The rain held off for Russ and Janel yesterday and it’s rained all day today. It’s been nice. We’ve been quietly working or napping. Not much online activity what with ATT DSL dropping in and out continuously. At one point it was raining hard and the DSL was out as well as the satellite dish. I’m looking into cable for everything. I’m really tired of this bullshit. Our DirecTV DVR+TiV0 is dying anyway, so it’d be a good time to switch. The phone is the hard part about that – either it works great or Comcast screws you and you have NOTHING: no phone, no internet, no TV. All eggs in one basket is never a good thing, but hell, I’ve got no advantage now. Well, the phone worked, I guess that’s a small advantage.
It’s the last week before Comic-Con. I’m getting excited about it now. The plane fares are booked, the Con hotel is booked and I’ve got Amtrak figured out, we just have to decide how many layovers we want. I’ve also got to book a hotel in San Francisco (East Bay, specifically), once we hear where the rest of the family is staying.
Bernie’s on my mind. I can’t help it, it’s like a loose tooth. I just hope wherever she is, she’s not in pain. ::sigh:: I’m so very sad.
Mustn’t dwell. I think I’ll do some boring paperwork.
