If you like the mundane, stop here today

It is vacation time for the next 11 days. Kind of. It seems I can’t go a vacation period without having to interact with Dell or Verizon. This time I will be interacting with a Verizon store so they can properly install my wireless broadband program. It seems it wasn’t loaded up right the first time.

I spend so much time going in and out of Verizon stores, you’d think I’d get my own parking place. Perhaps a little placard like a disabled driver. I’m not making fun. I do technically qualify as disabled, just not where I can get a parking sticker. Maybe when I have to be dragged out of my truck and inside a place.

Next week I have some actual freelance work to do. I know, I know, vacation. But then I get to take what I consider a vacation. As I mentioned here before I am flying to El Paso to see an old friend for about four days, five days. You have to be a really good friend to put up with a visitor that long. But these people are the best. Also, it feels good to be writing for money again, even if it is a local welcome folks type.

Sorry I can’t write something better than mundane. Maybe later. I was thinking about writing a post  about Hale-Bopp, the Great Comet of 1997. Maybe 96. I know it was pretty great in 97. But maybe and later, as I and I alone, said.
