A place to keep my entries for various contests and challenges |
A free-write entry for "Invalid Item" It's day four of the challenge and here I am, writing for day three! On day two, I ended up writing for day one as well as for day two. It's looking like, if this dang-blasted device continues to work, I'll be doing the same today. I know the challenge is to write a blog entry a day, so I hope my playing ketchup catch-up is not out of bounds and going to get me all jammed up with Andre. In a way, this entry is written for him to explain my inconsistency; I mean, after all, I'm not purposefully trying to be naughty. It's like this: My laptop has had some kind of weird Voo-Doo hex laid upon it. It frequently and consistently disconnects from the wifi. Not only does it turn the Wi-Fi card off, but it also removes the ability for me to turn it back on. I have to restart, go to troubleshooting, and have even had to reinstall Windows to get it back. I did some tweaking and updating based on some online information that is supposed to correct this, and so far I've been hassle/trouble-free for over an hour. Let's hope. There was also an unexpected road trip tossed into the mess, which burned up over six hours of drive-time, and a few more visiting my son since I was in his area. Finally, I have a sinus infection (likely from the same Voo-Doo curse placed on my pc) that has been keeping me from sleeping much. But, I have that medicated now and hope that one of these first nights I'll sleep instead of cough when I lie down. Four days into November and my entries have been a bit inconsistent, but at least, I'm being consistent with my inconsistency...
