bike ride complete - 9.5 miles today - short on purpose.  But the wind.... THE WIND..... all sides all direction.  I was not amused.  It's put me in a foul mood.

A question for Jrand: is the planet experiencing some sort of weird vortex that is keeping us from getting things done? I’m slow these days to start with, but the smallest tasks seem to suck up way too much time. DR Chas mentioned something of the sort earlier, if I’m not mistaken. I’m busy, but little seems to get done.

John G, my copy of Hanson’s Fade-out arrived the other day after a two-week wait. I thought I’d read a few pages just to get a taste and couldn’t put it down! The following day the new Rhys Bowen arrived and I couldn’t put that down, either. I’m reading the Bowen first, but was quite impressed with Hansen.

So nice to discover new authors! Especially so when they’ve published quite a few books.

Thanks for mentioning it.

Glad you’re enjoying it.

Rodzinski, you get your car plates in a grocery store!

Do you not?

We went to the DMV, got both our car plates and our personal drivers licenses.

From DR Rodzinski:
Quote
Ultimately the airport didn’t. They’ve been staying in their rental minivan the last two nights. They believe they’ll be flying out tomorrow. Locals have been helpful.

People staying in their rental cars in what I have read about.  Are they still at the airport or in a shopping parking lot?

Haven’t gotten the full story, but they arrived home.

Excellent.  I was just video chatting with a friend and her friends had to rent a car to sleep in.

Futzed and finessed quite a bit. Then I turned on the AC so that if it was blowing warm we'd call Mr. Air. So, of course it worked and it's now 72 degrees in the home environment.

I'll write a few more later, which should take me to the end of a chapter. Once that happens, I'm probably between sixty and a hundred pages from finishing.

In that wind I think you went far.

I once went golfing and didn’t do well because the ball wasn’t hail-sized as I’d expected.

Thanks, all. The DH is playing services at synagogue right now. When it's over and he exits the building, we'll find out if there is any damage.

Fires, winds, hail, heat. It feels like the end of the world.

Oh, I thought that was a meme you put up.  I hope your car is ok.

I guess that’s why I just started The Last of Us.
