“Waterloo” by ABBA
Tuesday
Today was not what I would call an eventful day. A Verizon tech stopped by, though mostly to say he couldn’t do anything to fix the line, would have to send a team out, and that Verizon was unlikely to offer any kind of permanent fix, basically because they want everybody off the old copper land lines, regardless of what their customers want. Which, I have to say, has sort of been my experience with them thus far.
All that, however, only took a few short minutes out of my day. Even a short trip to the library over lunch — to pick up a couple of competing textbooks I’d been hoping to have for Monday’s author meeting — didn’t do much to break up the day.
Still, it wasn’t too terrible, as far as Tuesdays go.

This versiona is also pretty terrific, though.
