the last week of december of '08 marked 20 years of my living here in cincinnati. i've had my ups and downs with this town, but overall i like it here and i have a decent life. strangely though, i recently find myself being very very homesick for new york. i'm trying to figure out the reasons why, but they don't seem to be coming to me.

after eight full days of no power, the lights finally came back on at 6 pm on sunday.  i would like to thank the duke energy supervisor who went against his home office because they wanted to pull the crew, and told the contractors to stay and finish the job.

since ike took a slight tour through this area over the weekend, i have been without power at home since about 2 sunday afternoon. after the storm over 90% of duke energy's customers ( about 1 million) were without power. power was still out at my house when i left this morning. duke does not expect to get all customers back online before the weekend. i have no idea when it's coming back on at my place, i'm hoping by the time i get home. it's still hard to find gas, a lot of gas stations that were able to open have run out. ice is in short supply, but a lot of the food stores are open and are restocking. in comparison, this is just a minor inconvienience compared to galveston and houston. my thoughts go out to people down there.

got my new copy of watchmen today to replace the one that probably got lost when i moved. also replacements for dark knight returns and batman year one are on order. it's been a long time since i read watchmen. i'm excited about the movie, but i'm also a bit apprehensive that reading it again right now will make my expectations too high.
i'm also currently reading anthony bourdain's "the nasty bits". excellent so far as expected.

iphone update. order status moved from "back order" to "in progress", so there's hope of getting one in this lifetime. also, this from an email i got from a local pal this morning:

Thought for the day

Handle every stressful situation just like a dog.






If you can't eat it or hump it...

Piss on it and walk away.

this is an interesting (to me anyway) video of a guy playing myst for the first time. he apparently solved it in 9.5 hours with no help. it took me a *lot* longer than that. there are some ending spoilers,fyi:

i am currently downloading all the available episodes of the first doctor, william hartnell from 1963. i watched the very first episode, "an unearthly child", in it's entirety for the first time ever yesterday. i wonder what he would think of the current series. as i understand it, he loved playing the doctor and was very protective of the series, even after he retired.
