The past 36 hours have been pretty good! I didn't sleep too well night before last, but was able to make up for it last night. Fell asleep early and woke up at my usual time, fairly well rested!

With the purchase of tags for my car and a proper oil change (not just me sticking oil in the engine), all of my car maintenance and car logistics are done with for the time being. My father seems to have mellowed out on his whole angry bait and switch on me covering labor for my car. Sleep seems to have wiped his memory and I'm not going to encourage recall. I'll say this: I have no problem paying him back, but I have a huge problem with him only asking for payment after the fact. I'll keep a $25 "installment" check sitting in my desk drawer and call it good there.

I've been able to start having a life! I bought two tickets, one for a Rocky Horror Picture Show.... showing in October and a blues-rock concert in November. It's going to be nice to go to a Rocky Horror showing where people understand what they're getting into! Last three times I went to see it, people complained to theater management about people being rowdy and yelling at the screen. That's the fun of the show, riffing on the movie, having your props, etc, wouldn't you agree? I get a free prop kit with my ticket, so these guys know what they're doing!

For the concert in November, I actually get to see friends I haven't seen in any real fashion since COVID started. They're band promoters that I've known since I graduated high school. (This concert is one of their "gets" for the venue.) They're always great to be around and always make a place at their table when they see me. I think it's safe to say I'm more excited for this one than Rocky Horror, and I love Rocky Horror!

Work was even good too! It almost turned into a wash yesterday, but a late afternoon rush brought my sales numbers up to good levels! Seven phones in a weekday afternoon? I'll take it!

Here's to a good day today!
