This morning started out at 2am when my CD player decided it was going to start cycling through the CD's without playing any. That continuous noise woke me up. I reach up to turn on the light, and the light doesn't come on. Next step was to grab the old flashlight and try and fix the CD player. By the time I was through with it, it was beyond repair. So, I put in a cassette and go back to bed. The alarm goes off this morning and I sleep right through it. By the time I woke up, the sun was already up. I reach for the light switch, and BANG! Sparks go everywhere, falling on my bedspread and burning holes all in it. After I get through putting out my bedspread, I reach over for this glass of water to get something wet in my mouth. This is a 64 oz glass of water, and it just slides through my fingers and smashes on the floor. Water goes everywhere. It was about this time I had just about had enough for one day, and it hadn't even started. I also by now didn't feel like going out to the houses I've been doing. It was late, and I just didn't feel like going that far for such a short time before it started heating up. Knowing I just had to get out of here for awhile, I just took off driving. As I was calming down I noticed two parks I had never seen before, one with a soccer field. I broke out the ol' detector and hit the tot lots and around the outside edges to see what change I could pick up. Both parks seem to have quite a bit of change, and when I finally made it back to the house and rinsed them off, I found I had found exactly 100 coins. This makes the 3rd day this week of 100 coin days. So, now I am replacing the light socket and cleaning up my mess from earlier. Then I'm locking the door and not coming out for the rest of the day. Tomorrow will be another day, but as far as I am concerned, today is over.

You drink more water than the man who invented water: "Mr. Water." 
Maybe tomorrow or Sunday. You must sleep with music; I can't do that, I keep listening and singing along in my brain, then I stay awake. Did you maybe get a power surge? Lightening in the area? When I hear it's going to storm I unplug the phone line to my computer; lost two in the past due to the phone line. I believe my surge protector phone line is blown cuz when I plug the computer in it I don't get a dial tone. Don't be forgetting about house #4 and the ring.
Glad you got out detecting.
