Wednesday 21 to Sunday 25
Sep. 25th, 2011 10:52 pmWednesday 21- I did my stretches, yoga, and ran a mile.
John Massey took me to the dentist.
I kinda got wiped out, painfully and mentally, from the dentist visit and the pain pill I took afterwards and didn’t do much of anything for the next 24 hours.
Thursday 22- I did my stretches.
I worked on the patio.
I watched three new episodes of “Warehouse 13”.
Friday 23- I did my stretches and ran a mile.
Kelly picked me up and we went to post office in Twentynine Palms where she spent the next hour filling out address forms on some packages she’s sending. We went to Rite Aid to pick up her meds and then onto Staters for supplies.
We spent the rest of the night until 1am outside hoping to see that satellite that’s suppose to fall out of the sky; unfortunately that didn’t happen nowhere near up but out in the Pacific ocean somewhere.
Saturday 24- I did my stretches, yoga, core trainer, lifted weights, and ran a mile.
I called family and friends throughout the day and wished my really good friend Kula a happy birthday. Dang phone is still acting up dropping my calls.
I cooked all the stuff up I’m taking to potluck tonight: rice and stuffing.
I updated the Copper Mountain Mesa website and sent out the Newsletter.
About 15 folks showed up for potluck.
John Massey came by around 7:30pm to do a little stargazing with me.
Sunday 25- I did my stretches.
I did some work on the patio again today; also watered the plants.
I watched lecture 25 of MIT Introduction to Biology: Genomics.
I went outside again tonight to check on Delta Cephei and see if it had changed in brightness and this time I noticed that it was brighter than Epsilon Cephei whereas on my previous observations a few nights ago it was fainter.
I read aloud from the textbook “Astronomy Today” about “Making the Heaviest Elements” where the s-process (S stands for slow) stops at bismuth-209, the r-process (R stands for rapid) create elements like uranium and plutonium in the first 15 minutes of a supernova where more neutrons are freed because of the violence of the implosion jamming already heavy nucleuses with more neutron forming even heavier elements. So I guess when a teacher or someone says that that gold ring you have wrapped around your finger came from a supernova you can correct them and say that it came from the neutron capture s-process of a massive star.
I read from my reading list.
