Not much to report...

I pretty much did what I started out to do today, except for the part where the new battery I bought for the Infiniti didn't have enough of a charge after I drove the car downtown to the post office and back to start the car again after I stopped at the Thai place over by the Pagosa Lodge.

I had been prepared to grab lunch there back at the end of April, but a phone call from Galina caused me to make apologies and leave before my order could be taken. The next day, a sign in the restaurant's window announced the place would be closed until June 15. When I saw the place was open today, I stopped in for some pad thai.

I had planned to take the meal home, but the Infiniti not only would not start, but there wasn't enough juice in the battery to even move the steering wheel into position (something I normally consider an annoyance, except when it doesn't happen, as said failure tells me the battery is very weak). My problem was compounded by having parked head-in, but eventually, I managed to get a jump start from a car with California plates.

The heat has been getting down to the basement during the second half of the day, making it difficult to concentrate. In the end, I actually fell 300 words short of my intended target for the day, but I figure it's nothing to get upset about, nor is it worth any additional effort trying to achieve just for the sake of doing so.

Maybe a little television will help ease the transition to rack time.

Cheers...
