Waiting for the cable guy

Yes: They can keep us at home for hours on end. He did show up and fixed the snow on the screen by replacing THE BLACK BOX. I left for the local coffee shop while it was still daylight.  While waiting and computer occupied I found a new blog to add - The Lunatics Asylum. I am not surprised I was drawn to it while waiting -  actually it has been six days since I called and the first time my guy could be scheduled was today. The author of the Lunatic Asylum is stuck at home taking care of his mother - and she is a piece of work.  He is a minefield of black humor - I think he is funny. Tomorrow is the shortest day of the year - not a good time to be without cable or computers.
