And that it would be hot in September in Houston? Oh, everyone? Shii… Because it’s another hot and humid day coming up, following the hot and humid day yesterday. Weatherman. Easiest job in the world. Look out the window. Flip coin to decide if you’ll report what you see, or the opposite. Get paid.
Spent yesterday sweating. Just loading a few bins into the truck had me glistening. Took those bins, dropped them off at the auctioneer, had a few extra minutes, so I stopped at the Mormon thrift store. They usually have very nice stuff. And I got a ryobi chop saw stand, in like new condition, for $20. That’s going to the BOL. Grabbed a CS Lewis audio book, some power adapters, and a couple of DVDs too.
Hit costco for snacks for youngest. She’s never said anything dumb to me, so I’m not on strike for her. Got some steaks for W’s birthday, which is coming up. I’ll have to go back for flowers and cake a bit closer to the day… I’m on strike but I’m not stupid.
Hit the HEB for my groceries.
W now thinks the drip tray in the fridge was the cause of the stink. Hard to tell for sure, but I suspected it from the beginning. Poured some bleach in there, as it was looking pretty nasty. No way to remove or wash it. We’ll see today if the stink got better. The odd thing is that when you get close to it, it doesn’t really smell that strong, but does have a bit of the odor. It seems to get stronger when it’s left undisturbed.
Today I’ve got a couple of pickups to do, on different sides of town. I could put half of them off ’til tomorrow, but I think I’ll just suck it up and do the driving. Can’t make everything into a shared trip.
Then I’ll see what else on the list I can get done.
And how much of it I can count as stacking, or improving my position.
Like you should be doing.
