Could be, but the weather was fantastic today. No clouds, sunny, not too hot not too cold, with a cool breeze.
Tomorrow I'll call the transmission shop and make an appointment. Then pray it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to fix the truck.

Still eating Chuck. Today was kimchi fried rice, with Chuck roast. Not recommended if you don't like kimchi.

I am not a fan of kimchi. Happy it works for you though.

I went to the Campbell Music Festival on Saturday. My friend says, "it'll be fun. My girlfriend's friends will be there." Ok, Ok, I'll go. He says it's from 2-5PM. No problem, I'll pound a couple of Sierra's at the pre-party. It was more like 5. Then we get there and the only beer I like is Space Dust. No problem. I've done this before, and proceed to have 3 or 4 of them. Then there's Irish Car Bombs being poured. "Good god, what are you trying to do to me!!!" At that point we're at the bars in Campbell, so I scale it back to Modelos for the rest of the night. In hindsight, I wouldn't have had those Sierras if I knew we were going to stay late.

Appointment is set for Wednesday morning. I'll use the roadside assistance that I have on my truck's insurance policy to get it towed over there.

Happy Tuesday Nor-Cal. Going to be a hot week here in the armpit of Cali. high 90's the next four days with only one day being in the high 80's. If the calendar didn't say otherwise, I would think it was Summer already.

It's official. We now have a prostitute zone. City Street signs indicate such.
