So, there is one more update from WordPress. This time it is version 3.0.1 and when I installed it I found out that I have to upgrade all my plug-ins, too. I feel a little guilty complaining, since the WordPress is free. But I have lost count of how many times I have had to upgrade the program this year, and each time causes me a lot of anxiety and concern over whether it was done correctly and whether there will be any problems like my template perhaps not working any longer, etc. But that is all part of the package, I guess.

The new Robert Plant album is coming out in September. They released a single from the album, called “Angel Dance.” The video for the song is on the label’s web site and will probably hit Youtube shortly.
I watched it tonight and like the song. I don’t like the video, but I’m sure no one at the label cares much about my opinion. I think it was deliberately made to be controversial and I am frankly getting very tired of being manipulated by marketing and media people for the pure sake of them selling more stuff.
I don’t know if I’ll buy the album or not. If my suspicions are true about the deliberate staging of the video, then I doubt I will buy it. I’m going to let my wallet speak for me.

All the restaurants have been adding tilapia to their menus and I’ve tried a few. It’s a nice, firm white fleshed fish. The O’Charley’s menu item was lightly seasoned and grilled on a cedar plank. That was nice. I am going to look for a few recipes and try my hand with it at home one of these next few days.

Saw this online but have not yet seen it in the stores. I think it is a great idea for little dogs! My dogs are not that little to need it, but if I had a miniature breed or a Chihuahua, this would be great for them to be able to see where we are going on short trips around town.

On the trip to my local pet store, I noticed a travel trailer parked on the side of the store. So when I entered the store I was not surprised to see an adoption event going on. What did surprise me, though, was that the event was to find new homes for rescued greyhounds.
The greyhounds are magnificent dogs. I was very impressed with how sociable they were. They are beautiful dogs, with a variety of markings and coat colors. I sure wish I had a fenced yard to bring one home. It would not be fair to a large dog to not have a fenced yard for them to run.

I think if I was Hot, that I would be getting pretty tired of Humidity tagging along this summer. It’s as bad as having a little brother tagging along on a date when you were kids. Not that I ever had to deal with that. Just saying.
