It's slow going on my wicking tubs, but I do have 1 completely finished with a 2nd on the way, as it's now 27C downstairs where the construction is happening (where the use of a paint stripping heat gun, on low, to make the builders plastic more pliable) or outside in the sun adding the guru mix to the 1st where it's 25C (feels like 26C) in the shade.

Anyhow I'm going to have a quick cool down beer break upstairs here where it's a very nice 20C (feels like 17C) ATM with heat locked out and the box fan causing a gale.

Cheers.

I'm over in Civilisation, at least for the start of the week... Very much enjoying the more civilised aspects!

Meanwhile, new equipment has been installed... Unfortunately, there's already a hiccup with the burocracy before we can start using it...

So, the question comes... Where am I going to be when needed to start the new operations? Plans are there to get broken?...


Meanwhile in the winter darkness, this weather is weirdly mild...

20 years in the Wilderness, Civilization? It still exists?

Winning on a Tuesday morning as a glow begins in the east where it's currently 17C with 26C expected before showers and thunderstorms arrive.

Anyhow it's time for a coffee.

Cheers.

On Tuesday I think I'm going to the ER and have my left forearm examined, it hurts a lot when I'm at my desk, just not as much as when I'm laying down like on my sofa.

2000mg of acetaminophen and muscle relaxant pills barely make a dent, both are prescribed to me.

I've also had to ask the manager to put off $100 of my rent until next month(Dec 31st 2024), I have enough for a cash advance of $100 but 2 separate atms and the bank said they can't do that and the money is available too according to the people that I talked too, something is broken.

Under $50 and the bank won't charge me, over that it becomes $50 added to my shortfall, lovely, sorry I can't say more.

All it took was a 3 instead of a 2.

I hate being gluten intolerant too, I just had to make a quick getaway, so to speak.

Herman Munster with blue skin, not exactly appealing, it was an unaired pilot in color on youtube, green like was done in the Munster movies was better, Eddie was horrible and Lily wasn't cast yet, it was not even 14 minutes long. I have a 6'5" tall friend, he would fit into the costume easily since Fred Gwynne was also 6'5" tall, elevator shoes not withstanding.

The manager just said ok to the $100 delay.

The temp made it to a very humid and overcast 25C (felt like 24C), but none of that rain turned up.

Anyhow it's about time I called it a night in preparation for getting these annoying stitches out of my leg in the morning.

Cheers.

It will. But why $64 billion? Betting odds?
