Sunday snowy Sunday

Just checked the weather map, and it's supposed to start snowing any minute now. What a weekend I've had so far, and it's only half over.

Friday night, Kerry and I spent several hours on the computer going BACK over what music she had been planning to send me, all thanks to her dear husband. She sent me a few cd's worth of music, then we both went to bed. Once I receive music from Kerry, I use a feature of MusicMatch that allows me to convert (compress) the file down to 128 kbps to make the file smaller. For some reason most of the songs on Kerry's computer are at 160 kbps. The higher the kbps, the larger the file, the more room it takes up on my computer. Supposedly you lose some quality the more you compress, but I've listened to songs before converting and after, and I haven't noticed any difference in quality.

Yesterday I was going to convert all the files Kerry sent me on Friday night. I was part way through, but it was taking so long because my From Kerry file was getting pretty full. So part way through, I start making subfiles in From Kerry, one for each artist. That ended up taking all day and all night, but only because I got distracted doing something else, lmao. I thoroughly enjoyed the chat in msn yesterday with everyone. And I finally got all the subfiles made, songs converted and moved to the appropriate file. The only ones I didn't move are the ones I have just one or two songs for an artist, the oddball ones I don't know if I'll ever have more songs by them, like Tebey.

About 7:30pm last night, I also decided I was going to call this guy Paul who was "matched" for me by this dating service I joined (see post from Monday Feb 27). He answered his phone, lo and behold he knew nothing about our "match." Apparently he hadn't opened his mail for the last couple of days and didn't know there was a match waiting to be contacted, lol. He was at his mom's visiting for a bit, he said he'd call me back later. So later, about 9:00 or so, the phone rings, it's him calling me back. We talked for about an hour. Very nice conversation, we talked a lot about bad drivers here in Chicago, and family stuff. Apparently we talked his whole drive home from his mom's. He lives in Streamwood, which is only about 15 miles north of me. Unfortunately, we ended the conversation not confirming if he would be calling me back so we could arrange to meet. I'm not so good at this stuff, lol.

Then I had the craziest dream last night. Too much stuff going to get into details, but I was at some guy's house who I had been "matched" up with, and after being there for several hours waiting to spend some time with him (he kept doing other things like talking on the phone, or talking to a friend/relative), as I was leaving I asked if he was going to call me, and he said he didn't feel anything for me, and I hope that's ok. LMAO, maybe just my fears coming through in my dream??

Today, I'm going to see a movie, Ultraviolet. Not sure if it will be good or not, I'll let ya know, lol.
