How would you know if she was in her invisible jet?

I hate how hard it is to find a good apartment in a small town. Texting, calling and emailing, getting no answers. Super frustrating.

Ask everyone you know - you never know who might know of something!

How would you know if she was in her invisible jet?

Oh, no!

IF it's NOT a jet, what is making that noise when she passes by?

Work with me?

The cable box goes on a TV.

I check the box - it seems like it's gone bad, so I bypass the box and run the cable directly into the TV.

Now? I have to have the TV rescan the channels - That takes ten minutes each time.

After I run the scan, some channels disappear and dead channels are put back into mix.
I re run the scan and then the TV tells me that the cable has gone bad.
After running to the store and buying replacement cables, pulling and attaching the new cables?

I have to pull out the directions and re-run the scan another 5 times before I finally get most of the channels back.


---------------

A TV that is smart enough to know what connection port I am using, it too stupid to know what kind of signal my cable company is using - STD, HRC, IIRC.
HUH?

Why do I have to re-scan the channel lists?

Again, smart TV, stupid hoops to jump thru.

Why is the sheet of directions an origami project - 16 different pages on a giant sheet of paper that has NO numbers or way to show in which order to read the darn thing?

And why are the instructions written in typeface small enough to give me a headache?

And why are the instructions written in advanced tech jargon?

"Choose the type of cable signal your provider is using?"

I think they are using electrons, I may be wrong?

I spent 3.5 hours messing with the dang thing before I 'fixed' it.

Now? I just have to take the cable box back and re-install it.

Fun times ahead?

The supermarket had watermelon slices, already on a foam tray and wrapped in plastic. They cost proportionately more than a whole watermelon, but I went ahead and bought a slice anyway because that's the portion I can use for just me. I like this time of year when summer fruit is available and delicious!

I'm thinking a good thought and saying a prayer for the people in Arizona and California who are dealing with hot weather and fires. Please be safe!

That is a great idea! I will as well. I was watching the news and my heart just breaks for them, some people looked so devestated I cried a bit. Can't really imagine that happening to our family and how we would cope. Life eh.

How are you doing in B.C.? I heard there are wildfires up there too...

I'm also thinking a good thought and saying a prayer for the people wherever they are who are dealing with hot weather and fires. Please be safe!

I bought a large bucket of sliced watermelon for 10 bucks - I saw the seedless whole melons for 4 dollars on my next trip!!!!

Dang, if I could make six dollars for slicing up fruit?

In my corner of the woods, you definitely could! Not to mention how much you could earn selling the cut-up packaged fruit to people who will quickly buy it! Watermelon, cantaloupe, mango... yes!

I know better than to bring up D.T. but... really? Now he is disrespecting transgendered people who are risking their lives for Americans, fighting for their freedom and protecting him and his entitled family from terrorists. He did not serve, neither will his kids and I am fairly sure his grandkids won't either. I have never been more emberassed for another human being in my entire life. sigh. Glad I'm Canadian

[mon]

One more thing, no disrespect but that guy needs to get his arse out of the White House and go back to doing what he does best. Stroking his own ego and being narcissistic whilst indulging himself in his endless pursuit of $$. He could care less about America and everyone on the planet knows it.

When I get a chance to go back to California I always stop at the little carts that sell fruit cups - The guy will chop it up while you watch and he tops it with a squeeze of lemon juice and a season salt called "Tajin".

For about 5 dollars you get a quart sized container with what is in season - usually watermelon, cantaloupe, mango, jicama, and pineapple.

Tajin is a lemon/salt/chili seasoning salt that goes really well with the tastes of the fruit.

As crazy as it sounds? Tajin is really good, sprinkled on a frozen fruit bar!!!

Sounds yummy! And because he cuts it up there I bet you could say, "No mango, please, I'm allergic," right?
