Vacuum Packed!

Brick pants!

Like a brick of green fluff! And when I opened it and expanded it, I found a lovely pair of green fluff trousers! My Grinch ensemble is basically ready. I will check on everything tomorrow, so I don’t have to look for things on Thursday. It is going to be a warm day, which is a mixed blessing. But I only have to wear it for seven hours or so. I will survive.

Today was a two dash day. Despite doing decently for the first dash, it just seemed difficult and a bit painful. The second dash was just painful. Two good rides out of 11. Lots of crappy long rides. With long waits at stores. Just not a good dash at all. Let’s hope that tomorrow’s dashes are both good, shall we? Hope springs eternal.

We had some rain today. I didn’t check for leaks. I should have. But I just didn’t want to get up at around 2:45pm and look. So, next rain storm.

I paid bills. Pretty painless since I don’t have to write checks and stuff envelopes and put on stamps etc.

My friend LF gifted me some of a delicious spaghetti squash dish that she made. I am so lucky!

Tomorrow, I need to call the insurance people. And I also want to go by Chris Buttons’ office and drop off a copy of the letter for him. Maybe they will let me copy it there. Or something. I like doing Chris tomorrow because it is going to be a warm day and I can walk to his office. I doubt he will be there or that he will be receiving. I don’t need to talk with him, I just want to drop off the letter about the sidewalk. I am of course hoping that he will just take care of it and leave me out of it entirely. That would be nifty. But we shall of course see.

Tonight, more MacGyver. Working through the second season. 22 episodes a season! Old school! The show is pre-covid! Ancient history.

Oh, something out of the ordinary happened. I made it weird I think. I was in MacDonald’s picking up and order and someone tapped me on the shoulder. A woman was there and asked if I liked McCafe. I told her that I was dashing. She said she wanted to buy me a cup of coffee. I told her that I didn’t actually drink coffee, but thank you very much for the thought. I asked her name and she gave it. I told her mine as she walked away. In the car, I thought about giving her my phone number, but when I am dashing, I don’t generally like to dilly dally. Too little too late. I might never see her again. Though I think she works at a restaurant downtown. Not one that I pickup dashing orders from. Anyway. I am not suave.

And that’s all the news for tonight. I have done some duolingo (working on music today). And had leftover Mexican food food dinner. Yum!

This truck is large, but not that large!!

Seen at Wegman’s the other day. People are not very bright if they try to sit in this vehicle. Then again…

The more I think about it, much as I admire Optimus and would like one, one day, I would really like to have a Robovan. Maybe I will keep my current Tesla (which I would love more if it were a long distance one) until Robovan is available. If a list comes out, I will add my name to it no matter the cost. The possibilities with that vehicle are pretty vast!

Last night, I was hallucinating a bit. I thought I heard my guests in their room. But no, they weren’t there. I also thought I heard a cat mewing. Craziness. I don’t have a cat. There hasn’t been a cat in this family since Tiger died back in the 1980s. There couldn’t be a cat meowing anywhere. But wait! I recalled that I had left the front door open. And the door to the side porch. Having earlier remembered about the side porch door being opened, I closed it at some point. And then i heard the caterwauling.

Sure enough, some cat had decided to investigate the side porch and I had trapped it in there. Hopefully it wasn’t there long enough to pee or poop on anything. When I opened the door from the house to the porch, the cat zipped inside. Bad kitty. Get out, I said. It headed for the kitchen, but I shooed it out and closed that door. I had already opened the door to the outside from the porch and was ushering th kitty that way. It wasn’t happy about that. Hissing and spitting ensued. But the silly thing didn’t want to go out that door, it wanted to go out the same door it had come in. So when I opened that door, bye bye kitty! Phew! I did not want to adopt a cat!!

It has been a quiet day. After using the copy function of my printer last night to do a little task for S, I took those documents to her in the morning. And that was about it for me outside, despite the weather being sunny and in the 70s! Inside, I didn’t do much. I ate some lunch, watched a bunch of YouTube videos (not the one I had told myself to watch) and generally was lumpy.

Eventually I did a few things around the house: stripped the guest bed, stripped and made my bed (with flannel sheets – I am sure after this brief warm spell, cold weather will return with a vengeance), started another load of laundry, put together the doors I had taken apart, watched the video on transcriptions (If I can do that instead of dashing, I would be thrilled) and even started the paperwork to do that gig. And Duolingo.

I am taking a break from Vikings. I have watched a couple of movies – nothing too exciting – and started a couple of series that seem ok. I think I will watch the MacGyver reboot for awhile and see how that goes. And maybe some little Anna Kendrick movie that she is promoting on Instagram.

Speaking of which, I am not missing X at all. The next step will be to delete the app. I am so angered by the change in blocking behavior I could spit.

Tonight, more Chinese food and more crab rangoons. I want to use up the stuffing I had left over from Friday. Not exciting but life is that way sometimes. I have a lot of containers of leftovers in the fridge and want to pare that number down! Wish me luck!
