windows still updating

this is why i don't like this update process and try to time it when i am not using the computer and why i won't let it happen automatically... it's been a half hour and those 18 important updates are still updating, which sucks because i wanted to go online and update this (e)thereal blog and not sit and wait for this long without using the computer and i may have to do yet another reboot after windows does it's updating and this is why i ought to have a few computers like i used to have but speaking of a no income lifestyle there has been no word from the job interview so i am guessing i didn't get it cuz the president was so eager to have somebody on board asap so alas, while reinitiating income would have been a great idea, i am shifting back into the retirement mode and gonna enjoy the summer off without buying the stuff i would like to buy which is ok since i don't really need anything that bad (the car ain't at all pretty and fancy-dressed folk might not want to ride in it, but it runs better than most and is still safe cuz all that's wrong with it are cosmetics and some maintenance issues, though the brakes ought to be checked out soon and i have this laptop working just fine and i love the free time)...

anyway, going on an hour now... it's been installing most of that time, so it's not a brighthouse issue (for a change... i did have to call them again to change the channel again but this time i got the site address so i can control the channel myself as i did after the last move and i already switched off the main channels and we shall see how it goes... you'd think the "auto" feature would automatically select the channel with the least traffic but their software is apparently as problemmatic as their equipment so i'll just adjust manually and hope for the best...

windows still updating... installing update 17 of 18 now... sheesh...

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
