Sunday sashimi
Watching the Raiders play the Seahawks somehow I got a hankering for sashimi, so I ordered two meals' worth plus edamame and a side of tempura shrimp. Door Dash, massive delivery snafu, the gate stopped working so I headed there to get my food, but as I was within a block, the gate opened and three cars came through. I made a u-turn and followed them, but they all turned off other streets. Got home just as the delivery guy was driving away, he had come from the wrong direction. And must have come through before the three others.
Got my food, it was good. One more meal's worth in the fridge.
So no salad. I figured the edamame made up for that.
Exhibition game, both teams were trying out new and rookie players. Raiders QB had been many years in Buffalo, and he was pretty good. Having a decent O-line helps. Kind of bittersweet how easily Las Vegas trampled Seattle, since the Seahawks are my team when they are playing anyone else.
Breakfast banana & later a muffin. fruit and half the rice pudding for lunch, the other half for dinner dessert.
Packed up the fancy & too expensive Razer keyboard and asked online for an RMA. They are overseas somewhere it will be a while. Put the Kensington keyboard (my wired backup) in place, did not want to mess with the Microsoft wireless. After much research ordered a Logitech G213 which is billed as a gaming keyboard but isn't. It is backlit, your choice of colors, but the keys are wider and not as trigger happy. It also has independent media keys.
Read the news. Good riddance to Americans in Afghanistan. Like Vietnam, rescue as many people as possible who helped our side, but if they really want an Islamic Emirate, let them. The real enemy are the Saudis. Obama should have done this within a year of his 1st election - he had promised. After Bin Laden was killed he had no excuse.
Still far too much news space wasted on covid. One reason I got out of journalism is the utter predictability of what is covered.
Not much else online, no storm chasers. My only local streamer was playing slot machines.
Took the top sheet off the bed, thinking these red itchy welts are showing up after sleeping on it, so better wash it and kill whatever insect is biting me. While I was at it I threw in some towels and T-shirts and jeans shorts. Ran it once on warm and then again on hot.
Went to the Mayo Clinic pages and discovered this is probably not insects but prickly heat. Solutions: lower to room temp - so we'll try78 instead of 81. And ordered some cooling bamboo bed sheets. I've been happy with their pillows.
Tivo had more Love Island, and a long double episode of Expedition Unknown going deep into Siberia to solve a mystery of a student camping trip where they all died scattered a mile from their tent, in their underwear. Looks like they saw something they were not supposed to see and got taken out by the nearby gulag officers.
Saw one of the strays inside my sage bush, eating the leaves. So after dark tonight I put food & water out on the porch and he was right there. Spook was very interested, watching through the screen door. Last night the golden one also checked out the porch, so it's for him too. If I see a raccoon I'll call Animal Control.
Oh we're having another thunder storm.
Plans for tomorrow:
call for a nails appointment, maybe also get a haircut.
Garbage bins to the curb
Bring in the cat food
