So, I dropped the car off at 12:45. The kind mechanic gave me a ride over to Barracks so I could catch the bus. I rode the bus to the south end of the DT mall, then walked home (about five blocks, not far).

Meanwhile, it's raining steadily.

They just called 10 minutes ago and said the car is done. That was quick. I'm guessing they were right--a paperclip or something got pulled into the fan area and was making noise when the fan blades hit it. So I need to get back down there. I'll head back out soon.

I called mbickers to see if she was still in town, but she's at the farm AND she has a cold. When she has a cold, she doesn't squeak and she sounds very befuddled. I told her to rest up and I'd see her whenever she came back.

I've got chickpeas and onions in water--the makings of soup--on the stove. I'll go get the car and then come back and add in the spices and maybe some kale or something similar.

And tonight, I'd like to go to the Scottsville Farmer's Market before we go to see the Two Towers (boy hasn't seen it and tonight's the last night).


***oops. forgot to post before i left. got the car back. yay!

Yeah, so, explodingcat says of qi gong, "I can't wait til I learn how to pull energy from the sun."

I pointed out that doing so would require actual sunlight.

"Yeah, but I reckon I can do the same thing with the full spectrum light, after all, if it can make plants grow, it's gotta have similar energy I can use."

I told him that when the power bill increases, he's paying it. Granted, he always pays the power bill...
