I may have eaten fast food 3 times last year solely due to it being the only thing open when passing through. Arbys classic beef and cheddar at 1 am while beating the Nevada heat by driving at night.

A Mcdonald's egg McMuffin at 0600 while heading out for a booked drift trip

A santa fe chicken sammich from carls jr from the truckstop while I was gassing up the coach with a trailer on and had zero room to park anywhere.

I regretted each time.

If you need to be at an Arby’s you need to get the market fresh sandwiches if you want a minimally regrettable experience.

I hadn't eaten fast food in years until our kids got older.

holy fuck. I think this is round 3 with Covid for me. and this one's a doozy. nasty bronchial cough, congestion, massive splitting headache, hot/cold spells, nausea, (almost) vomiting, and sore joints. fuckin' lovely. my basement renos are on hold as the contractor doesn't want to come in, and my BC bike trip is most likely down the toilet.

:disgust:

Yikes. The current round of COVID is getting close to me. I was supposed to go to an event with someone two Saturdays ago. They had symptoms the following Tuesday. Another friend is coming off a few weeks of Covid exhaustion. I’m feeling pretty thankful I didn’t get it during this CA heatwave or I might’ve had some real struggles.

Last night I started having the same issues as before with the inability to regulate my body temperature. Was cold at 72*, woke up with night sweats and got cold sleeping under my 20* quilt. Tonight it will drop down to the 40s. I have no business being on trail until I can get this figured out. So I’m heading home.

Housekeeping brought one of those automatic scent sprayers for the bathroom that make the outhouse smell like a woman's hair, but just set it on the counter until Maintenance can install it. So I come out of the stall after taking a shit that would make a Kodiak bear proud and what do I see? One of our esteemed sales staff looking into the hole on the front like the secrets of the universe were in there. As I open my mouth to warn him, it sprays him right in the eye from three inches away. He screams, throws it on the floor (breaking it) and runs out of the bathroom. I CANNOT STOP LAUGHING.

Recently walked by some neighbors struggling to move a mobile basketball hoop. They asked for my help and I recommended draining the water from the base and to tilt it back on its wheels like it was designed to be moved.

One of the reasons I like living out by the forest is I'm the smartest person for miles and miles around here. And I'm not that smart.

I am surrounded by highly educated people with zero common sense who have never done a day of real work in their lives. Except for my neighbor who is an electrician.

I actually got the sandwich. They used to do the PoBoy with chicken strips that was pretty good. Used to hit the one on I5 when going to my buddies house back in the day. The new sandwich is pretty good, but the setup in town is a hot mess.
