What have you done today thread?

[ZRX61]

Ended up in the ER for a few hours this evening. Checking in & the guy ahead of me is telling the nurse that he has "back & chest pain". Nurse is asking him all sorts of questions.
Finally I say "Ya might want to look at the back of his shirt..."
Nurse: Holy shit, is that a tire mark??

I've been interviewing internal candidates for a junior role on my desk. One was born in 1999, two years after I started with my employer. I told him that putting his DOB on the CV was his first black mark in the interview process.

You’d better give him the job now ‘cos he’s potentially got an age discrimination case otherwise... and I’m not sure I’d use “black mark” in a negative way either....

Got my car's ECU back today and fitted it and its working fine again now.

French lesson this morning. Managed to pick up my package containing the HDMI thingy I ordered (so I can plug in more than one thing to the tv!!). Missed getting to the market to see my friend that sells cakes there

Then back to resort. Pretty much all the folks that I meet with up here are leaving tomorrow or Saturday. So we had a small get together. Kinda sad really - but better that they go now than get stuck here if France goes on the UKs Red list

Bloody hope that enough vaccines happen over the summer to make next season possible!!!! I'm bored now of the lack of lifts, bars and people!!

Went to do a site survey up near Wolverhampton. Turns out our office is 1.3 miles away from Muzzychuck and Sunny. As I'd done my biweekly Covid test this morning and come back negative I popped I to see them and had a brew and a chat socially distanced in the garden. Been a good few year and was good to catch up with them both. Sunny gave me four baby chilli plants she'd grown which was an added bonus and made up for driving 5 hours in the car on the motorway.

The old woodchuck seems to be enjoying lockdown.

He now looks like that scary man all the public service films warned you not to go into the woods with. And yes, he offered to take me out into the woods on his quad bike. And yea, I declined...

I bet if suncream had been mentioned the story might be different....

Yesterday I discovered a large bruise that I had no idea what caused it. Closer examination this afternoon appears to show two pairs of fang bite marks. May have caused the issue that put me in the ER last night.

Take garlic.
I've read enough books to know that the vampire apocalypse always starts in LA.

I went running yesterday, again.
Well, it's a run/walk situation because I'm unfit now, so every other day I do a four mile walk/run thing where I try to do 50/50. It's getting a bit easier and being able to jump into the pool to cool off when I get back is a massive morale booster.

I'm old though, it used to be so much easier

had some cereal and about to go and move a few old race bikes

Set the curtains twitching in the conservation area village I’ve just moved into. I expect the clerk of the parish council is muttering something about Hell’s Angels as we speak....

Left home earlier than needed this morning to wave some friends off as they left resort

Found where I had to go for a women stuff appointment - lucky I was a bit early for it as the Apple maps app is shit! At least google found it ok!

Then met a friend for a takeaway coffee and sarnie. We walked to the park so her little boy could run around and use the playground stuff there. I got sunburnt! LOL

Then a bit more wait and off I go for my first chip insertion! I'm pretty sure I can assimilate the chip rather than the other way around and on that basis the second chip should give me super powers

Stopped to see two lots of people to talk about a possible business opportunity (Serious crossed fingers)

Drove back to resort in time to see the physio - who told me off for getting sunburn over my scar

Now waiting for some veggie quiche to cook so I can eat, maybe have a snooze then watch the rugby at 9pm

Oh - also waiting to see if I can assimilate the chip or if I'll grow an alien head instead

Got yet another compressor running. This one is destined for supplementing the main compressor when I need lots of air for grit blasting. The outlet had been snapped off at the head. Being as the head is symmetrical all I had to do was remove it and turn it round.
