I think that my web access has returned to some form of stability again.  I have no idea why it was failing and getting a busy signal when I called the 1-800 number for tech support was not encouraging.  Watching my cable modem seemingly reboot itself was the definition of frustration for more than a few days.  I am hoping that that is behind me now.

I watched another episode of the anime series Bleach and I am not sure if I want to see more of it or not.  I am sensing a trend of one fight after another.  There may have been fighting in Full Metal Alchemist, but I cared more about what happened to Ed and Al than seeing them fight someone.  The two of them grew as people and came to understand their father better.  I need character development otherwise I feel as though I am wasting my time.

For the first time in fifteen years, I played chess last night.  Actually I played two different games against different people at the same time.  I lost one match, but the other was a draw.  Both of them taught me something about the game and I might start to play on more of a regular basis.
