This morning, my neighbor was making a bunch of noise in his yard. It was so windy, it was surprising he was out there. That woke me up and started out the day grumpy. Then my internet crashed again. This time I decided I wasn't going to try to fix it right away. I would check to see if all...

My internet cut out again just now. Talking to Comcast is so infuriating. Their bullying is just disgusting. I started yelling at the guy to stop talking. When he wouldn't, I yelled louder until he stopped. But it was worse on me than him because now I'm angry. The problem is that there...

Last night, I fell asleep for 10 1/2 hours. What bliss! I felt a lot better when I woke up. After days of wrangling with the neighbors and Comcast, I was ready for a break. I'm still waiting for my internet to go out. I've been downloading stuff for offline viewing. I've downloaded some...

Slept for 10 1/2 hours. After days of hassling with Comcast and a day of my back neighbor playing pounding music, the sleep was like a balm for the soul. My internet stayed up over the weekend. That's like saying the lights are still working, but with Comcast, it's nice when something works...

Back neighbor played pounding music for 6 hours then was laughing, screaming, making animal noises, yelling and talking super loudly for another 2 hours. I think they moved their location farther from new neighbor's house, but still right behind my house. At that new location though, police...

Got a little break today. It rained heavily so neighbors were inside. I was thrilled since I didn't want to go out to water. Comcast guy followed up with me. He was late to the call. I would have been ok with it but he was so defensive and argumentative, I gave up on him. Oddly I was sad...

Another do nothing day thwarted. As I anticipated, my internet went down at 10:30 am. It went up eventually but I was on the phone with Comcast all day. Talking to people at Comcast is the definition of being gaslit. All day long. They're contradicting each other and themselves all day...

It was quite a struggle today. I was determined to have a do nothing day to give myself some space. My neighbor was banging around in the evening. I'm still guessing (or hoping?) that he's moving out and cleaning up. I'm feeling apprehensive about the next neighbor. Also worried about my...

According to this article, this statistic is not true. The statistic of births where the father of record is not the father is closer to 1% or maybe less. Many reasons for the misattribution, mostly grabbing headlines and creating false impressions. For instance, that myth about a large...

For a short time, I used to buy scratchers for entertainment. I had a budget for how much I was willing to spend on it. I kept a spreadsheet to keep track of how much money I was spending and how much money I won. I was mostly in the black. I got bored after a while but as entertainment...

No, didn't see it at the time, but I do remember it was a popular movie. Cher, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer and Jack Nicholson. Dream cast at the time. It isn't streaming anywhere at the moment.

I don't think so. I haven't seen the movies. I just think the show starts off with the expectation that the vibe makes sense because of the movies. It takes a while for it to make sense, for me anyway.

Last night, I planned my do nothing day. I downloaded some audiobooks and some videos that would be calming and easy to listen to. But alas, it wasn't to be. I got up from a bad dream. Then my neighbor was banging around. That's the one selling his house, so maybe they moved out. Then my...

Happy Anniversary! May you have many more years together.

Not trying to sell you on it, but Good Witch was a slow start for me. I didn't realize that there were 5 or 6 movies with the name The Good Witch, with the same actress and the same theme before the show. Some people were already fans from the movies. The magic part started off really...
