The repair shop called
today—the bottom of the radiator is completely rusted and needs about
$1,200 for repairs. Spring had been thinking about selling
the van anyway, since it had been overcome by entropic forces anyway. She
was able to sell to one of the mechanics.
We headed over there to clean out the contents. Unfortunately, we had to
leave the mattress there since it wouldn't fit in my car, but we made plans
to transport it home with Rob since he has a vehicle large
enough to transport it.
“Hey, what happened to the tuna?” I asked. There was a small Tupperware
container of tuna in the refrigerator.
“I gave it to the cat,” Spring said. “It was old and kinda
off. You can't eat that, but the cat can.”
“Oh?”
“Yea, dogs and cats have great immune systems—it comes from licking
your butt.”
“Ah.”
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
