Calling Accuweather’s bluff….

According to Accuweather, Friday is going to hit 74. They were right with the windstorm, so I’m going to call their bluff, and I’ve set up the AC in my room already. Along with this, I decided to clear the junk off of my easy chair, and around said chair. I’ve:

• found the Seattle Kaken hat that my sister got me for Christmas.
• found my Festivus stocking cap that’s been missing for 5 years.
• Discovered 3 sets of headphones, most of which were impulse bought at  Worst Buy, and they’re going in the trash.
• found whole shitload of usb cables. Into the Drawer with them.
• discovered some cheap Home Depot swag from when I worked there. The fact that I dug them from behind the chair shows how much I used them. Trashed.
• found most of my missing socks. Into the laundry basket.
• Discovered a package of beef jerky from a shopping trip last fall. It was unopened, so I have no doubt as to it’s fitness for consumption. But still, into the trash…

And I just went through the Drawer, too. Cleared out:

• The original 56k modem that my first Gateway came with.
• The RAM from the computer that replaced the Gateway.
• A very old tablet.
• Various and Sundry cases to phones that are no longer used.
• Miscellaneous video cables. I’ve now realized that most monitors will supply the cables that you need…
• A manual to a joystick that I wish I still had…
• The manual to Combat Flight Simulator. The original one. I still have the game.
• At least one cable remote. In 2015, my brother and I went to the X1 system, and this remote was from the previous box. And Xfinity at the time said that they were now free. I now have three X1 compatible remotes in my room (they give you a new one every time you replace your box, and apparently they aren’t to keen on them being returned.

And lastly, I pitched the wireless charger I got a few weeks ago. I got it because it was advertised as charging both my phone and my buds wirelessly at the same time. But I could never get it to work. It would charge for a few minutes, then flash ‘error’. I’m not complaining to Newegg about it, since they went above and beyond with their customer service when UPS decided to fuck up the delivery. The second that they shipped me is still in the shipping box, and will probably be given away at Christmas. As for me, I found another charger at Spamazon, and it works even better.

Now to go throw out the two bags of garbage….
