Back in the saddle again

Fuck man, I just spent the most boring 36 hours of my life yesterday and today. It was like the olden days - no internet, and we don't have a TV, and it was too damned cold to do anything outside even if I was interested in any sort of physical labor which I can assure you I was not. I read one complete book, started another, and played approximately 9000 games of solitaire. I'd read for a while, get up and fuck with that asshole dog Jack, read some more, fuck with Legal Lucy, read for a while, fuck with Lisa, read for a while, then get up and go fuck with the chickens. 

At one point I was ready to head into town to see who I could fuck with there, and given the circumstances, I'd probably have gotten away with it. 
"Mr Lane, why on earth do you wantonly run over Mrs Roarke's one eyed cat sunning itself on the road?" 
"Ah, I was bored, Officer. My fucking router broke down and I was running out of shit to keep myself amused." 
"I understand, Mr Lane. You're free to go." 

But I'm up and running now and did a few posts for the rest of the day.

  11. Computer went down Thanksgiving Day. Read some books for the second or seventh time. Almost watched a couple of Hallmark Christmas movies, but caught myself in time. Counted ethnic makeup of TV commercial actors. Got computer back about three hours ago, but it was time for my nap, so this is my first anything in a week.

    1. re:
      "diversity"

      December first while I waited at the credit union, I immediately noticed the lack of Caucasian folk on televisionprogramming advertising.
      The advertising had south Asians (aka 'curry Indians'), espanic folk, various shades of mulatto, and a few east Asians banging taiko drums.

      The last time I owned a television set was sometime last century, I have zero-zero-zero interest in televisionprogramming.
      I guess the world is passing me by...

    1. They're doing great. Matter of fact, I integrated them in with the two leghorns just a few days ago when the temps got down into the 20s at night, that way they had a henhouse and other chickens to huddle up with when it got cold. The brown leghorn still pecks at them a little but it's just a token effort - Ann and Jane are now big birds, almost twice the size of the other two, and they can easily kick their asses if needed.
      They're friendly birds, too. The leghorns run from me, Ann and Jane run to me.

    2. Wow. I am not the "ranch-type", so I really appreciate your detailed explanations on this type of thing. Glad to hear that the girls are doing well.

      Keep up the great things that you do. In fact I just laughed/cried my way through your FB postings. Totally hilarious!

      Take care!

  15. With a new router, be sure to enter your own SSID and password. Just to F with the neighbors, name your router "NSA Surveillance Van 17".
