Back Up the Hill?

Emily and I are supposed to go back up to Incline today after work. I think there is about a 10% chance I can get Emily to go. She is already trying to back out. This is not surprising.

I believe she has not been up to the mountains, except passing through, in over twenty years. She does not like cold, elevation, or skiing. Which is what the rest of us like in winter. But, at the super bowl party she volunteered she wanted to go. So I thought, hey this could happen. Not looking good right now. Though she looks good. Ok, Emily just left and she is not going to go up the hill. I think the only way to do it is drug her and abduct her. That may work. I swear to God I do not know why she offers and backs out. All she has to say is nothing or no thank you. Both work. Now I gotta figure out when or if I am going up since she isn’t. It’s really time to go work out.

After workout went home. I have an appointment at 11 and need to get ready. So I get a call from the office that my ten o’clock was there. Only I have them at 11. Sucks. I blame them.

So I rushed through getting ready and skipped everything. Out the door at 1023 and call the office. Turns out client dropped his crap and left and no one called me. So I went to the tire shop since I now had time. As mentioned yesterday, my tire pressure warning light was on while up the hill. So I went to check on the health of my tires. One had lost air since nice yesterday. Turns out I had a busy Ed tire from hitting a pothole which damaged the bead. The other had a smashed sidewall. So need two new tires and these are orphan sizes so won’t have till tomorrow. I am not going back up the hill. Settled that. I have a good excuse.

Tire guy put the damaged tires back on my car and over aired them so I could drive to work. Be back tomorrow morning.

Drove to work without incident, which, for a change, is truly saying something.

I have no other appointments today. So I just have work. And I worked till 6. I wonder what I did? Work never seems so earth shattering that it causes a memory to stick. It was just work. I talk to many people, move around a bunch of paper and wish I was somewhere else. Every day. I understand your jealousy.

As I was saying, I left the office at 6. Again, drive was uneventful fortunately.

Emily and I went out to dinner. I let her pick so we went to Rose Garden Thai. Emily is a Thai fan. We both ordered something different than we usually order. Emily, for the first time ordered Thai ice coffee. What a night. It is the usual Friday night activities.

We are home watching TV. Nothing new on the tube. Yet we continue to watch. Go figure. Soon we get to go to bed. One of the days highlights.
