My God, having functional working internet today is as important to daily life and routine and electricity and refrigeration are. Seriously. So damned much is dependent on the internet now. Everything is tied to being online. Work, news, audio, video, radio. It's all tied to a functional internet connection. Which if you can't tell, I'm having major issues with today. It's infuriating as it could be external, the modem or any other range of issues. It's allo aggravating to have to 'own' fixing it in a house full of people who complain to you about it. Yeah I'm in a shitty mood. I'm posting this linked to my iPhone because something's fucked up and I don't want to take it on at 11pm. No, restarting the modem didn't help but thanks for that advice. Also, Jen was exposed to somebody Saturday that notified her yesterday night that they tested positive for Covid. We setup an appointment last night and she got tested today, so now we're in aggressive lock down as we wait. We will hear by Saturday at the latest if she tested positive. Many plans are falling apart for the next few days. Sad that it's my mom's 82nd Birthday and we could not be together but she's OK with that and I'm just grateful that she was notified when she was and that we didn't go over to my mom's then find out while there or later that Jen's at risk. Watched "Letter to You" documentary and liked it very much. It's well alighted with the introspective way I myself view aging, and what I would consider the 3rd Act, if I'm being optimistic. Had a nice breakfast with Lauren while Tommy worked out. And he used some Doordash points to spring for Opa dinner delivery. Worked out great. He's restless but we're all in aggressive quarantine.
