loree's car wouldn't start again. Didn't run it long enough last night, I guess.
I had insomnia, followed by an unpleasant giant-ant-spiders AND giant-scorpions nightmare.
Then the T1 line went down around 4-something. And is still down. According to emails Megapath is sending, to an email address /HOSTED ON THE T1 LINE/ (so glad I set up an off-site secondary MX), there is a problem with equipment at the West Seattle Centurylink CO. I am the only customer affected. Which apparently means I am their only (remaining?) West Seattle T1 customer. 11 months left on the contract, give or take.

On the plus side, I made a lot of progress with my work project, which is implementing a proof of concept in Salt, comparable to one my boss did in Ansible, so we can decide which of the two we like better.
Then we fixed the car again, L went to Fry's to get a standalone jumper unit, while I went to drop off sharps, and we met up at AFK Renton for dinner. Then home. Ice-cream-for-dinner got pushed to tomorrow.

Now I'm tired and cranky and full of first world problems.
