no radio today

We all have our routines.

My morning routine is to make coffee, feed the cat (who believes he is starving to death at THAT EXACT MOMENT, despite the fact that his bowl is still half-full from the day before) and then ... if Spike has already left for work ... I turn on the computer to listen to the station I like, on-line.

Why don't I use a radio? Because my radio is 593 years old, and sounds like a tin can.

What's the station I like these days? Well, I can't show you because they hyped up a new line-up, new theme, new everything, starting today - and it doesn't work. Weblink is "broken".

*sigh*

I was feeling tentative about it anyway, because the morning guy I like is all about the outrage and the rants, and even when I don't agree with him, it makes me laugh. How can anyone be so opinionated that early in the morning?

The new morning guy used to be the afternoon guy, and in the afternoons he's all reasonable and intelligent and witty - which I'm not sure I can handle in the morning. I have to be smart all day long. I need an intelligence-optional show in the morning.

So here I am, on my day off, knowing I should be getting some things done. But my routine is broken.

I may still be in pj's at dinnertime.
