Sep. 1st, 2016 10:21 am::sighs:: And Comcast will now only let my cellphone and laptop use their service if I have the account number and Scott’s login information. Cordelia is still able to access the Comcast internet, so I have no idea why I can’t. Sadly, Scott didn’t write down that information where I could get at it and doesn’t remember it (I texted him at work and caught him on break). He suggested that I look on his laptop for the password, going to the Comcast account page, and the password is there, but it is, of course, encrypted and so not useful to me.
We still have Earthlink, so I can do DW/LJ and email, just not much else. I can’t do Slack or Imzy or Tumblr. Even Google is cranky about the Earthlink connection. It took about twenty minutes for my various email accounts to connect and download my messages.
I woke with a headache this morning, and Amerge and caffeine have only helped a very little bit. The headache had started before 4:30 this morning and got steadily worse. I’m really not sure what to do about it at this point. I’ve got nausea, so I’m reluctant to try naproxen. Maybe lying down with a cold pack would help…
I ended up letting the hold that expired yesterday go. Basically there was never a point when Scott had enough time to go downtown, and yesterday was terrible for me to try to go on my own. The whole morning, I waited for Comcast. Then I was talking to their support people and then recovering from that. By the time I could have managed it, Scott was home, and it was late enough that buses are rare (the frequency drops in half at 6 p.m.).
One friend came over last night, and we played Sentinels of the Multiverse. We went for a relatively easy villain and still had some major problems at first. We got very lucky on a couple of counts. I played the Wraith which is generally the easiest character for me to manage. Our guest played Legacy. I don’t remember what Scott played.
Scott’s parents are pressuring us to tell them which day we can spend with them. I suspect it will have to be Monday. Scott thinks that there’s only about a 40% chance he’ll have Saturday off and that, because he’s working 3 a.m. to 7 a.m. Saturday, he’s certain to get tapped if someone calls in or otherwise doesn’t show up. He’s definitely working on Sunday. Scott claims that we won’t stay late if we go on Monday. I’m not so sure he and I agree on 'early.' I would like to leave at 7:00 because that will get us home at 8:00.
