So. I have 20 hrs/wk of employment as a telefundraiser. Training is tonight and tomorrow. It should be less stressful than my previous job.
The physical connection between my modem and the cable that connects it to the high speed internet port is degrading so that I have to take it out and unplug it and restart the compter about eight times a day. I think I have bad internet karma: I haven't had internet access for four different reasons in the past two months. Did I spend time abusing some equivelent to internet ports in a past life? or an alternate dimension? I anticipate spending more time on hold with the Time Warner Cable guys today.
I've rented some good movies recently. I recommend The Station Agent for its low-key approach to film-making and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for its almost opposite approach: it's a high density, disorienting, idea-packed movie. I've also been rereading "Babel Tower" by A.S. Byatt, which is getting to be a comfort book for me. It is a fantastic book that encourages the reader's mind to soar.. I see new things in it every time I reread it.
