Tuesday night I had problems sleeping, worrying over my automobile. Things got so bad that I had to take Wednesday off. Then come to find out it was all a big mistake. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my vehicle. The service advisor and the mechanic had a difference of opinion and that caused the issue. Glad that worry is off the list but I wished that I could have wiped it off sooner. I thought it was odd to get the news via a paper report, normally they are up front and tell you over the phone or in person when something is awry or will need future attention.
I did sleep most of Wednesday away, I was up in the afternoon but eventually I fell back asleep for a short period. I had to take some Benadryl last night to ensure that I would be tip top for today.
I am still having sound issues despite removing the fancy keyboard and it’s added software. Looks like that might have been the straw that caused this to come to light. I can’t help but think that it might be related to using my desktop to connect to work but it shouldn’t. This morning I placed an order for a new soundcard. I went the Amazon route and it’s like $8 for a USB plug in dongle. I figure if it doesn’t work, I can always buy a new card but I have high hopes. The fancy keyboard is paid for. I am still on the fence a little bit about potentially sending it back. Then I go the other extreme, telling myself you wanted it and you have paid for it so you might as well keep it. I mean it does work and feels good to type on. Ah, computers they are fine but only when they work.
Nothing good on TV tonight or tomorrow. I will have to rely on my Roku to help find some content to pass the time.
I talked with the new guy at work, he’s doing okay. He hinted that we will probably get news on Monday that they are going to slowly open back up and probably not have everyone go back to the office at once. There will be some what of a remote presence. We could have a rotation where someone from the team goes in and the rest of us work remote. Our boss knows what is going to happen but he isn’t leaking that information, but he’s the one that asked everyone to be thinking about that and to be flexible. I missed that since I was out yesterday. Since everyone is doing such a bang-up job working from home, I don’t see any reason to change things but that is just my opinion. Which won’t go over terribly well once we need to make an appearance. Boss man is all about politics. As long as we have an internet connection, we can all work from home and there is no reason whatsoever to go into a physical building.
My dentist cancelled my appointment again. We can get together once the stay at home order is lifted. They asked me to call back and if I fail, they will have me on a call list. Makes sense to me. I kind of want to skip my doctor’s appointment but am still up in the air about what I want to do there.
Marv & Gator are both playing the crying game more often than not. They are trying to make me feel guilty for working, even though I am sure they think I am on some game playing adventure here in the basement. I wish that was the case but unfortunately, it’s not. Were all keeping each other company. The other day I came upstairs and was headed for the kitchen when Marv came charging out from underneath the couch. He gave me quite the surprise that I wasn’t expecting. Then he yammered on as if he was apologizing.
The pizza is gone and I have no desire for pizza for a while. That was a monster but it was very good. Not my favorite place to get pizza from but it does well in a pinch. I just never knew the extra toppings were at no charge or I would have layered them on thick like I did a long time ago. Speaking of which I am not sure what is for dinner. With spending yesterday in bed it’s hard to fathom today is Thursday already.
I hope you are well and doing good. Take care and we will talk again soon.
