Feb 23, 2023

Near perfect day — except for more darned wind — in the Ville today. My day started with an event and I’ll let you guess what that was:

Selfie at doctor's office

You’re right! Doctor’s visit and obligatory selfie. An early appointment (after I logged a grand total of 3.6 hours of sleep 😴), and the only thing we gleaned from it was that she can eat a hamburger and has her yearly physical coming up soon.

The stories I hear when in a car with those Pesky neighbors is invaluable.

Even if I already know them by heart — or a close version anyway — it’s still interesting when they talk about times past.

“For it is by listening to stories that we learn how to do the mightiest of deeds.”

Elder Poa

Does it matter that the wise one quoted above is a Walrus Innkeeper in a game I play? (World of Warcraft) I don’t think so! And neither does Dharma…

Dharma loves stories!

TIL (Today I Learned): Rusty objects don’t give you tetanus, but a bacteria found in soil. That’s why we associate a rusty nail found in soil with tetanus. A random rusty chair is just a random rusty chair.
