Surprising hubs is an astoundingly difficult thing to do, but this did. Despite me telling him we need to get him into an EV before me (my car gets 10+ higher mpg than his) and that I'd gotten pre-approved for financing with a 30 day deadline to buy, and that we were looking at cars for him. When I actually did it, he was surprised. I saw the car, the price, model, color all worked, and I did it. Much to his displeasure.

@actuallyautistic

He had a meltdown. First the car, then the charger, and now I'm pushing him to get the rate information. Why didn't I involve him in any of this?
Because he agonizes, and can't make a decision. He drags it out until forced into a decision by timing, and then he grumbles about it when he makes the decision I knew he was going to make all along. Let's skip all that and just get to the end.
Hubs is not happy. But he likes the car I bought him.

I'm totally in my element, and hubs is feeling railroaded. Another day in my life.
We've talked about an EV for months, we've looked, I knew what he likes. So I bought him one last week. Yesterday I got the plug installed and ordered the charger for the garage - delivered tomorrow. This morning I told him I need the details on the power rate plan we're on; what rates are charged at which time of day.

Hardcover and paperback get separate shelves, and in descending order of size/thickness.

98.6 is typical, but people have different baselines. I run about a degree lower than that.

I ride grocery carts like a push scooter. Drives hubs nuts, I don't care - it's fun.

I don't know about absorb what's in the music, but those times I can't figure out what I'm feeling, the music I listen to tells me a lot.

Electricians here installing a place to plug in my EV for charging at home, and the internet shuts down. They were all nervous until I'd done some checking. The fiber optic is down, so unless they got into a whole different box than the power (they didn't), it's not them.

Watch out for that Y2K thing - I hear it could be big trouble.

KKKevin McCarthy isn't the leader of anything. He sacrificed the actual authority in order to get a title.
Empty G is the House leader, and the Mango Moron is the GQP leader.
