- Fri, 23:13: @comcastcares Comcast is blocking a set of IP's on my account-calling/chatting support isn't getting me anywhere. May I email you details?
Aug. 10th, 2013
I did get the attention of a ComcastCares guy on Twitter and sent him the details of the issue. I finally figured out I could get on my phone and easily flip from Verizon to Comcast to check pings and tracerts. Everything is fine on Verizon. Broken on Comcast. It could be so much worse. It's just annoying.
Today I'm off to the pool in just a bit. Class starts at 8:30 and I'd like to get in some laps before then. I'm not sure what's happening after class. This time of year there is so much road construction and roads blocked for events it's not easy to get to some parts of town so I'm cautious about roaming wherever. I'd like to get some breakfast but there really isn't any place I love anywhere easy to get to from the pool on a Saturday. And I don't really have any errands I need or want to do.
So I might just come on home. Or come close and stop at Denny's.
I have no other plans for today. A free day. Nice. Plus, it's not supposed to be as hot today.

My 6 pack is dented...
Aug. 10th, 2013 12:47 pmMy 6 pack (conveniently hidden from view by multiple layers of fat) feels like it's been abused. And my lower back seems unable to carry the load... I wonder if maybe it wasn't ready to swim that mile yesterday. It will learn. I did a half mile today before class and when I was stretched out swimming it felt a little better. When I was walking around shopping is when I really noticed it. Weird.
After the pool, I went to IHop. There's a fairly nice one between here and the Saturday pool. Today there were several groups ahead of me and the lady at the desk was telling people it would be 20-30 minutes. She told me, for 1 that it would be about 20. So I said ok and figured I'd sit down and scope out an alternate plan on my phone. Before I could get to it, though, they called my name and sat me at a perfectly fine table. Food was good. Service was good. Screaming children were far enough away not to bug me. It was fine.
Then I went to the Dollar Store for really no good reason and killed $10. It was fun. I love school supply time. I did get Zoey a new collar. I actually got her one to wear and a backup for when that one goes. Safety cat collars with bells for a buck??! Quelle bon! (Most of the stuff in the Dollar Store has French and/or French and English labels. It cracks me up. I love the cat toy section or rather the Jouets Pour Chats section.)
I stopped at the Grocery Outlet and then came on home.
Ooops the collar slides to too big way too easily. Ok, added a knot to it and now we're fine. Stunning, as a matter of fact.
Now I'm home with nothing that has to be done. Well, I do need to put away the laundry so I can read on the fish bed.
I'm still reading Gulp by Mary Roach. It's a fascinating look at the trip that food takes from mouth to asshole. It's on the Kindle and really interruptable so I keep reading other stuff and somehow only pick up Gulp when I'm in restaurants. This morning's reading covered the upper parts of the elimination system. While Roach is a gifted scientist and writer with hilarious flare, there has to be better things to read over breakfast... or any meal.
The sun has been out a little today but right now it is cloudy and breezy and wonderful.
