Good Morning!!!! 54F @ 6:00AM. Foggy early, becoming sunny this afternoon. High near 80F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.
Time got away from me yesterday morning and I almost missed my appointment with the DMV. Made it right on time, even after the GPS in the car kept me driving by a place a block away. Finally found fresh corn on the cob on the third store I tried. Felt foolish walking out of there with just three ears of corn, but I like it fresh, and that's all I can eat in as many days.
Settled on an insurance company for the house and set the wheels in motion for coverage. I'm a little bit worried that it's what I think is called an "unlisted" agency, which means they are out of state and don't adhere to California financial guidelines. But California being as messed up as it is, that could be a good thing.
Riding buddy seems to have made a full recovery, enough so I got a hard time about not having a radio on my bike to communicate with them. I actually did have the radio, but haven't figured out how to get it to work with the rest of my comms, and was hoping to do that last weekend with another partner we'd planned to meet along the way. I view these two way radios as a luxury: Nice to have but like the internet, somewhat unreliable. Enough so that it shouldn't replace simple ground rules for riding in a group, like waiting for others to catch up at turns, or stopping in a safe place if you're having issues. There's also a library of standard hand signals that everyone in the group should be familiar with, and no one in this group is.
Think I'll resume my search for a family doctor today, lowering my standards and ending up with a clinic of some sort with no assigned doctor. Kinda like Kaiser where each year when I went in for a physical and the doctor they assigned last time had moved on, so nothing new. Better than nothing, which is what I've had for almost two years now.
You run across the strangest things on the internet:
Happy Hump Day, folks!
