Well I didn't know which car duh!

true enough.

 

Speaking of cars.  Gonna wash off the Mustang tonight and get some new photos of it.  It's a bit of a niche car and I think hubs is asking too much.  With the same photos over and over, people get used to seeing it.

I bought the book To Kill a Mockingbird a couple of weeks ago. A beautifully illustrated edition for younger kids, but not simplified, it has the original language. I sat on it to decide if I should let the older one read it.

Gave it to her a few days ago, she can't put it down. I followed her progress and discuss the book with her. I think she's doing great. Recommend...

 

I also got Anne Frank. And an autographed copy of Lulu the Broadway mouse.

Lunched at same restaurant in Sigsig, Ecu, real name man.

Paid $Many ($2x2x2x2) for Many (2+2+1) people, deal man.

 

Hotel in Cuenca, where we had stayed before & loved it, remodeled in last Many (2x2x2) years, observe we man.

They did NOT improve the bathrooms, no man.

Skinny shower-stall has no shelves (only a soap dish) & inadequate drainage, can´t run water on full lest it flood out man.

We will have to trash the place on TripAdvisor, reluctant we man.

 

Din-din at Papa John´s, mejor ingredientes mejor pizza man.

Paid $Many ($2x2x2x2x2+1) for Many (2+2) people, Mrs. T-B. has no CLUE of how to order pizza man.

Soon to be former boss was at the fair that was more than 2 hours away. Totally refused to acknowledge me, although that was mutual. Her husband and mine are acquaintances as they volunteer together. He didn't say a word either. 🙄

 

Still hasn't replied to my 2 weeks notice.   I'm definitely going to need someone to cover our mutual shifts.*  This is ridiculous. 

 

*One of the new girls didn't bother to reply to my direct inquiry. She's just been cleared to work, so I thought she'd want the shifts.  Annoying. Debating whether to send out an e-mail to several people or work my way down a list and individually text.

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

Apparently issue (aka worlds most annoying car noise) is reproducable for lead tech. Has something to do with vents and A/C.

I think individual would be better to get them covered.

Rolling blackouts here...

 

I remember those from when I was a kid. I thought they would have upgraded the grid/load system since then.

 

I've long been of the belief that all new construction should include solar panels by code, so the cost could be distributed over the course of a mortgage. It would help a lot with these issues.

Again, when census no longer reflects  the population residing here, con ed don't know what to do to accommodate. 

I blame the illegals here. There's 15 ACs sticking out of every window in a fook house...

There's a transformer fire a few blocks from me as we speak.
