Rather then fire up this too-noisy machine, I've put reflections onto paper with pencil. (Isn't that an odd concept, eh?)

And then there is that TV. I got it. I installed it. I even -- reluctantly -- agreed to keep the cable connection from the dreadful company that now controls that line into this place.

It's good to be able to watch baseball games again. I think my viewing time has increased a bit since even the shows I've already seen look so much different on a clear 27-inch screen compared to the partially obscured and fuzzy 13-incher I'd been watching.
