Some guy keeps putting a post it note on my car's mirror that says "IF YOU WANT TO SELL YOUR CAR CALL ME 415-xxx-xxxx THANK YOU TONY". Found the third one this morning

I don't know why Tony is so interested in my 2002 Ford but I guess he really wants it

Not so much in town. there is one tiny rust bubble that hasn't even popped through the paint on the back tailgate. and i can scotch brite that down and hit it with duplicolor and be good

i even tapped the underside of the rocker panels with my multi tool, those are the first to go on these, but nope, solid as can be

i need to remember how to drive a huge vehicle. i was in a 45 just bopping along today and looked down and was doing 63 lol

i wish we had an actual fall this year instead of going from 85 degrees directly to 40 degrees in the daytime so I could have taken a week off to get in some quality hammock time with my kindle, leaving only as determined by the progress of the beer in/beer out cycle and my perceived risk of getting west nile virus based on mosquito density

good question.

also, follow-up, i took this week off, asked my student workers to clean up storage rooms and do inventory, gave them raises without asking or telling my boss, and did my usual passive-aggressive thing by setting an out of office message on my voicemail saying "please leave a message and I'll call you back on Monday" but disabled voicemail so it hangs up on them instead of taking a message.

I wonder if this is like that japanese monastery that has 1 star on yelp or airbnb because they served gruel and didn't give a poo poo about the tourists because I'm going to lose a lot of respect if it doesn't deep commit and is just a bunch of rich-seeking hippy bullshit
