Cattle prod the dog owner.
I've been rationalizing it out.
It was just an accident.
Owner coulda been more controlling, dog could be better behaved and I coulda, shoulda just yelled at him.
The annoyance was keeping the bike so buffed for years and having it happen like that.
Finding a new tank is almost fruitless and they're about $900; and a black one is impossible to find.
Whatever. I've gotten over it. My steam blow up seemed to have worked.
Since the client is 80 and just fought off the lung cancer, I'ma forego the prodding, but yer not wrong.
You should try Yoga, holding on to material things is unhealthy.
Surrender to the Flow
Is that what you do when your neighbors introduce themselves?
Rushed to get to a 2:00 appointment and barely made it on time only to find out the appointment is at 2:30.
You’re obsessed with my neighbors for some reason, which I find amusing. Do you cry when you listen to Jason whine?Quote:

I’ve been fucking up that way a lot lately, only worse. Showed up a day early for a haircut appointment and a day late for a vehicle appointment.Quote:

You read about Trump and all of a sudden you notice that there are 12 posts about Trump every day, when in fact there always have been and always will be.)
When you stop noticing that you're forgetting things, THEN you have Alzheimer's. But you won't worry about it because you'll have forgetten there is such a thing.
That’s actually kind of comforting, though I suppose my relatives and offspring won’t find it comforting at all.Quote:

Not at me, I know, but punk and metal are my 2nd and 3rd middle names. FTRQuote:

But I am fretting this La Nina...rarely good for us. Gonna be road tripping.
My life is chock full o' patina too. But any idea that I am tied to anything is misled. I have a 21 yr. old moto, a 28 yr. old Pathy and a 10 yr. old TDI wagon. I put almost nothing into having things and have been a follower of the tao te ching for over 30 years.
For a variety of other reasons, I do indeed need me some yogas.
I consider us older hipsters as the Last Bohemians...Quote:

I've had to rejoin reality somewhat and go into the office a couple mornings per week lately. I have a meeting that gets out at 10:30 so I typically drive back home then under the assumption that driving back midday would be better than waiting till the end of the day and rush hour. Maybe, but not much. I can't believe how bad traffic has been between 10:30 and 11:00 am. I would have thought everyone was where they needed to be by then. Of course I must also acknowledge that I'm part of the problem! Maybe WFH has just spread out traffic throughout the day. Too many people coming and going throughout the day now?
Traffic everywhere is fucked from all his stuff, there used to be a pattern but now it's just random particles in motion.
People used to be like, I'll stop by the grocery store, the hardware store and the dry cleaner on the way home from work but now they're all their own separate little trips.
As a person that's been working mostly remotely for 30 years I can tell you the concept of busy times and rush hour have been vastly obliterated.Quote:

I have a long list of reasons why I hate the local for profit power company, SDGE. Like failing to maintain their lines and burning down the county and then charging us to pay for the settlement. I was looking over my last SDGE bill and noticed a new line item "Minimum Charge Adjustment." Called to ask what it was and turns out they now charge a fee if you don't use enough power per month. Insanity. I don't have solar and used 281 kWh, so greater than 50% of baseline.
Are they actually local or just a local subsidiary of a foreign company? We've got the latter, and they're bad enough that there's a ballot measure this fall to have the state take over and have a public utility rather than a privately held one.Quote:
