No, not today. What an un-fun day. There seems to be no rest for the weary in this particular episode. I am actually bored with my derned 0-skunk-30 walk. Bored enough that it is actually tempting to find excuses not to walk. Teensy tinesy little pop-up thunderstorms over on the west side of the state? Maybe I shouldn’t walk… That would be a BAAAAAAADDD thing! I know that. I am making myself slog on…

I was hoping that today would be a smoooooooth day after one of the craziest weekends on earth. Soooo much to process. Alas, it was not to be. I got halfway down the street today and the damn Ninja’s taaaarrrr light was on. Yes. Again. I hate dashboard lights even when they don’t signify imminent danger. Supposedly it’s a different taaarrrr this time. I hope that all of my taaaarrrrs are inflated to the proper goddamn pressure and stay that way for a while. Like a couple years…

And then, after work (which was very smooth, by the way), I got home and derned if the frickin’ internet cable service was out again. I am getting to be an expert on unplugging / unscrewing various connections. No luck. I tried to call Comcast… Their answer? Something like, “We are experiencing a high volume of calls and even if you could get through, we couldn’t tell you if there was a service outage in your area.” In other words, “Screw you.” What am I paying for again?

Eventually, the GG 1) got Grandroobly’s lawnmower working (does that mean we can take the *Landfill* Lawnmower over to the place lawnmowers go to die?) 2) Came inside and figgered out that the *#%@ing internet wasn’t working (again) and somehow his unplugging / replugging touch actually *worked*. Sigh. Why is it that (most) males manage to deal these things more calmly. What kind of karma do they have that I don’t? 3) Checked out the Ninja’s taaarrrs and filled a taaaarrrr with air (different taaarrrr than the last time). Okay, I’m sure my taaarrrs are okay for now. If this happens again in a few weeks… … …

I love the Ninja but I am yearning for my loverly old Dogha (2001 Honda Accord V6) at this point. With its snow-able tires… I am so thinking about buying another Dogha. Not ready yet but not looking forward to commuting on “performance” taaaarrrs next winter.
