it has simplified your life. It's removed the choice to watch TV. That's simpler.

And actually it would. the technology is lower in that you don't have a remote capable of comunicating with all the devices.

So my girlfriend's family decided to not come back for another day.  So I may not end up seeing her at all for another month.

I'm grumpy because I just figured out that my bus isn't running tomorrow, because it's a state holiday.  I appreciate that it's a holiday and all, but some people still have to be at work.  I do NOT want to walk for an hour and a half to be at work at seven AM.  Down with public transportation!

That stinks, MsFish. Did you find a ride or something?

Yeah, but I had to walk home.  That's one long walk.  Good excercise though.

My milk went sour. :P Didn't realize it till I'd ruined a whole bowl of cereal. I don't have any other breakfast stuff in the house, so I'm going to have to get ready for work without eating, which I hate. Oh! Wait! I have bread. I can make toast, at least. But no orange juice and no milk to wash it down. Yuck.

Eating out is strictly forbidden right now. I'm trying to reserve what little money I have for getting out of the hole that got me here.

Heh. I had toast. I even had peanut butter and jelly on it. And the bread was whole grain, so nicely filling.

Sometimes I'm tempted to set up one of those "take pity on me and give me money!" websites, just to see if people would do it. Pay my student loans! :)

I'm grumpy because the friend that I was mooching off of for my server hosting quit the company, so they dropped the project and shipped all the computers to Israel. And he forgot to tell me this was happening.

My other friend that I was going to turn to decided to drive across three states today instead of being right where I needed him so I could make him do my bidding.

Oh, and I stayed up late to read Harry Potter, so I'm now tired too.
