Gym Report

I did 15 hard minutes on the treadmill and 13 hard minutes on the elliptical. I gave my self 2 minutes off because I can.

It's a cloudy day so no sun glare which was really appreciated. Not too many peops there. I haven't seen the cute older gay couple in forever. I hope they are ok.

Today's Basket

The developer who created the camera phone app I used to use and favored until it quit working says it will be fixed soon. I so hope so cause I do not like this one very much at all.

But, I do like this bear. He's fuzzy and soft.

Story time and other bits

My brother's son and his daughter were visiting the shop this afternoon. My brother 'buzzed' this photo which I love - that's his wife, Dana, and a bunny who's name I do not know.

I think my new router is not so happy. I'm getting horrible response times. I can take this laptop and plug it into the modem and get 30-40 mbps. I can then plug in the router, plug this laptop into the router and get 2-6 mbps. I'm trying now to identify all devices with IP and mac addresses. Then I might start unplugging and checking and adding back in one at a time to see if it's a traffic issue or one device is causing a problem.

Just now I had yet another issue with this laptop. Yesterday at one point I rebooted and it came back up creating a new user account. WTF? I did a restore and got me back. Then this afternoon I got a message about a duplicate IP address and when I plugged in an ethernet cable, I got the blue screen of death. When it came back, again, creating a new user. Another restore and I'm back but now Chrome won't work. I had to uninstall and reinstall Chrome to get it work work.

And now, the internet speed is sometimes ok and sometimes not but still the best right after a router reboot.

My compute karma is smelly today. But, happily, I can leave it alone until tomorrow. I don't even have anything planned for tomorrow so I can do network poking without having to worry about work or anything else.

Tonight is blackout night. Seattle City Light is turning off our electricity at 9:30 p.m. They say it will be back at 6 a.m. Wonder if I can sleep in dead quiet? I have two battery operated clocks - one is over the fireplace but one is an old timey alarm clock. If they actually hold off until 10, I won't even miss any TiVo'd shows.
