Instantly Not Quite.

 I just went to stick some pop in my fridge, thinking about eating some chips.  I noticed the piece of fish left over from supper the other night, and grabbed that.  Grabbed a 32 gram bag of Old Dutch Salt and Vinegar potato chips, and found myself with instant fish and chips.  Sort of.

Double Outage.

 Modern technology is so useful, but so annoying if it doesn't work.  I woke up this morning to find the Wifi in my apartment had quit.  It took until this afternoon for the techs to come along to fix it.  So no Internet.  On top of that I found out this afternoon that my cell phone wasn't working, and of course I couldn't check my account online because I had no Internet access.  I eventually tried a reboot, which has worked.  I guess it decided not to play nice because I was in Alberta on Tuesday and Wednesday, and disconnected at some point.  And if you don't use your phone, you don't know you're not getting calls because it's not working.

Defeated By The Common Cold.

 I was supposed to have eye surgery today.  It's not something I wanted to do so soon, or of course at all, but had come to accept it.  But I came down with a cold the last few days, and so my surgery has been put off.  All because of a virus that most of us just find a nuisance.  

Mirrorless.

 O.J. Simpson has died, apparently of cancer.  He was 76.  

After he was acquitted of murdering his former wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman he stated he would try to find the real murder.  This makes me wonder if he didn't have any mirrors in his house.

Welcome To 2024.

 In a way I'd like to go back.  But I know better.  I might improve my life a bit, but going back say ten years wouldn't stop all the terrible crap that has happened.  Like Donald Trump.  

Hopefully your 2024 is better than your 2023.  Unless you're evil of course.  If you are, like say Ron DeSantis, all I can hope is that your realise the harm you've done and repent of your ways.
