40,000 Raindrops

Friday after lunch we went on a walk around our end of town, mostly on road, but with some double-track dirt road thrown in. It was chilly (upper 40s), but the sun was shining, so when we got home I suggested taking the Miata out for a spin. It had been since last Friday we last drove it. Then it was sluggish to start, but this time it wouldn’t turn over at all. Had to pull the Mini around to give it a jump. We then took a nice little 20 mile spin (stopping once to take the new blog header image) and parked it in the garage. This time I remembered to put the battery tender on it, so next Friday it should fire right up. A new battery is planned for later when we can actually go on a trip or something.

Yesterday the Ladybug ticked over the 40,000 mile mark while dodging raindrops on the way home from a Jimmy Johns pickup lunch.

Track 14 – Twist In My Sobriety

Although from looking at the title and the images in this video you almost believe that Tanita Tinkaram is of American Indian descent, but in actuality she was was born in Münster, Germany, the daughter of a Indian-Fijian British Army officer and a Malaysian mother. This song is from her 1988 debut album Ancient Heart and I still occasionally hear this song on Radio Paradise.

Schrodinger’s Virus

We all have Schrodinger’s Virus.

Because we cannot get tested, we can’t know whether we have the virus or not.

We have to act as if we have the virus so that we don’t spread it to others.

We have to act as if we’ve never had the virus because if we didn’t have it, we’re not immune.

Therefore, we both have and don’t have the virus.

Thus, Schrodinger’s Virus.
