Hot. Sunny. humid. Man, I need to change the batteries in my weather station.<\/p>\n
Yesterday was hot, and humid, with lots of fluffy clouds and some blue sky. No rain at home or my secondary location.<\/p>\n
I did auction pickups today, and went to my secondary to meet a guy about some stuff he bought but never picked up. It was buried, and I couldn’t get to it. Conveniently for him, it’s enough unburied that it could be pulled out for him. However, he stood me up. Rescheduled for this morning.<\/p>\n
That made me late to our “Fifth Grade Graduation Parade.” I was a bit skeptical of the idea, and thought a 5th grade graduation was hokey anyway… but I’m glad I made it. I waved from the side of the road as dozens of decorated cars and trucks drove by with the kids waving back. I’d forgotten that I know all these kids from my Hands On Science class, and they think of me as a teacher, who some I’m sure wanted to see one last time. I was very happy to see the kids, and when they recognized me waving, they smiled and sat up and waved. It felt really good. I wasn’t thinking past my own kids, and that was a mistake. My daughter was in a great mood afterwards too.<\/p>\n
Hit the takeout lane for our favorite greek casual dining and ate restaurant food for the first time in 2 1\/2 months. And it was good.<\/p>\n
That led right into story time, and bed, and then me checking the news.<\/p>\n
Holy moly, the riots are coming. I hope everyone had been getting ready. I almost flubbed it myself. I’ll be carrying my bear spray today as I go back out to meet my buyer.<\/p>\n
And I might stop by my favorite toy store and do a bit of meatspace relationship maintenance.<\/p>\n
Then it’s back home to see if the pool has everything we need to set it up. Savvy readers will note that I skipped rotten potato cleanup, and delayed the pool project. Delayed but can’t avoid.<\/p>\n
Dinner was restaurant food, and dang it was good.<\/p>\n
Avoid crowds, keep your situational awareness higher than mine, and keep stacking.<\/p>\n
