A couple of cool things happened yesterday. First while I was doing laundry; I had my little laundry card and I thought I had it down to the penny for the amount I needed to do. Turned out I was .25 short. I didn't feel like walking all the way to the machine and putting a $10 on it as that's all I had in my wallet. Out of chance I asked another guy who was doing laundry if he minded using his card and when we met back up in 45 minutes when our clothes were done, I would give him the $1.25 back. He used his card but when we both came back in 45 minutes he refused to take the dollar. Nice. Thanks dude for restoring a small part of my faith in humanity.
Second thing is while it ended up taking me all day, I got the motorcycle operational again. First I needed a new battery. Then it turns out motorcycle batteries need to have the acid added to them. I know, weird right? Then I had to wait an hour for it mellow. Then I discovered that a new battery needs to be trickle charged. Sigh. Back to the store for a trickle charger. THEN the one I buy is bad. But this time I sent the kid and KBF back to the store. They were going out anyway. By the time they got back and by the time the battery was charged it was 8pm. The battery needed to rest an hour after that. All in all it was 9:30 by the time I got the battery installed and operational. But I did it. I rode that sucker last night and it felt good. I plan on taking it to the show tonight if the weather holds out.
In addition to all that, I worked on my puzzle, cleaned the house, and watched the following. My day. Whee.
