CountryMouse's Refuge

I know, I know. But I don't know if we're might get severe storms later today or not. Hoping not.

Something weird happened the other day. I thought, "Wow, I guess it's not going to be 'scary weather' after all because we didn't get any watches or warnings--the weather radio alarm didn't go off." Then before I was going to go to bed, I checked the weather online; and it said we had a tornado watch until 4am. WTF?!?

I went in the bedroom and checked the weather radio. It was unplugged and the battery back-up hadn't worked. All I can think is that the weight of the a/c converter plug was just too much for it and it fell out of the wall socket...or the faeries are playing around and don't realize we really need that to be plugged in. No, there would be no reason for Bunnicula to unplug it; and it's not in a place where the cord could be accidentally pulled. I'll just have to check on the plug everyday, I guess. ::sigh::

I can post an entry from the form online; but I can't post an entry from my little LJ client. In fact, I tried logging out of it and logging back in, and now I can't even log in with it. Hmm.

It must've been a short-lived hiccup. All's working well now. :-)

I was looking for a post I'd made somewhere back in my archives, but I haven't found it yet--I'm only halfway through.

In the meantime, while going through old posts, I came to the realization that I seem to've lived a more interesting life in the earlier part of this decade than I am doing at present. Some of that has to do with (and this will sound pathetic, but oh well) the fact that Cat'r is not here a lot of the time. He's been working out of town for over two years now, which sucks royally. When he's here, things come alive. :-)

I don't know, somehow I don't feel as witty as I used to be. Or something like that. This Blog 365 thing is making me very self-conscious about content. And I just never thought of that most of the time when I was writing my LiveJournal back in the earlier years. I was just me. I wasn't trying to *be* someone or something for anyone. I wasn't trying to impress anyone. And somehow it was enough and it was all right.

If being in this Blog 365 challenge means I have to come up with "serious" content every day, it's gonna be a tough row to hoe. That's not how I blog. ::sigh::

Well, those of you who might be watching: I guess that's your serious content for the day from me. ::glower::
