We never did go TV-hunting on Wednesday. It just didn't--and still doesn't--seem that urgent a matter to us. Maybe it will a few weeks hence, when I've seen the same embarrassing ads for shady lawyers on Sling for the millionth time, but for now, there are enough books and other services to keep me busy.
We will need to got on the A/C problem, however. It's hot and only getting hotter, and my skin is already protesting. I neither can nor want to imagine what it will be like in July, with heat indexes in the hundreds with 100% humidity for weeks on end. I can get the unit easily and quickly, but COVID-19 has made in-home installation a bear, as no one, understandably, wants to spend a protracted amount of time in a stranger's home. I trust my neighbors, but with the exception of the old diabetic two doors down, they're all in the camp of Wearing a Mask Infringes on Muh Freedom, so that's a no-go. Of course none of this would be an issue now if my landlord/mother had gotten off her overlarded ass and replaced it a YEAR ago when I first alerted her to the problem, but here we are.
One thing I have acquired is a Colgate sonic toothbrush, one of the five-dollar cheapies. My dentist has been recommending an electric brush for a while, so I decided to try a disposable one to see if I could handle one. The answer seems to be a yes, so if he notices improvement when I go in for my filling in a few weeks, I might have to unbox the Sonicare my mother got me for Christmas a few years back. Anything to avoid more painful, expensive work.
