It was a horrible day outside. We’re finally heading into winter, so that means rain until we get a nice week in February or something. That’s not quite true, but at least it mostly keeps the Californians out. In any case, it was a good day to hole up and finish watching last weeks TV and some football games. The only responsible things I did were to pay bills and take my ballot down to the library. If nothing else, it should reduce the number of annoying phone calls I get.

Unfortunately, I think it might reduce the my total number of phone calls to NOTHING, but I suppose it’s better than having to listen to people try to influence my vote. Too late, I’m a yellow dog democrat.

So, I switched to Comcast about a week-and-a-half ago, and in a week I’d downloaded 79G which is 31% of my download limit. Wow. And I’m not even sure that’s as much as I could be doing. I haven’t signed up for Netflix streaming or done any external backups of my computers. I’m just guessing that a 250G cap is not enough for geeks.

I’m still in the middle of catching up with last week’s TV shows even though there were a lot of shows missing because of baseball. My DVR locked up and I had to try watching the shows online so that added even more to the amount I downloaded. I should probably take it easy since I went to see Fred the massage guy and he found all sorts of weirdness, like my mid-back muscles being locked up as well as my calf muscles. Not exactly where I was expecting it, but that’s where we found it. Oh, well.

Three more days before I leave for Japan!
