psipsyDuring a small day trip, I made a miscalculation of closing times of a few places and all I had to really show for it was sitting in bad traffic. That happens sometimes. Then on the way home, I stopped at a Denny's, and had pancakes that were prepared on the same griddle as something else that had onion, as evidenced by bits of fried onion in the pancakes. It made for an interesting taste, and I'm not gonna lie, I was not against it. And there are far worse things one could find in pancakes from Denny's.
I've been doing more experimenting with N-gauge model trains. The good part: I can fit almost 4x the track plan and trains in the same area as HO, and it opens up a lot of options in modeling themes. If I wanted a model of the Shinkansen in HO, I'd have to spend an eye-watering amount of money. But in N, the full 16-car set can be had for well under $300, which is really not much in model railroading. Peanuts, I say. The bad part: Doing any kind of inevitable repair work would be much harder than in HO.
Sometimes Youtube will send me music recommendations that are good. So I'll go looking for more of it. Then I find it was released 15 or 20 years ago, and all my usual sources come up dry. Then for the hell of it, I'll look in some of the unexplored folders on my home server and there it is. On top of that, it was already added to the main music library a bunch of years ago, and some of the tracks also have play counts.
One of my dental crowns popped out and I had to get it reattached. Did you know that after the crown comes off, the tooth starts shifting in 48 hours and the more time elapses, the harder it is to put it back on? At least I didn't accidentally swallow it. That would have really bit me in the ass.
