    Only plan today is to not fall asleep at work. People were driving like jerks this morning. I had this person in an infinity suv tailgating me downtown. the speed limit is 35 and I was probably going 37. When I put on my signal to turn left, they swerved and I thought for sure they were going to hit me. Luckily they didn't. I often wonder what's going through someone's head when they drive like that. Could they possibly be late for work at 7:10?
    I can tell you what some of them are thinking. 25 years ago, my friend's new husband drove us somewhere with very mountainous curves. He went flat out speed wise. I was afraid I was going to die. When we arrived at the destination, he said "I hope I didn't scare you too much. I drive with the expectation that everything on my car will perform at 100%." All I could think was, what if it doesn't?

    I don’t like drivers like that, whatever their reasons are.

    I always use my forward observation azzhole assumption technique but there's not much you can do when they're behind you :D

    Good morning, Charlie :wub:
    Morning Fran :wub:

    Just sitting resting after some sort of enjoyable shopping in Dartmouth UK....it's a beautiful town by the sea with an ancient history.
    We've been vaping in the porch as my parents don't like it in the house and everytime I go back in there it smells delicious.....and custardy :D

    Weather it's bad but hey it's Devon.

    Underlying medical conditions include being a former smoker so you qualify. We have to wear our masks at work (not in my office) at least until the end of the year. I still wear mine when I go out shopping and in public. People around here don’t care so I have to protect myself, and my parents, by wearing one.
    Our mask mandate is over here, but a good number of people still wear them. The opposite in rural Alabama….We stopped at walmart on the way in to mom’s Thursday late afternoon for groceries and the only person I saw in a mask was an elderly gentleman on oxygen. <le sigh>.

    I doubt I’ll mix today. The time change just sucks all the energy out of me. I need to do big bottles of cc and ice cream bases.

    I agree on the time change. Trying to get energy to do a couple mixes.

    Somewhere between here and there
    I'm actually fairly energetic here at work this morning but expect to crash this afternoon. About 15 minutes after I mowed and vacuumed up leaves yesterday, the whole yard was covered again. It was pretty windy and the tree just decided to dump the leaves. It would be much worse if we hadn't had the tree trimmed this year.

    I always try to be optimistic when that happens. "I bet his pregnant wife's water just burst". In Miami it meant about 30 kids were born every 15 minutes.

    I’d wait til the leaves are all off the tree. Of course I’ve always hated raking.
