Phone was finally fixed today (hooray), so now I'm racing around online trying to catch up. It seems like more than a week went by for some reason. I was really discombobulated without having the lure of an online hour or two to get me through my morning studio time. Not that I have to make myself go be creative or else, but it was a routine that was working really well for me, and I felt adrift without that routine.
I replaced that with reading instead, and read a whole lot of books last week, including (finally!) Twilight, which I read in less than a day.
It keeps raining, and I keep taking pictures of it, since that is what is going on.
These are from waiting in the car one recent evening, for my son to finish up his martial arts class.
I think the neon lights are really beautiful being spread out and combined in the rain. Especialy the purple cloud created from the red/blue OPEN sign.
This Cake video of their song "No Phone" perfectly illustrates the current situation at home: No Phone!
AAckkkkk.
No dial tone, thus no DSl. And no repair appointment until Tuesday next week. grrrrr.
Although I did see three AT&T trucks cruising around the neighborhood this afternoon, fingers crossed that they are fixing the problem right now this very minute. I have a feeling the outage is due to the recent mudslide which took down power poles and the phone lines with them. We didn't lose our phone service even though the power was out though. Just after a few very windy days. I bet they didn't re-hang the phone lines correctly. As a layperson guessing that is..
So if you're trying to call me, hopefully you have my cell number.
At least there is free wifi at the coffeeshop down in town which is where I'm posting from. Sitting here drinking expensive chai and watching the rushing river way down below.
Well, that is one way to lessen the interruptions at home and get some work done in the studio, I got a lot accomplished today. No internet, no interrupting phone calls, pretty cool. But more on that later, with pictures.
