Bob Patterson “borrowing” neighbor’s wi-fi
I spent the past few days flying back to Corn-dog Land and driving back to the West (again). This time, however, it was with Mrs. Patterson and four cats.
Mrs. Patterson flew back to deal with the movers while I now share a mostly empty townhouse with four cats. Empty rooms and cats. Why do they stare at me with their judging eyes? But I digress…
The good news:
- Movers loaded our house
- I can pick up the neighbor’s wi-fi from the upstairs bedroom
The bad news:
- The only furniture I have is a cot
- I’m living out of bags and suitcases
- No fridge
- No microwave
- No television
- No washer or dryer
Training:
After a week hiatus I’m back at the gym for my fast and furious weight sessions. Since it’s uncomfortable sitting on the edge of a cot with this net book I’m not going to post daily. In fact, blog posts will continue to be sporadic.
Upcoming:
Dojo Rat has me on a top secret mission to infiltrate area republican strongholds. More on that as my mission unfolds or until I’m arrested.

Dude;
A few suggestions:
1. ice chest (for Beer, and I guess food)
2. camp stove (no, not for cooking meth)
3. Beware of Dick Cheney; they say he now has a human heart that he stole from some poor bastard.
DR: Rest assured I always have my eye out for Dick.
I would totally buy a mini-fridge, a small microwave, and a hotplate. Try your local thrift store for the microwave and a few pots and pans (ramen!), and you’d think the hotplate would be <$30 at K-Mart. Once your furnishings arrive, you can always stick those now-surplus items in the den/garage/etc. Or just donate them to a charity. (Or, sell them to incoming students?)
Just a thought. But after a few weeks, the cost of eating take-out versus buying "real" food and nuking/boiling/frying it yourself would offset the cost of the mini-fridge, etc.
