YIKES I almost forgot to pay for my server hosting. I wish they would have auto pay like every single other provider out there, but for some reason they don't, so I have to do it manually.

I usually have a reminder on my phone but it just occurred to me that it has not triggered in a long time. I checked and bill is due on the 17th. Wow talk about close. That would have sucked. All my sites would have went down. I have a good deal on this server too so would be hard to replace it.

That's still cutting it very close. Had I not remembered today I would have lost all my web facing stuff like my websites etc. I usually try to be at least a month ahead. On domains I try to be at least a year ahead.
 
Heating up some Marie Callandar(sp?) chicken noodle soup on the wood stove. It expired in Aug 2006 :^D

Can's dented and a little rusty, but it looked ok inside, and has the heavy duty liner. I didn't know what I wanted to eat, and I've seen that can sitting around forever, so it's time to how well it kept. If it tastes too bad, I'll find something else.

Can I have your stuff?
 
Testing it for heat, it isn't bad. There's a hint of can flavor, but you get that with fresh canned goods sometimes. Should be hot enough in 5 minutes or so.
 
Sitting by the fire, and the cat's like furniture. When I get up, I have to put the cat in the chair, and when I sit back down, I have to pick the cat up and put her back in my lap. Ridiculous...

Haha my cat is like that too, but I find it's more like a small appliance. A heating appliance that has a vibrate feature. I totally skipped out on church today, I was just so tired and super comfy in bed. The cat likes to snuggle more now that it's winter.
 
So I experimented with gaming from the couch last night. Not sure if I like it. The physical setup I figured out is ok, just a piece of plywood on my lap for the keyboard and mouse. The issue is because the TV is far it's not as immersive as a monitor that's close up, and text is harder to read. I hope that's not just my vision getting bad again though... but I was 20/20 last I got checked a few years ago. I imagine I'm due for another checkup soon, I usually get a card in the mail.

I'll try it out again today though, as it's a combination of things to get used to, different keyboard, different mouse, different posture etc. I can always just sit closer to the TV but then I have to rearrange furniture. Of course, this may also just be an excuse to get a bigger TV like a 75" or something. 😛

Over all I still prefer gaming at a desk I think though, it's just that all KVMs suck and are flaky etc, and I need one if I want to game at my desk since my main machine is linux. And no a VM won't work, most games don't run in a VM, at all, like it won't even load. I've tried.

Lol won't be surprised I see something on the local FB page.

Technically illegal to fly at night though. But then again drones are practically banned here in Canada if you read all the rules. I figure our local PD has better things to worry about, at least I hope. Crime (as in, real crime that actually affects people) here is getting super bad.
