Anything to declare?

posted in health, technology |

Robbed! That snow storm should have come earlier, and with more force. Instead; regular duties for all involved. Come on! I don’t intend to stay in school mode for much longer. Unexpected holidays are part of the negotiated package. To be fair, my homework was done, and the pain lasted only a few moments.

Mind you, on the bus coming home, I used the smart phone to listen to a lecture from the MOOC. Filled the time nicely.

This was a sore eye day. Can’t quite put my finger on the problem (that would only increase the level of discomfort), but I don’t intend to stay up any later than required. Last night, about two hours were traded off to the insomnia gremlin. The bit about not feeding them after midnight, or getting them wet – might be something in that.

There have been some unexpected outages in the home wifi coverage. Not for me, but I get called, 24/7 when anyone else has a wrinkle. Heard that the cable company techs were here today to check the outside coax. That, too, counts as unexpected. Not like they’ve done much infrastructure upgrading over the last quarter of a century…

Learned (from the news) that Chris Hadfield had to pass through a customs control upon return to Earth. Huh? The “Do you have anything to declare?” question must have had them rolling in the aisles in Kazakhstan.

What if they had refused “entry”? Would he have been put on a return flight to a place with no zip code? Inquiring minds want to know.
