No internet or HDTV

When I got home this evening I found that the lights on the cable modem was not flashing. So I promptly cycled the power, hoping it would solve the problem like previous times. Not so lucky this time and when I turned on the TV to see if it was just the cable modem I found the set-top box was out too. So no internet or TV, and this happened on the night of 24 season finales!

Time Warner Cable could only send a technician out here on Wednesday so we’ll be entertainment-less until then. At least the recorded shows on the DVR are Ok so at we can watch them. And I guess this also give me time to read all the magazines and books…

One constant in life

The IRS will be receiving some of my saving tomorrow as the annual ‘raid the citizen piggy bank’ day approaches. With that out of the way, I can now think about getting the Xbox 360. People at work have been trying to get me to buy one since they have no one to play with. We’ll see how the finance situation is after the missing ring is replaced…

Best Job

According to CNNMoney today, I have the best job in America. Beating, what I called, the three acronym, Q.C. (#37), M.D. (#30), and M.B.A. (#whatever).

Die by Dehydration

If it is medically possible, I think I’ll be the first fatality from dehydration through runny nose.

My nose has been running continuously since yesterday evening and does not seem to be letting up. Stupid nose.

Scones with Jams and Cream



Scones with Jams and Cream

Leah baked some scones for our DVD watching session tonight (an episode of Hustle and then Midnight Express). They came out really well so she wanted a photographic record of them. I was more than happy to oblige since it let me take me much neglected camera out. (Note to self: must do more photography when weather turns better)

Oh, and they tasted great!
