Twilight Zone realization:
When looking at a fic with psychic characters, and back in June I decided my lead had a peptic ulcer about to burst. Early this month a close family member had a peptic ulcer and emergency surgery, when there is no history in the family. Brother said I was not to write about these things again…
(no more real ailmenta)

She’s recovering, though anything more than lurching to/from WC is a challenge. Her appetite is still wonky from meds (Ie she hated a recipe that tasted fine)
The problem is more my primary aide called out today and I’m physically miserable... My brother is harried because his car has been broken down since before she got sick and he needs daylight to work on it (and he has a date Sat)

This was one of those weeks, losing connectivity for days was not the low point: ?ulcer? surgery for my mother is… feh.
-
TY. It was an ulcer, that burst. She’s in the ICU and running a fever last I talked to her. Brother’s visiting her a lot. She should come home in a week, but that will be messy. (The dog kept pushing her off her own bed and is v stubborn)
Unfortunately, it leaves me alone with the dogs and no aide for assistance for the next 17 hours. (because my agency is full of shite) My two regular aides are taking extrs hours but tonight is empty. gvkjhkjhjjkg

Wonderful way to enjoy a heat wave: spend 8 hours trying to figure out why email took a powder 8pm last night. settings are fine, but cannot connect. whee!
(even the eweb inteface was down for 6 hours) maybe proxy settings? or I forgot to sacrifice a chicken on Bill Gates’ birhtday) email spotty until further notice
-
took 48 hours of pain, but it looks like proxy server settings that affected ONLY the email program, a BFE service, and new AV.
My ISP is discontining thePOP3 110 port and switching to 995. I spent WWednesdayon the phone with comcast. but late afternoon my mom’s comp was fine. so it was not the modem/router/sever settings. the authentication wasn’t happening and there was not way to manually change it in the settings. the popup was the only way and the popup never appeared as it didn’t make a connection… ALL other programs/updates/sites seemed fine.

the servers are up. My email client cannot connect, it looks like 50% chance either my AV or firewall is blocking the login popup and the email client doesn’t have the login anymore. Pop3:por110 was supposed to go byby, but I’ve been using recommended port995 for a good while. or 2)I can’t help but think port 995 isn’t accepting connections at all, and my client never puts up the login window without the connection.

Decided to finally put an image in my profile banner. but how do you represent cross-genre interests? <u portrait leans fantasy, so the banner went SF and I can’t draw.
Honestly I’m avoiding some paperwork until after the banking day ends...

Finished a story that I’m not sure if it’s a novella or novelette over the weekend. I’m casting around to start another original, but feel no sparks. (while a handful of semi fanfic clamored for seed starts last month) …need more time!!

My ISP stopped sending me emails at midnight. Seems the upgrades require pwd change. It would not have been a bad thing if they told us instead of watching no email come for at least 12 hours.
Just to make it more fun, upgrading my mail apps password has hit a really, really fun snag. It looks like it is downloading emails dating back a decade and tying itself in knots. At least 5k messages, including a lot of back and forths about my earliest fanfiction that I thought lost when tech issues deleted my archives.
Heading toward 6k emails… oy vey.

Tourist postcard showing moonlit beach: “Welcome to sunny Barovia!”
I’m looking forward to my trip! I get sunburn easily.

In small print on the postcard is a scrawled comment (to the tune of the Bob Hope song) ‘Fangs for the memories...’
The Neverwinter free MMO endgame campaign looks to recreate the essentials of Ravenloft: Vistani, tarokka cards. and gothic mood. It took all my gaining time last night to install the 7gig update so I didn’t start any of the plot...

shavit, I wanted to delete a duplicate, sorry about removing responses.
I’m not quite mad enough to delete them all to save time. I’m deleting dupes and doing a cleanout of things I really don’t need like old news and subscriptions I never read. I’m hoping to reduce the inbox unopened at least 1k a day until I’m back at the bad-enough 6k I was at last week. Even my trash bin had 40k...
Sa:6k>43k>36k S:34k

That many is a massive load on the app. My open emails were all closed and most actions are just plain sluggish, like opening. In a bit over 23 hours I’ve removed over 9k dupes from the inbox, plus just a general cleanout and reorg…
But losing two days of writing because I’ve been ticked is adding to the annoyance.

Our local station has cancelled regular programming for flailing about a massive noreaster… which still hasn’t produced an inch of snow. Yapping about something that hasn’t happened, when I want my Jeopardy.

Ah, February, when the weather pattern resembles a roller-coaster, and my brain wants to hibernate...

We had a yard puddle that took a quarter of the yard. If it had frozen, we could open a skating rink among the trees.
I keep getting surprised by which dog wants out in the cold and which would rather come in from the cold RIGHT NOW!

With tomorrow’s bloodwork, medical issues should slow down. Yay! If I can close down my epistolary fic, that time can be moved toward attacking my dusty original story…
