I wanted to participate in #SilentSunday, but everyone knows I don’t know when to shut up.

@ScottSoCal I called an electrician even though my DIY self knew I could do it. Wasn’t too costly and if something goes wrong I have some else to blame.

I'm mounting an EV charger in the garage. I had it marked, measured, leveled, the drill in hand and ready to go through the wall. Just before I pulled the trigger I mentally went through everything one last time.

Oh, wait. Yeah. That spot, just above the plug the electrician installed? That's where the main electrical panel for the house sits. Yeah, drilling through the wall there may not be the best path for continued health. Time for Plan B.

Please tell people about this, it really helps me out!

I don't know if this is a trauma thing, or an autism thing, but as I've gotten older (and it's harder to pretend) tears are a lot closer to the surface than they used to be. Sad tears, happy tears, overwhelmed tears. They just pop up, out of nowhere, and I'm left with red eyes and a runny nose.

If Mastodon had a party in real life and you were there, which person would you be?

I am the one trying to get the board games going.

I've decided that a year-round body is easier than getting a summer body...

So today was busy, after the last week was busy. Took my 4 mile walk, took hubs over to get his old car detailed, did the Costco run, got home in time for lunch, walked over to Lowes and back, went to pick up the freshly detailed old car, stop for photos of same, list the old car for sale. Now a movie. Tomorrow I install (why the Lowes run) the charger for the new EV we bought, to replace old car.
I'm pooped.

@ScottSoCal @actuallyautistic
Me either... but I actually used a bit of the lucid dream psychology on myself one night, before drifting off I mused how I would love to have flying dreams again, and imagined what it was like... and damn if I didn't have one that night! It was awesome... hasn't happened since but I haven't really put my mind to it 🀭
