wine with friends

Had a nice day in Amador County with friends. Started at Rombauer and stopped by Turley, home of the worst red wines on the planet. 

Came back to the house and dropped $117 to have two, XL pizzas delivered. Totally worth it.

Another evening walk in the 94 degree heat. 

metaphors are tricky

I still have miles to go on the dissertation writing but I’m getting really good at toilet repairs. 

Replaced the tank flap and installed a new handle in under twenty minutes. I'm pretty proud of my work. 

There’s a metaphor in there somewhere.

what i’m into lately

I really like it. And, every time I do it, I want more. I’ve really been into walking lately. What did you think I meant, weirdo? 

I like it in the early morning, and the late afternoon. That’s my preference but, on occasion, I’ve gotten on it midday. 

The lighting at aunrise or sunset is amazing, though. Over the summer break, I was going at sunrise because it is coolest part of the day. Now that I’m back at work, I’m beginning to walk around sunset. And I’m going to keep doing it.
