The way the jack works once it's in place was the same as I am used to, but the spot where it attaches to the car was disorientingky different - I just assumed it was a Prius thing. Anyway, I am almost the proud owner of a new tire, just waiting to pay and get my keys back. And I got to join the Zoom birthday for my dad for a while (in which we compared notes on natural disasters, for the most part) and I should be able to make it over to my parents' for dinner. And the best part is I forgot I had put some money in savings so paying for the new tire is not going to be as much of a challenge as I first thought!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Adventure, -t! Always more fun in retrospect

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just had a few friends over in the driveway and it was delightful!! I miss going out with friends.
Now I'm watching some dumb movie on Netflix and this lawyer said her mission is to help the helpless, and wasn't that Angel?

Are her rats low?
The folks in my dad's office (he's retired but president of the board of an RCD so RCD people are his coworkers) gave him a surprise drive by birthday party yesterday. He was super touched and my mom thinks that is how all parties should be forever. I did make it here by teatime and we picked up salmon dinners downtown and ate at either end of the extended dining room table to maintain distance and it was lovely. We still have cupcakes to eat but we are all too full of salmon just yet.

What's an RCD?
I was hoping the new Netflix Home Edit show would be my new soothing favorite as they organize shit, but no, I find them way way too annoying. Sigh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
-t, I'm glad the day got better after the flat tire. Those are never convenient.
meara, a friend has told me she finds The Repair Shop to be a soothing watch. I'm not sure which platform it's on.

RCD = Resource Conservation District
It's a lot of how does grazing or development affect the watershed? Who is responsible for these levees? Can we get grants to support ecological education? That sort of thing.
BTW I found the manual that tells you exactly where the jack goes. It was in the pocket of the driver's door, where it would be convenient and obvious. Well, maybe I will remember that next time. But I put the jack in the right spot, so that's a relief.

Oh, -t, such an eventful trip! Glad you got there in time for dinner.
