A brief venture in the Great Outdoors

[gridlore]

Or at least into Coco's for a BASFA meeting. Even though we've been members for twenty years, we've rarely been able to attend meetings due to work and life issues. But the club generously donated money to us during the battle with EDD, and I felt I had to thank them in person.

Good seeing people, and just getting out of the house! I was rapidly going from James Stewart in Rear Window to Jack Nicholson in The Shining in terms of cabin fever. Also had an awesome French Dip. Simple sandwich, but you'd be amazed how many places can screw it up.

The only bad thing was we had to bail early due to my damn travel tank. It's supposed to be good for four hours at 2 liters. After an hour, I was showing empty and getting nothing. We need to contact the supplier, I think this tank may have a leak.

But now that I don't have to get up at 0430 I definitely want to try to make more meetings. Even if they did auction me off for ten bucks. I come with accessories for Pete's sake!

The next great trip into the world is for a serious haircut.

In other news, the Giants beat the Texas Rangers 4-1, and now lead the World Series 5 games to 1. :)

It was great seeing you there.
We do hope to see you more often.
Take care over there.

Don't let them give you any guff about the tank. Besides the problems of you running out early, a leaky oxygen tank is a rather large safety hazard.

Though I can see another possibility... It may be good for 4 hours at full pressure, but your home setup isn't filling it that full.

Or they gave you the specs for tank X, but supplied you with tank Y. (unless the specs were packed with the tank, I'd suspect that)

Why not make it a fun haircut? ;)

Haircuts. Serious Business.

I'm getting it mowed down to stubble for a simple reason. Showers are such an exhausting procedure for me these days that if I can cut out having to deal with my hair, it's that much easier. That, and I prefer having Army-short hairdos.

Well, shit, if the Rangers/Giants are playing the *long* series, you can just hang on to the rest of the chili till it's resolved.

Best of 113?
