Then I called my AAA emergency number where I was greeted by the AI attendant

vixmom · « **Reply #121 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:51:44 PM »

However it did send me a link to my phone that allowed me to put in a service call

vixmom · « **Reply #122 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:52:26 PM »

Then I called WFO to let him know I wasn’t going to make it and Vixdad to let him know what was happening

vixmom · « **Reply #123 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:53:56 PM »

The AI called me back to tell me the service would be there in an hour, but I was pleasantly surprised when I received a call from a real live human in less than 20 minutes.

He told me he was the tire guy and asked exactly where I was in the parking lot.

vixmom · « **Reply #125 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:54:58 PM »

So I described the area, and went out and put up the hood and the rear hatch

“Ah, I see you!” He said and then I saw the tire repair truck heading towards me

vixmom · « **Reply #127 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:57:13 PM »

I had already opened up the hatch where the “donut” lives, and he very quickly changed the tire and put the flat into the back of the van

vixmom · « **Reply #128 on:** October 23, 2024, 06:58:18 PM »

I gave him $10 and went merrily on my way home

Tomorrow morning I plan to pop by my car place to see if they can plug the tire and put it back before I go to work

I am so relieved that it was relatively painless, DR vixmom.

Are you going to arrive with another box o' donuts?

vixmom · « **Reply #132 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:00:11 PM »

I will probably get a dozen donuts as a ~~bribe~~ inducement.

Last night I went into The City to see a friend play in a cover band at The Cutting Room.

vixmom · « **Reply #134 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:02:20 PM »

I met a couple of other friends there.

vixmom · « **Reply #135 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:02:44 PM »

It’s a nice venue with tables and dinner service

vixmom · « **Reply #136 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:03:34 PM »

I ordered the latkes with apple bourbon sauce and sour cream as my appetizer.

vixmom · « **Reply #137 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:04:26 PM »

It came with 4 nice latkes , 2 of which I ate and 2 of which I saved for later

vixmom · « **Reply #138 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:05:28 PM »

For my main dish I had eggplant parmigiana which was served with a delicious meat sauce over linguine

vixmom · « **Reply #139 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:06:08 PM »

I ate about half of that and then packed the rest and the extra latkes in a takeaway box

vixmom · « **Reply #140 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:06:34 PM »

The leftovers made a delicious lunch today

The violence in the Anthony Hopkins Lear is scary stuff, especially the scene where Emily Watson blinds Jim Broadbent.

vixmom · « **Reply #142 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:07:55 PM »

The show was fun and we hung around a bit and chatted with our musician friend

vixmom · « **Reply #143 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:08:56 PM »

Then we walked back to Penn where I was pleased to find my train home was already on the track quite near to where we entered

vixmom · « **Reply #144 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:09:07 PM »

I was home shortly after midnight

Let copulation thrive.

I always forget that great line comes from Lear.

What?

Not Jim Broadbent!

vixmom · « **Reply #147 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:12:31 PM »

I quite like him

singdaw · « **Reply #148 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:14:25 PM »

I am quite squeamish about violence on screen (small or big screens).

singdaw · « **Reply #149 on:** October 23, 2024, 07:14:41 PM »

So it sounds like not the thing for me to watch.
