    It's not the manufacturer's fault, it's a genetic shortage of right-brain mice. indecision

    Complaint:  It's still snowing. indecision

    'Nother complaint:  I twisted my back again two days ago, and now it's reached peak hurt time. no  Ancillary complaint:  Since my back hurts, I can't go out to do my usual Tuesday uptown chores. frown

    Yet another complaint:  I have too much food thawed out.  Oh why, oh why, did I set myself up to eat too much too quickly again? frown

    Non-complaint:  I've gots lots of choices for my next several meals, or snacks, or indulgences. smileyyes

    Today's final complaint:  My local Jamestown, NY radio station that relays the WNED classical radio programs from Buffalo seems to have been off the air for at least two days now.  No more falling asleep to classical music at night?  OMG! sad Breaking a habit of 60 years is going to be hard to deal with.

    Just saw Sherlock Gnomes.  Now waiting again for taxi.

    ...'plaint:  woke up feeling like there are two pillows stuffed in my head and everything aches (even hurts to type).  Mind is in a fog so need to be a little more vigilant when performing tasks and moving about (already whacked my toe an the foot of the bed). Sore throat at least has abated replaced with a dry cough that kept waking me up at night. No appetite though need to eat something.  Picked up a couple cans of chicken soup yesterday when I went out for the Theraflu,

    Non 'plaint.  Have a Titan-X (Maxwell) on the way from someone who is really good at building computers and servers.  Fully tested and has all the hardware. The nice thing is the seller is letting me make monthly payments on it.

    Oh my complaint is my taxi is on its way I think but that is not the complaint.  I feel like I have to visit the restroom.

    Non-complaint:  I finally found a news blurb on the WNED Buffalo website that says that their simulcast station WNJA is off-air because of storm damage.  So maybe I'll have night sleeping music again soon.  yes

    ....excellent. 

    Need to get one of those compact music systems for my flat.  We have one 24 hour classical station here and I really miss listening to them.

    Speaking of missing,  While we know about Ed's reason for his departure from the thread, haven't seen much from Rezca or PS1 lately. Seems our ranks are thinning here.

  • TSasha SmithTSasha Smith Posts: 27,395

    Where is PS1?

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    think ps1borg said somethin about a big project?

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 42,074

    ...still he usually chimes in a couple times when he's busy.  Must be really big, hope it nets him a decent paycheque.

  • LeatherGryphonLeatherGryphon Posts: 12,195

    Non-complaint:  Night music!  Radio station is back on the air.  Yea! smiley  Also, today is my SS deposit day and I'm "rich" again!  Yea!  In fact I had significant money left over from the last check surprise that got immediately squirreled away into savings this morning. yes  I think I deserve a mini-adventure. enlightened

    Complaint:  Mini-adventure may be on hold.  It's not snowing anymore but there is 2 inches of snow out there and it's still freezing so I'm sure I'll have to scrape ice from the car unless I can wait until the sun does the job for me.  I'm tired of bundling up to go outside. frown

    my daylily (Luissa) is in a large pot. supposedly

    ...well looks like the chilly wet is finally behind us (wish this bloody cold were gone with it too).  60s today through the weekend with 70s next week definitely time to break out the Hawai'ian shirts.
