markov: Waiting for telco technician ... could be up to 5 hours before I start the hourlong trip to the #hotel. Whoever heard of INET connection that suddenly becomes #IPv6 only?

markov: S, 11, 17, 1, 5, 6A, 20, 7: fully functional; 1A, 2A, 4A: partially functional. No report from other locations. We kind of got roughed up today. Expected calm, easy Saturday. Starting the drive to #hotel.

markov: Must not have been. #NOAA / #NWS site records nothing. There were sirens and a recorded announcement outside, but they were hard to hear over the #hotel playing Christmas songs in the hallways. By the time I went outside to hear what they were saying, they stopped.

markov: Most towns here bear enough resemblance to one another that as I drive around the state, everywhere has a mildly familiar feel. Today, I turned a corner near my #hotel and instantly recognized that I'm just 2-3 miles from one of our smaller offices. It was such a great thing to know exactly where I am.

lnxw48a1: Good morning. Having my daily #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ) and fighting the urge to try to recover the sleep I missed overnight due to repeated fire alarms at the #hotel. My current !coffee is half-caff with chicory added, so it may not help much.

lnxw48: Ah, #YoCo ( #Yogurt and !coffee ) is the right way to begin your workday. I'm glad I make my own !coffee instead of drinking the #hotel stuff.

markov: I don't remember, but #Identi.ca was changing pretty rapidly up until sometime around the state, everywhere has a mildly familiar feel. Today, I turned a corner near my #hotel and instantly recognized that I'm just hoping the team never includes Anthony Weiner.

lnxw48: I ate too much. Normally, these places' food isn't so great, so I nibble enough to look like I enjoyed it, then grab a snack after I get back to the #hotel. However, if you're going to charge that much for a Thanksgiving banquet, you should *make* your pies, not buy premade retail store pies. Blech!

markov: drinking #hotel #coffee to get me started before I start the hourlong trip to the #TSA at #hairport #crotch-scan stations. And an unopened single-serve container of #yogurt. Less dangerous to open it an scoop a few hours, if I was, I'd be more likely to support them.

lnxw48: Since the TV at the #hotel seems to only get a dozen #ESPN channels (and they all seem to be constantly playing old college football games, where football is the American sport, not another name for Soccer), I got a #Roku "Express" stick. I don't have any paid subscriptions, but I'm watching Weather Underground now.

lnxw48: Today's route was nice. Morning locations were ~60 miles away from the #hotel, but the afternoon locations were closer, ending wih one about 20 miles away. Makes for a quicker, easier return "home" after work.

lnxw48: Got a tip from Mark about a place that I might be able to stay for more than 2-3 nights at a time. I'm really tired of changing from one #hotel to the next one. And don't even get me started on #hotel_inet.

lnxw48: Changed from last night's #hotel because they gave me a smoking room. A previous occupant must have constantly had a cigarette burning. I think even smokers would grumble.

lnxw48: Interesting. #hotel seems to have changed ISPs and #VPN not connecting. Also, who would name their company "Choopa" without asking what "chupa" means? Is it their way of admitting they suck?

lnxw48: #YoCo: today's #yogurt is Trader Joe's lowfat peach (stirred) and TJ's nonfat strawberry. The peach lists sugar as an ingredient, but has that 'off' taste like it has artificial sweetener. The #coffee is Folgers + Cafe Bustelo (tastes okay, not fantastic, beats the #hotel's 'premium' stuff).

lnxw48: I have started looking for "Non-GMO" on the label of the #yogurt I buy. One well-known national brand admits in small print that they do use gene-spliced ingredients, so I've stopped buying that brand. For today's #YoCo, another national brand and a store brand with stir your own fruit. The #coffee is barely better than the #hotel stuff, but that happens when you're traveling.

lnxw48: Been a long time since I had a #hotel room with a door connecting an adjoining room. Checked to make sure door is locked (it is). Learning to deal with the occupant's constant TV / media noise will be a bit ofa challenge.

lnxw48: Yes, I know, I can use #hotel_wifi, but it depends on the #hotel. At some, #hotel_inet is an extra charge (and then they limit speed and amount of data, so very much not worth paying for). In others, they may have zero-price access, but with a single access point in the center, with intermittent service to more distant rooms.
