Dear Hulu: You suck and your customer support sucks. See, this is why I torrent my television... because it fucking works. I go to watch television legitimately and the website shits all over me because apparently my operating system and browser and version of Adobe Shockwave Flash (all of which are listed as "supported") are not good enough for Hulu even though YouTube works just fine. Fuck you, Hulu. Arrr.
In other news, while very few of the Philly people noticed or mentioned that I looked skinnier (I am hoping the reason for lack o' commentary was that they were just being polite or oblivious instead of the possibility that I might not actually look any skinnier), Trys got back from three weeks away in Europe and noticed the skinnier immediately and appreciatively. Go Trys! I had on a pair of eights. Eights. Hell. I haven't worn a pants size in the single digits in absolutely ages. Even with size inflation, this is a notable progress milestone. Huzzah.
No horse today, but I did engage in a bit of construction. The bed frame at my house is wood and it is apparently rather brittle and unsuited to, er, bouncy activities. It broke. Twice. I have reinforced it so that this will not be an ongoing issue. Also, am shopping for new bed frame (and box spring and mattress, while I am at it) in the weeks to come. I might bestir myself to "shop" at Love, INC (local charity what provides furniture to most of my tenants) for the frame. I don't think they means-test and even if they do, when I show up in my 17 year old pickup dressed the way I usually dress, I do not think they will ask me very many questions. How proud? Not too proud. Free is free. Mattress and box spring will be new, however.
