Day: February 24, 2025

They’re using you
To kill all the echoes still
Around
From the sound
Of calendars crumbling
Don’t you worry girl, don’t you worry
Whole world’s in too big a hurry

Well after today, we can put a fork in the month of February 2025. A cloudy start to the day, but it will be warming up as the day progresses and should be helping the snow melt by afternoon. Should be a good day to wash Big Red after work 🛻 and see how much sheet metal is still left on the rocker panels. And get laundry done. The sun this afternoon should keep the batteries topped off and then it’s just a matter of the oil pump bringing the oil up to pressure and being off. I’ll give Red a while to warm before leaving, but it shouldn’t take too long with temperatures expected to be well above freezing.

Busing it in today, hopefully catching the earlier express bus in to give me a bit of time to walk in the Plaza before catching the earlier shuttle over to the Spaceship Enterprise in suburbia next to old city dump and sewage treatment plant. It’s funny, it hasn’t stunk so much lately, and with my candle warmers my office is always the best smelling place, but it beats the toilet smell of the air, especially outside of the office. I am sure it will be different come summer. I sometimes think they sent me there, as I survived many months working in Madison County, counting the trucks hauling corn, silage and manure up and down US Route 20.

Enjoying my grapefruit after having a pan of spinach, onion, and other frozen vegatables mixed with eggs and lots of turmeric. Yes, I had eggs for breakfast this morning, I must be rolling in the big bucks as Mr. Director. I do like my turmeric, and eggs for a while were a relatively healthy source of protein, though with a lot of saturated fat. Maybe it’s good to be cutting back to two eggs and having them more occasionally, due to the high price. 🧅 Usually when I’m not making eggs, it’s pancakes or johnnycakes, which include usually an egg both for the protein and because they hold together with an egg in the batter. 🥞

I am now seeing a ton of ads for campgrounds and RVs. 🏕️ Another thing the confused algorithms are getting wrong about me serving up ads. 🤖 I get it they have to serve some kind of ad and I don’t buy a lot of shit.  📦 I stayed at a campground a few times but I don’t like it if I can avoid it. Think one time in Virginia on the Blue Ridge Parkway got yelled at for burning shit. I’m all about wilderness camping where I can make as much noise as I want and burn whatever with nobody caring. If I wanted to spend time in a city, I would stay home. 🏡
