The power did go out last night or really this morning at 3:08. It was back on again before 4. That has better be it for power interruptions for a looooooong fucking time.
It was the first time I got to see my UPS in real action - the last power outage was too soon after the first one and the UPS wasn't charged up again. The first time was way too long. But this morning, hit the power button on the desktop computer back on and it came right back to the way I had left it with no intervention from me. Tres nice.
It's lovely and cool in here this morning. Last night, it got a little toasty before I went to bed so I had the A/C on for about an hour. Fixed the probably perfectly. Looks like tomorrow is going to be the same as today. Totally doable.
I'm fretting a little about prescriptions for my two main inhalers. On Friday, I sent the request to the doctor. I did it online so I can see I sent it and requested the correct pharmacy. He's never ignored those requests but nothing's showing up yet on Walgreens Online. They are not the swiftest so probably it's just in their slow pipeline. Once you get into refill mode, it's easy to track them but the first time is kind of blind. And slow. I have 30 days before I run out so it's not an emergency just a baby sitting job until I am sure Walgreens is on board. Also, I'm curious about how much it will cost me and I won't find that out until they ship.
Today's swim is at 11 and that and the ballgame at 5 are it for the calendar. In fact this week is pretty clear of obligations. Nice.
I think I'll go reset the clock on the microwave... again...

I was unable to not buy a new Roamio TiVo. I found one that would enable me to save $119 on the entire package (hardware and lifetime service). Then I called TiVo to see if they could match it or do better and, nope. So... rather than exercise self control, I just pulled the trigger. If I sell the bedroom one, great. If not, oh well.
I can't take it with me.
But, geez, at my age, wouldn't you think I'd have acquired some self government??
My swim this morning was great. For the first 15 minutes, I was the only swimmer in the pool and then another guy showed up. At no time, during the hour I was there, did any swimmer have to share a lane. It was wild. One of my favorite life guards was on duty so I asked him, since there wasn't a crowd to watch, would he please check my stroke. I always see swimmers who's feet and legs drag way below them. And while I 'feel' like I'm doing it right, It's cool to have someone else check. So he watched me and said my back half is fine and the only thing he could see that he might change was that I was lifting my head up too high and needed to just swivel it to the side to breathe and then keep it in line with the line at the bottom of the pool. So I worked on that for the hour. It was good.
