    It appears that even though Comcast decided to hide behind the Xfinity name, their service still sucks.

    We're on free TV only. We have a 2nd HDTV & a powered antenna (needed to boost signal strength and to 'dial in' certain stations) which I really need to set up.

    You'd think that working for a university would mean that there are some intelligent people somewhere, but no.

    I got an email this morning at 5:30 saying campus was closed until noon because of a power outage. I had already gotten myself ready for the day as I needed the extra time to get BabySquirrel ready since DaddySquirrel is Cali for wok.I took my time getting the babe ready for daycare because I was still going to take her as to not throw her off of her schedule. We just weren't going to be in at our usual time. Then I get an emergency alert via text saying the power was restored and we were to go ahead and open at 8am. BabySquirrel wasn't ready and it was 7:30am at this point. There was no way that I was going to be in at 8. So I texted my supervisor and said I'd be in when I could. She was not happy with how this whole thing was being handled either as she wasn't planning on coming in since she had a doctor's appointment that afternoon and saw no point in coming in at noon to leave at 2. She was planning on working from home, but then planned on coming in now that we were opening at 8.

    I get babysquirrel ready and off to daycare. I come waltzing in about 8:30. I open up my email and see that another announcement said that we'd be opening up at 10am. I was already in my office, so I said, "Fuck it!" I'm staying.

    They should have just stayed closed until noon.

    He immediately put on pants when he realized what had happened and went to buy coffee.

    Somehow, my network's time zone got screwed up so it thought I was on mountain time. My alarm went off an hour early. I was not happy.

    Job interviews and their inane questions. Here is how a job interview should go: You have money. I need money. I will do work and then you give me money.

    Omfg, came home to find my husband had basically done nothing all day, and wasn't ready to go to tonight's event when I got home.

    I'm so irritated.

    Look I get that we've been friends for years, and that we have the same sense of humor and often bounce off each other... but if you're going to be that flirty that people keep thinking we're a couple I'm going to have to either ask you to tone it down or give me a chance because believe it or not I'm not a eunuch.

    Nothing bad happening....actually things are progressing positively.
    It's just that I'm tired of the game and the games.

    Why can't they just do what I want??
    I just want...eh, nevermind.

    Fuck it, I'm just going to have a good time.
    But I know it would be better to have someone to have a good time with...

    Dammit mom, why did you teach me all these values and stuff??
    Life would so much easier if I was a shallow douchebag.
    But, NOoooo...I have to "complex" and caring. :rolleyes:

    I've been fighting a headache for several days. It's coming to a head tonight, and the hubs just got home from a week at work. Stupid commies.

    Earlier tonight we stopped at an ice cream store and picked up a couple of dishes of praline pecan and headed east out of town to watch the lunar eclipse. The city street turned into a county road and we'd soon left most of the city lights behind and had a great view parked at a roadside picnic area.

    The moon sure did start to look red as the eclipse progressed, especially once we left the city lights behind.

    At the ice cream place an older gentleman was trying to explain to his two grand kids how an eclipse of the moon worked. "Awesome!" said one of them. "Will it be on TV?":rolleyes:

    We had too much low & heavy cloud coverage, I couldn't even see a trace of the moon.

    We could see the beginning of the eclipse through some light cloud coverage. By the time it was 3/4 eclipsed or so the clouds were too thick to see much of anything.
