Ran some errands, including to AT&T. The poor girl who worked there got stuck on hold for a long time, but she finally got thru and fixed everything up for us. So yay. I’ve got a load in the washer and I was going to hang it out, but I looked at the weather radar - some nasty stuff may be coming this way. Do I take the chance??? We shall see. ---

Ummmm… we have had a system “upgrade.” :rolleyes: Everything is runnin’ slower than molasses runnin’ uphill in Winter. I keep gettin’ “We seem to be unable to connect to your email account” whenever I try to do that. Nobody can communicate with me via email at irk. Woe is me. Not! Can’t deal with it if’n I don’t know about it right? **lieu** bacon wrapped pork sounds both oh so wrong and oh so right. I want some. 😃 ---

Evenin’ Got ‘physical intervention’ practical class tomorrow- should be interesting. Learnin’ how to kick troublemakers out- you lot better watch yerselves after, alright? 😛 Currently trying to do homework from an extremely badly written and formatted booklet. I’m fighting the urge to correct the most blatant grammar abuses… By the way, I actually don’t have rain spare here this year to send over- it’s been cloudy, and there’s been a few light showers, but it’s actually been fairly dry for once. It’s even supposed to be nice for this weekend’s carnival :eek: ---

Leftover poke from yesterday is simmering in BBQ sauce for sammiches today. Sides will be N.O.T. tots and whatever else I decide to cook up. More rain may be on the way - at least it looks that way from the radar. I’ve been afghaning - lazy afternoon. Tomorrow, I’ll weed for a while and maybe dig up some mulch. We’ll see how much energy I have. ---

Howdy from da cave. After my last post I finally gave up for the day. So, I have dusted and vacuumed da cave, ingested pizza, gotten ice to ice down beer, put said ice and beer in a cooler, started woodchips to soak for tomorrow’s smokefest, and cleaned up the back porch. Go Me! Now I’s tahrd! **flytrap** I’d consider buyin’ that feature. 😃 ETA: Party with **lieu** at **ruble’s** place! WOOHOO!!! ---
