Good morning! Yeap, it’s Friday the 13th! 👾

Drive safely as they say. Statistically its not a particularly dangerous day, if anything people are more careful how they drive and what they do on such a day.

Cloudy with some sprinkles of rain and 65 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌧️ Calm wind. The dew point is 58 degrees. The skies will clear around 9 am.

Taking the later express bus 🚍 downtown as I wasn’t moving that fast this morning 🏃 and I don’t think it will be a great morning for walking laps on the Plaza. I still should get in 3,000 to 4,000 steps in walking down to the express and from the Empire Plaza bus garage to work.

Last night I went down to Elm Avenue park 🏞 and read 📖 for about an hour, and read more of Willie Robertson’s American Hunter. I won’t say it’s the most academic text ever but still an interesting read.

I been thinking about playing the dip ▶ in the market and buying some more stock with things being down although probably there will be a dead cat 🙀 bounce before my trade is completed. I have some extra money from my tax refund 💵 and it’s just losing value as inflation eats away at everything.

The CDTA nature bus 🚍 returns this summer, though it looks like the service is just a skeleton of what it was last year. Only runs to Thacher Park 🏞 every two weeks and and much fewer trips and no stops at Five Rivers on the way to Thacher Park. I’m a little bit disappointed, I enjoyed the service last year. Might use it once or twice but probably far less. Sucks, especially with gas prices so high. ⛽ I might instead just go back to walking out to Five Rivers.
