dchenesWell, it was going to be a good week, and then I went to pay bills on Sunday night and discovered that yet again, somebody who isn't me has ordered Netflix on my credit card. So I called the credit card company and they basically said (with an accent that was hard to understand over the phone) go away and don't bother us, call Netflix. Which I did, and Netflix was most apologetic and blocked the card from any further usage, but I'm annoyed at the card company. If that wasn't the card with the longest history and the highest limit, I'd cancel it entirely.
Today was furnace maintenance day, which led to a lot of clanging around in the ductwork, and led me to diagnose furnace maintenance day rather than mice in combat boots. But since the heat wasn't going to come on and it's cold and wet out, I went and shut all the storm windows for the winter. I try to hold out for November, but it's not going to get any warmer in the next four days.
I did get to have bibimbap for lunch, though, because the H Mart bibimbap kit is good for about three bowls. And I had exactly enough rice left to make three bowls. So I get to have the last one tomorrow.
I stopped buying alcohol in mid-July, because I could see it becoming an expensive pandemic-related habit and I don't need the calories. But I'm sorely tempted to go buy something fairly strong for the election results. The question is whether I'll be drinking it in celebration, in which case it should be something I like, or in despair, in which case it should merely be something strong (and should really probably be Blithering Idiot, if I can find any.) Zombie Killer will do for celebrating; it's not as strong, but I like it and the name would be somewhat apt.
