like to try out.

 

Other than that, I plan on staying cool (much easier now) and having some fun today

Hi everyone.

 

Had a great day at work today.  Got home and took a nap for a couple of hours, and I'm ready for tonight.  I'll be watching F1 practice, NASCAR practice and a show about this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans.  I'll also be making a pizza tonight.  Outside of that, I won't be doing too much.

 

I'll be back later

Hi everyone.

 

I have plans of watching the NASCAR races this weekend, since they are road course races.  I also plan on making some chicken nachos tonight when I watch the shortened highlighted Nationwide Series race tonight.

 

I also wanna do some gaming and I'll probably get started on working on some fan fic tomorrow night.  Also, Audi were supposed to run the Le Mans winning R18 around the Nurburgring circuit before the 24 Hour race there this weekend, but I haven't seen any photos or reports of that yet.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

This morning, Audi won their second 24 hour race in a week at the Nurburgring 24 hour race.  Right now, I'm waiting for my parents to arrive with my groceries and such.

 

I don't have much else planned, though I do plan on watching the NASCAR race later on, as it's also on a road course, as well as some gaming and such.  Probably no or not much fan fic work tonight, since I do have work tomorrow.

 

I'll be back later

Hi everyone.

 

Got home from work and had a good day.  I took about a 4 hour nap when I got home.  At work, we might be doing something different with my transportation.  We're thinking of switching taxi companies because of them getting me there late and I'm having issues with getting stuff scheduled with them.  It seems to be a problem at their office and not with their drivers, who give great service, but something IMO isn't right with the administrative/scheduling end of things at the main office.

 

Other than that, I'm pretty happy right now.  I'm going to be making some chicken/bacon ranch wraps to eat soon, because I haven't eaten anything since this morning.  I'll be looking up stuff, doing some gaming and maybe writing fan fic over the next day or so and tonight.

Hi everyone.

 

I'm up early this morning because my little brother has something to do with his father and one of his friends.  So that's why I'm up now, unlike yesterday which was work related.

 

The latest report on my kittens is that Jade can drink from a water dish and Snowball seems to be ready to go exploring on the floor.  Jade has already been exploring since last night and she's been over to the cat's food trough thing, though I don't know if she's tried eating yet. 

 

I don't have much planned for today.  Maybe working on some fan fic later and looking up some stuff and maybe some gaming later.  Then it's back to work tomorrow.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

I just got home a while ago, and I can report that Jade and Snowball can explore on the floor and both can eat solid food. 

 

I had a pretty good day at work and I'll be working from 12:00-3:00 on Friday.  Some extra pay isn't that bad, now is it?

 

I'm hoping to work on some fan fic tonight and doing some gaming later on.  I'll also be deciding on making chicken or fish for dinner tonight.  After all, I've only really had toast so far today.

 

I'd also like to post this that I found this yesterday and this morning:  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.10152477496789099&type=1

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

I had some fish and went to sleep last night, and I got up around 6:00 this morning. 

 

Jade and Snowball are doing well, and both are exploring on the floor now and are eating solid cat food.  Shelby (our 6 month old black and white kitten) is trying to flee outside every time someone tries to go out the front door.

 

My older brother has his first day at work today, so that's part of the reason I'm up now (though I did get up on my own).  I'll probably be staying up until my little brother gets up, and I'll be making my grandma breakfast and giving her her meds this morning, as I do most mornings.

 

Other than that, I have the usual planned (gaming, looking up stuff, etc), I'll probably be making chicken tonight for dinner and I'll be working from 12:00-3:00 tomorrow.  I also hope that you liked the photos I posted.

Hi everyone.

Shortly, I'll be helping grandma with her breakfast and meds, and after that I'll pretty much have to start to get ready for work.  I work from 12:00 to 3:00 today.  I probably won't be online much until later on after that, possibly 6:00 or 7:00 or so.

But I do have a question.  It's about Jennifer from Breaking Dawn (Nauhel's sister).  I'm including her in my fan fic that I'm working on, and it regards the fact that her mother is from Ohio and Joham is from Portugal.  Seeing that, wouldn't it be likely that Jennifer would have dual US and Portuguese citizenship?

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

I fed and med-ed grandma, and she's doing OK this morning, though I did have to help her with her TV remote--I caught her watching a FIA GT race on CBS Sports Network before I switched it to the Westerns channel. 

 

The kittens are still doing pretty good, though with my brother at work right now I can't post any pictures of them.  But they like to run around on the floor and they can drink and eat on their own.

 

I'll be making a grocery list today and since I'll be getting my Social Security check on Tuesday, I'll have to figure out how to get it cashed since my brother will probably be working all day.  Other than that, I have a NASCAR race I wanna watch tonight and a sportscar race tomorrow.

 

Speaking of sportscar racing, this is the last few hours of the 24 Hours of Le Mans from two weeks ago onboard the winning #2 Audi.  Of course, to see the end of the race and the victory lap, you'll have to fast forward to the 3:20 mark: 

 

 

So that's what I'll be doing today, and I'm looking forward to when my training will start for the scanning job, which should be soon.

Hi everyone.

 

Got done watching a 6 hour sportscar race and I'll be spending the rest of the night trying to keep cool and doing some gaming and fan fic stuff.  At least I have some chicken to make sandwich wraps with, which will help with the fact that it's hot and humid and I don't have to cook anything.

 

I have work tomorrow, which means that I'll be going to sleep early or at least sleeping long enough tonight to get up early, since my brother has work in the morning.  I also have work tomorrow and Wednesday, but I'm off Friday.

 

Other than that, that's about all I have going on today.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

I was late to work because the taxi showed up way late.  Hopefully that'll get straightened out before Wednesday. 

 

It'll be pretty hot and humid here tonight, and there's some bad weather in other parts of the midwest, so be careful in that area of the country.  I'm pretty thankful that I have plenty of stuff to eat that doesn't have to be cooked.

 

I'll be trying to keep cool tonight and at least tomorrow hopefully I'll be able to get my money out of the bank and do some grocery shopping.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

Big thing today is that me and my brother are trying to get out and get my money out of the bank so I can go grocery shopping and pay off a fine at the library.  I'm supposed to get a call when my brother gets off work so I can get ready to do this stuff.

 

Other than that, I don't have much planned today.  I might work on fan fic later tonight after things cool off, and I'll for sure be doing dishes later tonight, too.  I might have a couple of videos to post later on, too.

 

But right now, I'm waiting to hear if I'll be going shopping today.

Hi everyone.

 

This is my last at work until next week.  Then I'll start getting more hours at work starting next week.  Today weather wise for me has been the first decent day since last week. 

 

My kittens are healthy and I'll be resting up the next few day and trying to get back into the swing of gaming and fan fic writing.

 

I'll be back later

[*Chernaudi]

Hi everyone.

 

Sorry for the late posting, but I was up all morning after my brother went to work, and I stayed up way too long and only got up about an hour ago.

 

Aside from that, everything's OK and I'll probably be making some sandwich wraps tonight for dinner.  I'm also hoping to do a bit of gaming and such and try go get to sleep at a more respectable time.  At least the weather is much better.  Much cooler at least and at night it should be good sleeping weather.

 

So that will hopefully be what I'll be up to soon.

Hi everyone.

 

I'm not feeling so well this morning.  I think that I overate before I went to bed, plus I only got about 6 hours of sleep before I got up this morning.  I might take a nap before too much longer, after my grandma gets up, I get her meds and breakfast and her settled in.  I just feel really groggy and stiff this morning.

 

I hope to catch a NASCAR race tonight and I seriously hope that I feel better than I do right now.

 

Happy 4th of July everyone

Hi Everyone.

 

I slept in yesterday after my brother and father got done with yard work.  I felt like crap all day yesterday and it seems that some rest did some good for me today so far. 

 

I'll be doing the typical today as far as looking up stuff and whatever, and I hope to do some gaming and fan fic work later tonight after the NASCAR race--if they get it in.  This is summer time in Florida, and if you live there or been there this time of year, you know how things go down there with thunderstorms...

 

I'll try and make me something to eat in a few minutes and wait for Grandma to get up so I can make her something to eat and I'll be waiting for the race tonight.
