Whew. Just got my day back

Last night all the apps on my phone started crashing. I'd click on them, they would open and then close. I reinstalled one or two and then they would work. I went to sleep thinking I'd be spending today wiping my phone and rebuilding it. Not a bad thing except I'm pretty sure the robot vacuum map is not saved past the app yet (it's still in beta) so I'd have to remap but whatever.

This morning, when I got on the treadmill, my book app was crashing again. GRRRRRRR Oh well.

But first... I googled and sure, enough, Google fucked up. An update to web services broke everything else for me and a few gazillion others. I uninstalled the update and whew. All is good.

So now I have my day back.

For the past couple of days, I've been choosing my big meal of the day based on what has been in the freezer longest or what needs to be eaten out of the fridge. Consequently, I've wasted mucho calories and that's gotta stop.

I will no longer eat stuff I am not thrilled to be eating.

It's been lovely doing groceries once a month but now I'm vaccinated and I should get out of the house anyway. So. I think I'm going to move to a Just In Time model - manufacturing of the 80's. At least try it for a while. I'm at a good spot. My supplies are low. I'm sticking to my big meal being mid-day and evenings being more snack - cheese/crackers, or small salad - stuff like that. I have plenty of good stuff for snacking. It's the mid-day main meal that needs an upgrade.

Today will, I think, be Asian day. There's a tiny little restaurant in the International District that I used to order from back when Amazon delivered from restaurants. They no longer deliver at all but they do have online order/pick up and they open at 11 so I can get lunch.

I am an hour away from finishing my latest audiobook (one of the very excellent Peter Ash series by Nick Petrie). My brother bill_schubert just sent me a text of a good one he just finished (November Road by Lou Berney) and it's all queued up and ready to go. So I can skip the hunt.

I have had food from this place often but I'd never actually been there. Good thing, because while their food is fabulous, their place is scary. I suspect it is partially because of being closed for so long and partially a defense against Asian hate crimes, but this is not a place you'd be drawn to for anything but maybe a stabbing in the doorway.



The only clue you are at 663 Bistro is the very faded 663 number over the door. Honestly, if I had not paid already, I might not have gone in.

Inside wasn't that much better but a very chipper young woman said "Order pickup?" And I said yes and gave my name and she had my order all ready to go. (I hit the order button here in the living room and then got into the car and drove to the place and it was ready when I got there. I'm cool with that.)

Then I swung by Krispy Kreme to try out their Free donut for vaccination proof deal. TOTALLY LEGIT! I pulled up to the drive through speaker and ordered 1 Vaccination Donut, please. I rolled around to the pick up window, flashed my vaccination card and I drove off with a free fucking donut! Made my day. And will make every day I get close to that place for the rest of 2021. I get a free donut every single day. I have loved Krispy Kreme since I was a little girl, but even more today.

Lunch



It was too spicy for me. Way too spicy actually but the beef was so good and the onions had the perfect crunch to them. And the pork eggrolls were outstanding. I will order something else next time but there will be a next time.
