MonkeyMonkey went with his momma to a dentist appointment. This gives me time to relax a bit, thumb through some email, get my morning coffee, and eventually hit the shower.
I really need to find someone to keep him entertained for a few hours during the day, so I can get stuff done. Ah well, at least I'm getting quality time in with my boy. That's always a very good thing.
No matter how you slice it, the Winnie is gonna need some work done. New windshield, speedometer, battery isolator and power inverter. Gotta come up with the money for a deep-cycle marine battery to run the fridge off of. Surprisingly, the thing is geared for RV use, and only eats about 60 watts. Not too shabby for a refrigerator. Gotta replace the skirt around the pop-up, and some accessory lights, and we're back in business.
Oh, and it would be grand to find a small trailer to haul stuff without packing up the Winnie to the roof. ;-)

I need to look into repairing the headphone jack on my laptop. Without it, I can't run monitors out from my MP3Jing software. That means no beatmixing. I *did* figure out a way to do it, but it requires using TWO audio devices through the USB splitter. That might be a dicey proposition. I'm a little wary of disassembling my laptop, since there's always factory wires that don't go back without the proprietary weird tool. We'll see.

Having a hard time coming up with fun events for Ground Control. I can't really lobby for drink specials until we get more people in the doors. Guest DJs are out of the question, since Chris really doesn't even get to DJ much. Anyone got any bright ideas?
