Y11 D266

My back needs a cracking this morning. I hibernated and slept too long. Now it's all tight. A good hot shower will help. Slept for like 9 hours. But given that it FUCKING SNOWED again last night, my body probably really did think I needed to hibernate. Had a weird ass dream right before I woke up. I was in this bar in like Vegas and met this group of people whose friend had died and like we became close all of a sudden over it. Really weird shit.

Yesterday I wasted two hours of my life and accomplished zero of the goals I had planned. So I found this used electronics shop I told you about. The website said they opened at 11. Okay. B and I head over there at 11. Nope. The door says 12:30. Fine. We go to the grocery store, get some stuff, head back home. She then heads out to spend the afternoon with her friend and I head back to this shop. I get there about 12:20. 12:30 comes and goes. Finally at 1:30 he shows up. Yes. I sat there for an hour.

Get in the shop and it's pretty cool. Wall after wall of some sick vintage and modern audio video equipment. Racks of restored Marantz tube amps, Carter, McIntosh, Pioneer Elite, Martin Logan speakers, Boston Acoustics, classic HK and Denon models. Rack mount. Pre-corporate Bose equipment. I mean like awesome shit. Unfortunately I want a cheap ass 2 channel receiver and turntable. If I were doing a big project it would be the place I would go. Plus because some old retired nothing better to do on a Saturday white guy got in the door before me, I never even got a chance to talk with the owner. So maybe he did have something for me, but I will never know. All in all, 2 hours of my life gone and nothing to show for it.

I made some nice lamb shoulder chops for dinner with smashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. It was a good dinner. Watched Picard, played Fallout, went to bed. A good Saturday was had.
