"Afternoon, all. I ignored the Teen Drama Event, so it fizzled into a Teen Inertia Event." Even parents who don't have cars have to drive their kids.

A marmalade squee to start my day. Excellent.
This morning, so far (45 minutes into it for me) I don’t feel too bad. That may change as I move around more.
I didn’t get the letter to my grandson written yesterday. My brane just fried itself before I could even pull up a blank sheet to work on. I will try again today.
Since I mailed out the letters concerning the meddling influence of the Klingon, I’m hoping this nomination, too, falls between the cracks and we can start over with real people and not hand-picked puppets.

Hope you have a better day than some others! I’m leaving for WW with whomever is in the van when I drive away. Say a prayer: Bill the Son is having an interview right now with an advertising company.

Prayer said.
I had the steroid, but I need the one for breathlessness. I have a bone spur on the first knuckle of my right big toe. I need to get some different shoes, but I don’t know what I need more: Shoes or a haircut.

Mine is. I’m dragging in slow motion through this and that. I went to Walmart.

WalMart will do that to you.
Today is just a “do stuff and stay off the Net” day I guess.

I want one!
That is really amazing. Like most radically new technology, it is unsettling at first. But I love it!

"Like most radically new technology, it is unsettling at first. But I love it!" I've been trying to think of an easy and elegant way to convert wheeled motion to leg-walking. I think the right way is to control how the lowermost leg part has an extension mode, so that the vehicle can remain somewhat level over uneven terrain.
Should be easy with today's technology. Of course, nothing would beat the utility of the spider robot I designed about umpteen years ago. I'm surprised no one has built a few of those. They'd be perfect for farm work. You could go from picking apples to rescuing your tractor from a mud-bog.

Yes, it is. I’m not sure I trust him, though.

Thanks, NoC! I wonder what it would be like to have coffee this time of day instead of waiting for 0930 when I go outside.
