New ISP
Yes, I'm back with Verizon.
Not DSL, this time it's FiOS,
I don't always get 10 mbps, but it's almost always over 6 mbps, which is what I was getting with Roadrunner.

SNAKE!!!
Animal Control just left with a 3 ft Ball Python that was in my back yard.
Must have escaped from a neighbor.

EARTHQUAKE!
Yes, I felt it.
Everybody felt it.
The earthquake was just enough to remind me I need to refresh my 'grab
and go' bag.

We still have to re-pipe the hot water, but that won't be anywhere near as complex a job as the cold. Then, of course, there's the drywall to replace...
