We had something resembling snow today. Sort of a snow and hail hybrid. When it first started coming down, I wasn’t sure what was happening. The precipitation acted like hail, little teeny balls of snow. At times, it was snowing hard enough that driving was a bit hazardous. But over all, it was just weird and not at very inconvenient.

Look, mom, snow?

For some reason, WordPress is acting weird today. Sigh. On my phone it wouldn’t load this picture so I could edit it. And when I edited it on my laptop, it got small, not only from the cropping, but from the pixel depth. And it automatically showed up as the featured image somehow. You know what? I really couldn’t care too much less.

So, a two dash day. Both were decent. Though the second one could have been great, if four of my last five dashes hadn’t been absolute crap. Three no tippers. And one, a regular customer, who consistently tips too little. If they had all tipped decently, I would have had a great shift. As it was, it was good. I stopped a little early which made me happy. I didn’t want to get any more bad dashes.

One dasher today completely blew my mind. No tip to get an order from a restaurant 8 miles away and bring it back! No tip! At all!!! Luckily, I was already out there, so I took the ride. Door dash compensated me a bit. Not enough, of course, but still, better than nothing on what would have otherwise been a dead head return. But if the offer had been only $2 I probably wouldn’t have taken it.

On my way back from one dash, I stopped in at Big Alice to see my trivia friends who still play there. They have spiffy new answer sheets. And there was a table right across the front of the trivia area, where before there had just been another barrel table. Interesting. I didn’t stay long as I was still working, but it was great to see them!

My “Beatles” birthday (64) is coming up next month. In just a little bit really. I am trying to figure out what I want to do. One thing I know I won’t be doing is dashing. Lots of options. I just hope that the one I pick isn’t “sitting around at home doing what I often do.” Though that isn’t a bad option, imho. I probably won’t cook the duck that night, since it is a Tuesday. I’ll probably cook it that weekend. (After my birthday – I should live so long…)

I think I need to make a quiche! I have a lot of eggs. And I haven’t made one in a long time. And I like quiche – egg pie. When I made them more frequently, I often used them as garbage collectors – taking a lot of leftovers and tossing them in. Right now, though, I don’t have a lot of leftovers. We shall see what happens this weekend. Maybe I will have some leftovers to use up. I don’t think I want to make a Taco quiche though…

Tonight, I am going to have Taco Salad! I don’t really have a lot of stuff to go into the salad. But that’s ok, I have the taco meat. Some lettuce. Some cheese. Some salsa (I bought some corn salsa – how’s that for going outside my comfort zone?). And some sour cream. I think taco salads from restaurants have more stuff. Oh well. I am not a restaurant.

Tomorrow is my Friday and I am very happy about that. I really, really like having three day weekends!
