Today I should do something. I was thinking about driving to a large Asian grocery store. I haven't been to one in ages. It's only about 20-25 mins from my home, but I rarely drive that direction and as odd as this may seem, that trip would be a bit stressful. I rarely drive to my dad's anymore, which is 35 mins away. The only slightly longer drive I regularly make is about 20 mins every Friday to my therapist. I'm OK driving downtown or even more locally, but do so only as really needed.
Moreta, it looks like a politics type crime. No? I don't understand how the world has come to the point where people vandalize, demonize, or even send death threats to political candidates, news reporters, and even people who report sexual abuse, etc. Such offenders don't seem to have any respect for democracy. If they don't like people with differing views, they should just vote against them, not watch them, avoid them, compete against them, write opinion pieces about them, or at the most, organize peaceful protests again them. We don't live in the wild wild west.

I have a driving problem too, especially with driving into Houston, which is not that far from where I live depending on the part of it (the city sprawls a lot). Lots of interesting places I could go to or markets to shop at though I haven't got any money to spend anyway. Though here we do have a lot of Mexican food places, sometimes bakeries, food trucks. The area H teaches at is highly Hispanic, so we go to places there sometimes, but not lately, trying to save money. Financial issues suck so much.
