    Day 22 - Still sick, TV recording

    Today was even less eventful than yesterday, as I have been sick and home resting all day. My family left this afternoon, which was sad. It was great to see them again. I had a great time while they were here, and they helped me a lot. I will get to see everyone (in Norman and in San Jose) in about 4 months so I'm looking forward to that. Tonight I received an unexpected call from my aunt Merri which helped cheer me up.

    I finally got my Norman TV recording/encoding system working so today I was able to watch the Seinfeld and King of the Hill episodes that I recorded during the past week. Now I'm all set for the OU football season. I'm looking forward to that, but I'll miss being able to flip between channels and watch 5 different games at the same time (the internet connection only gives me 50K/s between here and my house, so the live stream is frustrating to watch - recording them and watching them later works much better, but I can only record one at a time). And I won't be able to listen to the analyses on the radio either. But that's probably good news, because it'll give me more time to analyze nocturnal boundary layer decoupling and less time wasted analyzing most of the teams in college football.
