"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So I think ATT is running a racket.

They claim that Beau's data is close to his limit, but he doesn't use his phone for data AND he is on wifi all the time when he is at home. This is the 2nd time they've tried to run this game on me.

I think their data meters are unreliable.

Anyone else encounter this.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

now I'm emptying out my hot water heater to flush out the debris at the bottom. It's supposed to be done every year

There's debris? Never done that, never heard of it. How is it done? Now I'm fretting that my hot water heater is gonna kill me because I didn't clean it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thank you, Vortex.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It's supposed to be done every year--I've been here twelve years and never done it.

Oh, really? I...didn't know that. Also we're coming up on four years in this house, which is nothing short of mind boggling. We are lucky people.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Vortex, thank you for doing that. I know many of us wish we could be there with Maria today.

Welsh rarebit bread: [link]

My home maintenance book said it's supposed to be done yearly (the hwh flushing). The debris in the bottom is probably from rust in my pipes, according to the plumber.

So now I have 40 gallons of hot water draining into my front yard. I may regret this.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So MIT is offering this free online course on electronics and circuits, a pilot program, where you get a certificate if you successfully complete it. And it's making me just a tad pseudo-nostalgic for the road not taken. MIT invited me to apply, but I didn't, and of course very well might not have gotten in. But if I had, I think my life would look very different right now. I'm super happy with my life, honestly, but I sometimes miss using that part of my brain.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Vortex, I'm so glad you can go.
