Then I took a shower, went to the gas station and Library, then had a Moscow Mule in the back yard.

Unfortunately, it's so stinking dry this spring that I blew up a serious cloud of dust going over a few thin patches. Now our clean windows have a coating of dust. Don't tell the wife.

We were prepping a Jennie-O frozen turkey breast and found a ‘gravy starter’ tucked inside. Reviewing the many ingredients, we decided it wasn’t anything we’d use; nothing is easier than making gravy (drippings+corn starch+water=voila!). What ticks me off is that it added quite a bit of weight to the package so we paid extra $ for something we didn’t ask for and don't want. Guess we'll have to pay closer attention to the labels going forward and won't be buying that brand either.

So my internet went out on Friday at 6am. Trying to navigate the Verizon website and app has been a pure hellscape, with repeated requests to revalidate using a PIN which is denied arbitrarally, causing call to drop. If you do manage to get a warm body, they put you on hold or transfer the call will inevitably drops causing one to start the whole process again. Finally, they said it was a router problem, which was only 6 months old and no longer compatible with their service. Finally got bounced back to Sales at 5PM, who ordered a new router for me and waived the recurring fee (either $400 for a new router or $18/month for something paid for many times over). Anyway, I went to pick up said new router at the location indicated only to find that they don't stock equipment and I have to drive another 4 miles to a nondescript store in a strip mall. I finally get home and try to self-install which bombs out, necessitating another aventure into their website/app hellscape. About 18 hours after the initial outage, I'm back in service. I've never run into a company who is so blantant in their desire to piss off their customers. If only there were viable alternatives in my area.
