"JURY DUTY?!?! REALLY?!?!"

One of the things I did before all the layoff stuff went down was get rid of my cable service. I don't watch enough TV to really keeps it, and I found a place where my antenna gets all the channels I need (I just use local TV for local news).

The nice thing is, I don't use the TV as a my TV. The signal goes into my TV card on my PC. Which actually allows you to stream it anywhere in the house. It works BETTER than my cable service!

Onyl downside is I don't get CBC anymore. But I only watched the news on CBC, and they put that on YouTube.

@tekk - I was wondering if you had Social Media out there! Glad to see you - hope you made the Tuesday Morning Massacre unscathed!

I'm watching Ice Road Truckers: Deadliest Roads and having a dad who does truck driving for a living and driving forest roads myself, it's funny how the show really amps up the fear and anxiety when I'm looking at it like "They've got plenty of room!"

Not that what they're doing isn't dangerous - it absolutely is. But wow, they take the smallest danger and ratchet it up to 11.

Laid Off, Day Zero: My former work desk quickly becomes a pizza buffet.

Years before the Cybertonian Wars, Proud Daddy Ironhide takes his son Ratchet for a day in the park.

Some serious fog Tuesday night, though.

Wednesday night we had another windstorm. Again, we just happened to be in a pocket of no winds, somehow.

Laid Off, Day One: already sleeping from 5AM to 1PM. ❤

So, now what?

Don't care. Won't care. Taking the rest of the week off. The worry will be there Monday.

Deep thoughts about the future while I still have a present.

#SecondLife

It's going to be okay. Somehow....

@TonyaMarie @secant2 - Officiall I'm a San Antonian. I got to Austin as quick as I could. :D

@secant2 @TonyaMarie - I'm an Austinite exiled to Seattle, I feel your pain. ❤️

@secant2 @TonyaMarie - The only copycat I ever did was a Whataburger, which came REAL close (I just can't find "wide" buns like Whataburger uses!).

@TonyaMarie @secant2 - One of my former roomies made good spicy food, but we'd joke that she was weaponizing her meals while cooking. :)

@secant2 @TonyaMarie - ::SAVED::

Seeing as I was just laid off from my job, I have the time to make these. :)

@secant2 @TonyaMarie - The places that call them Koblanisky are usually the real deep Czech areas. I know in the Hill Country they're not called that or even kolaches. I always knew them as "pigs in a blanket."
