Where to begin
I haven't fallen off the planet, just been away for a while. Well to start with I've been sick for the past two weeks. It started abruptly Tuesday morning before last, and lasted through this past Friday. I think I've got it mostly licked now, which is good because I get my flu shot on Thursday.
Lots of stuff has happened in the past two weeks. Yesterday I finally got my natural gas bill for the gas (or lack of) that I've used since moving in. I now know that I get to pay $6.50 every month for the convenience of having the ability to use gas when I need it. Yes, I got a bill for $13.18 for the past two months where I used no gas. I was rather amused or annoyed, I cannot decide which.
Brian came up to visit last weekend (yes during the cold). We had a pretty good time considering. We played tourist and I got to show him around the small area of the city that I know. As the temperatures continue to drop around here, by the next time he comes there will be snow on the ground.
Work is picking up. I've been having more fun. Some of my jobs are good and intellectually challenging, others are not. I've spent way too much time this week converting experimental videos from one format to another. Between not having the software I needed to not having the processing power, it was always one thing or another holding me back.
