Adventures with Dr. Lady Cutie Troublemaker

Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

5 Years Later “As It Happened” Activity

I actually woke up thinking I’d watch the "As It Happened" feed on CNN.com, since I overslept that morning. I called in sick to my job in Martinsville (I was doing some contract testing), and I don’t know what time it was when Hamilton (my now ex but then husband) woke me up and couldn’t believe I wasn’t in front of the television. The feed isn’t working for me. Is it working for you? By my watch, it’s 8:39am. Still nothing. Maybe it was a bad idea after all.

OK, CNN Pipeline officially sucks. I have now spent 45 minutes of my morning trying various ways of watching this video. I even opened Internet Explorer! I even tried joining Pipeline for $.99 for the day. None of this is working. I woke up intending to pay homage, to be moved, to experience something that I hadn’t experienced when it happened. Now I’m just irritated with the CNN web sit. Drat!
