Update-type thing

Haven't left the house since Wednesday, just been too tired, achy, and unwilling to expose myself to elements that might worsen this sore throat & earache I've got. Maybe that lovely seven-mile walk took a bit out of me after all. Did have plans for today, but they all required either (A) going for long walks in cold rain or (B) talking on the phone with a sore throat, so I decided to change plans and spend most of the day reading or napping.

One major event today: For the first time in the year that I've had AOL, I had to call tech support. After establishing that nothing was wrong with my computer and the AOL software was just being stupid, we got things straightened out and (with a great sense of relief) I got online again. Good thing, too, as stapling my hand to my forehead didn't much appeal to me. The AOL tech support guy lived up to the reputation of being friendly and helpful, though of course during the years with my old ISP I never had to call tech support for anything at all.

I discovered that Yahoo! Music Australia finally has expanded features like other regional Launchcasts, so I'm listening to Made in Australia, which is the only remotely entertaining thing I have done today. Maybe I should have stapled my hand to forehead after all.
