Sometimes Jeremy Corbyn looks almost like he's alive. It's kinda creepy.

Sitting in the waiting area at the gas station. My 24 year old car is next in line for safety inspection and emissions test.

Yes! They came with my car and I jumped in a drove away instead of updating you all.

And then I fixed my dome light that hadn't worked for a year or so on the door setting. I spent like 2 hours cleaning contacts and checking continuity and voltage and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Finally a Google search told me that I needed to fix a loose rivet, so that's when I noticed a loose rivet was actually the problem. An awkward maneuver consisting of a center punch in a vise and holding the dome light over the punch while holding a nail set with the same hand and whacking it with a hammer with the other hand fixed it perfectly. Replaced the old dim bulb with a bright LED and it's better than new.

Breaking shit that desperately deserves it can be very satisfying also.

Hoping Polo Girl's long-planned Spring Break trip might actually work out. She's the biggest Harry potter Freak and doing a masters degree in Florida. So visiting the Wizarding World was immediately on her plans once accepted. And now COVID. Many parks in Orlando have closed. She drove down today. universal says it's closing on Monday. Hoping beyond all hope she gets her visit in on Sunday. She's too knackered from driving to do it tomorrow. Please stay open per your aannouncement, Universal

It needs to be this year. Next Spring she wanted to do Starwars, But... highly unlikely her required dig in Rome is going to go ahead this summer, so she might have to be fulfilling that course requirement next spring

That's what I thought. Might be awesome..... and the employees still need to get paid. You don't go to a theme park to be social, just don't huddle up in line, use hand sani, don't touch your face, it'll be fine. fine. Then stay away from old people.

The biggest thing in her favor is she's young and healthy, so even if exposed to it she'll have flu symptoms for a week or two then be immune.
