64.28571428571429% of me is a huge nerd! How about you?
Back online at last. Paid about twice as much as I'd expected to for ethernet; on the bright side, it's paid up through June, so either I'll have net through then or I can hit up whoever moves in here next for some of the cash. My ethernet card appears to have a slightly loose jack; swapping cables mostly fixed the problem, but if I pop off/online a bit it's because I'm kicking the cable by accident.
Haven't been doing much with my downtime, either. Reading UA stuff, playing a lot of Pikmin. T'ai chi in the mornings, some contact juggling practice in the evenings. Cogitating, reflecting, and wondering. Listening to Hobo Sapiens and Donna Lewis (and two more distant musical styles are hard to imagine).
I've not made any horrible disasters in the apartment yet, either. Closest I've come is trying to burn through Maureen's rather nice teapot last night. Lesson learned: check carefully which burner you turn on. (The lesson of "store the teapot somewhere other than a burner" would have been learned if there were anyplace else to store the teapot.) Canned mushrooms and store-bought alfredo and some oregano works pretty well on pasta, though I think I'll want some red sauce for the tortellinis. (too. . . much. . . cheese. . .) Got my water heater fixed the same day I called to complain about it, too. This is downright creepy.
