People of the Internets, I greet you!
Tuesday, November 4th, 2025 09:13 amTuesday, chilly, damp, and dim. Trash and recycling at the curb.
Richard the Fidium Guy is on Upper Main Street and called to let me know he'll arrive in the next few minutes. "Is this the Miller residence?"
Sigh.
Hopefully, my next communication with you will not be through the good offices of my phone.

So, the problem was bandwidth piracy. Someone had gotten into the central box, took "my" cable, and plugged it into "their" feed. Richard has put it back, and all lights are green.
I hope he also rigged it so the next time the fiber thief tries to steal my bandwidth, they get a healthy shock for their trouble.
What a world we live in.
Firefly stayed right here in my office, and kept a Very Close Eye on Richard, from a distance, while he was here. Tali retired to the top of the bookshelf in Steve's office, and I think Rook is in the closet in Steve's office.
I -- am sorting the thread and getting my needles ready for my next embroidering project. Yes, yes -- I know. Stained glass. Embroidery. Writing. Is there nothing this woman can't do?

Today is election day in Maine. I voted via absentee ballot, as is my right and my privilege. Yes, it's "only" a local election, but -- please make time to vote today. Thank you.
So! How's Tuesday shaping up in your piece of the world?
