I’ve deleted a handful of links from the blogroll. I hope they were all defunct links, but I am quite often extremely clueless. If you’re not on the list and you either should be or were once, tell me. I would be happy to fix it.

Beginning the morning with a bang and a whimper
Columbia Gas keeps estimating my meter reading instead of reading the meter. It’s in the basement and apparently the meter reader is a lazy bum. I say that affectionately.
In any case, I set up a special appointment for tomorrow with said meter reader bum. This morning, I went to the basement and decided, while down there, to doublecheck the basement door was unlocked so there could be no excuse for meter reader bum.
And then I fell through the stairs.
It sounds very dramatic, but it just means that I ended up on my buttocks on a lower stair. The one I stepped on was on the floor.
Boobytrapped!
In any case, it wasn’t that big of a deal, though I have to fix the stairs before tomorrow.
But my knee! It’s the size of a small linebacker. Ow. Ow.
Welp, I got my raise
It’s a good raise. 10%. The sad thing is that it just means I’ll be a hair less broke. I can’t stand doing the math right now. It’s depressing as hell.
