Wanting to drop a nuke on the computers. Just because they're ticking me off.

Wondering if the drive home will be better or worse than the drive in.

Snowblowed my drive way (10 inches). Then off to court for another day of jury duty.

Get to court, and the judge hasn't made it in yet because he didn't think the jurors would make it in.

Procrastinated blowing the driveway yesterday when it was mild, not it's -10c. Off to freeze my butt now.

Kicked TWC to the curb today.

Price went up - AGAIN - so I called about it, supposedly got on another promotion, which then when I got the bill was $20 a month higher than promised. Called to complain about that and the supervisor said that is just how it is and there was absolutely no other promotion available to me. He was kind of a jerk.

So, this week I got another internet solution set up, called TWC to disconnect, and they offered me a higher speed at a lower price. Hah, amusing, since I was just told that there was nothing available. Their customer satisfaction would be far higher if they didn't play stupid games and require the threat of disconnection just to keep prices in check.

They ALL do that game. I had to do it to Rogers for cable, internet and cell phones. Shaved $100/month but it's just for a year on the internet promo so have to repeat it. It is tiresome.

Who did you go with?

Privately set up long range wifi. Almost the same download speed as I was at, faster upload than I had, ping is still only 20-ish ms to Google on average.

Today I'm trying to get stuff caught up at work but this one system is totally driving me nuts.

Resetting up my modem/router. It went haywire last night.

So you are borrowing bandwidth? :wink:

The one system is not... You already are.

Yeah, via a friend. It is mutually agreed on. His idea, actually.

Did some running around, put 22.5 gallons in the EXT, then hit up the post office to drop a few things off. Had my first experience at the scrap/recycling yard, decided I wasn't gonna use those SS and LT suspension parts I scored years back, and had those 5 rotors taking up space in the garage. Nothing that will break the bank, but a little extra pocket change is always nice. :yes:

Then hit up the grocery store to stock up on grub and such for the next week or so. :thumbsup: Now back at the crib, camped out on the couch, waiting for some football.

Spent most of the day on the phone with the insurance company. Got side swiped on the highway and the driver took off, managed to catch up when he brake checked me when I was attempting to get his license plate number (got it).

No idea, his plates were expired when he eventually stopped when I flagged down officers after the chase. I wasn't in a hurry to buy a dashcam, but this whole ordeal has me wanting to go out and buy one.

I've had one for over a year now. I used to use my cell phone in a windshield mount as a dash cam previously using a dash cam app.

They totaled the truck out, $3,500 worth of damage. Currently trying to see if I can get a reimbursement for the Engine rebuild back in May '16 as well as what I spent on the Rotors/Pads/Shocks & Struts.

Going to miss it along with the V8...
