Had yet another island-wide "communications outage". Basically cell and internet service crapped out at some point and just came back a while ago.

The Russians are trying to isolate you! Watch out for their invasion force.

:shock: :lol: Opened Chrome on my phone in the break room at work and found out I forgot to close a tab with... less than worksafe friendly content.

Thank God no one else was in here.

:cry:

My furnace stopped working over the weekend, so I did not have any heat until Tuesday afternoon. On Sunday night, the low was 29 and I woke up on Monday Morning to a house that was 50. On Tuesday, it warmed up to about 60 or so.

Thankfully, somebody came by Monday and Tuesday to fix it. I was able to do some things to at least get some heat during the day, but at night, it was completely gone at night. Do not recommend it at all.

That's rough, Markies, but I'm glad to hear you were able to get it repaired within a few days. Hopefully your heat continues to work okay.

We've had two sunny days here, it's been nice that the weather's warming up a bit. I've made an effort to get away from my desk for a bit while working, and take a short walk to enjoy it.

Sorry to hear that. If the weather where you are is like the weather where I live, not having heat would be hell.

But hopefully the weather all over gets and stays warmer.

Anyone else having a hard time sometimes visiting the site? A few times today and yesterday the site seemed to not work, usually in the morning.

I got a second job and I'm finally pretty comfortable financially as long as things work out here. The closet will be expanded even further and I will complete my Virtual Boy library 8)

Congrats and welcome to the club, fellow moonlighter.

My secret is a 16oz Reign each morning if i work that day. I order it by the case on Amazon, a 12-pack every two weeks usually does it and I save a few bucks over buying a dozen cans from Food Lion.

I prefer to work a lot, I usually feel better when my schedule is more full. I was working 3 jobs and going to school full time in the evening this time a year ago.

I don't drink caffeine, nicotine is my habit. Kind of has to be since I'm in the industry.
