Well, a few miles southeast of where I live, PG&E is having problems with a gas leak. The road is effectively closed for the next six hours. So, if anyone wants to huff natural gas, go there.

Xbox 360 lust is creeping into my veins. Bad. And I just got my Christmas bonus. On the other hand, prices are supposed to drop after the holidays. Hmmm...On the other other hand, Costco has some nice bundles that effectively save money on lots of accessories. I should wait. I should. Yes, I should. Maybe. Yes. No. No! Yes! Way! No Way!

Self: You are not allowed to enter Costco until after Christmas!
Inner Child: But I'm sure I need to get a half-ton of essentials, like toilet paper and detergent. and an Xbox 360.
Self: It looks like we have plenty here.
Inner Child: I need batteries!
Self: in addition to these rechargeable ones here?
Inner Child: rats!

I sent an email to Comcast last night to consider carrying LinkTV. It's a really neat television station. I was watching their World Music show last night and there was a lot of fun music from Colombia, Tunisia, France, and other countries I forgot to note because a) I missed the video title info and b)I couldn't understand a word they were singing. One looked like it was from a Muslim country, with women dressed in clothes that covered their heads and bodies fairly well, and since it had subtitles, I knew that the chorus is "this love is not a means, and nor is it a game." There was also reference to the Prophet. What was interesting is that most of the people had more olive complected skin, but the lead singer was beyond white.

Of course, I already received a canned response from Comcast. So, if anyone else who has cable wants Comcast to receive an interesting television station that brings world events and culture to your door, Check out LinkTV.org and send Comcast a letter asking them for it!


Tomorrow [livejournal.com profile] rubbrduckage are supposed to take a little trip to Apple Hill. [livejournal.com profile] taogrl will not be able to have the day off, sadly. Fun should be had, though. Later that night, [livejournal.com profile] rubbrduckage's husband's band will be performing in Davis. I'll be attending that, and perhaps R will be able to make it as well.
