Sugar Rush [NOT 10/10/23]

Hi, friends!

Today has been a sugar rush day. Work dropped massive stuff into my lap with ridiculous turnaround time expectations and lucky me I had a bag of licorice!

How did your day go?

  5. Much like my buddy Farscy, I had trouble sleeping & it made for a tough day for motivation.  I thought I was done with travel for awhile but my new electric car just got to port in CA.  I can pick it up near SF or LA or pay to have it delivered.  Cheaper to fly there & drag my buddy along for ride even with our beer detour tab & cheap motel stops.  I guess I will have lots of time to sleep when I’m dead if that’s how it works.

  6. Co-worker: “We’re not going to go through this document line-by-line.”

    Result: We went through the document line-by-line.

    Noted: I’ll be drinking tonight.

    Also noted: I’ll be listening to some albums I bought more than a week ago and have yet to clean and listen to them.

  7. The darndest things parents say… “We’re fine” after I dropped off food for them today.

    My messages says otherwise as the cops and hospital called several times yesterday.

    Why? Because mom and dad got into a dispute as mom doesn’t remember where her home is. She was crying outside and some passerby called 911.

    I spent 25 minutes today speaking to the cops and a confusing 5 minutes speaking to the emergency room doctor who dealt with them overnight.

    It is a sort of good thing we’re in Canada where the cops have some standards. If this were the US then odds are pretty good that one of my parents would be dead or beaten up, arrested and in jail.

  8. I put the warmer duvet on the bed last night and had a grand night’s sleep.  Taught a tai chi class, worked on a music project I got myself into when I was up in Chicago and watched a few innings of the baseball game.  We’ve got some coyote at the edge of the pastures that have been harrassing sheep so we put the big dog Sarah on patrol.  If the coyote show up tonight, they’ll be sorry.

    • One of the amazing things I read about Italy some years ago is that wolves still roam the mountains, but the shepherds have been around them so long that their dogs are great guardians. Wolves, dogs and sheep manage to coexist so that the only time wolves eat sheep is if one of them gets sick or falls off a cliff.

  9. I finally beat The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild!!! That’s a long overdue rush… I started playing six years ago but always quit when I got to Hyrule castle. This is my third time playing it.
