79° on the ground but snow in the mountains. Air is crystal clear with a cool breeze. Enjoyed a lovely walk, got lunch in a new food hall, movie, now taking the fascist-communist train home. Just another miserable day in California.

Irritating development, these two test vehicles pulled up just in front of me. Good news, they only charge to 80% so they finished quickly & left. Plus, nice guys.

@att I have a great big sign on my door saying do not knock or right the door bell and no soliciting. But one of your salesmen decided to knock on my door anyway. Any chance you fan get your people to follow basic requests?

Me: since it’s just the two of us for dinner tonight we should do something fancy & expensive. How about an omlette? Mrs: we don’t have that kind of money.

Mrs: you’re suddenly getting fast at simple arithmetic. Me: I’ve been working to calculate ages faster than the host on Hollywood Graveyard can announce it. Mrs: …. God you’re weird.

Heard on an anime the Mrs is watching: “All I want to do is break down this government by any means necessary. The ends justify the means.” Same anime, same. You just spoke for most of us.

Things I will gate-keep: are you a good person & do you support LGBQT rights? Things I will not gate-keep: if you call it Cali or California. Can we focus on what matters, please?

Hopefully they stop this one fast. A lot of the land there burned last year.

Latest fire headline: fire crews weren’t positioned in the Palisades IN ADVANCE of the fire. The non-stop deluge of attacks against LA is just silly at this point. So the fire department was supposed to amass there before a fire? Just psychically know it was going to happen? No mention of Alta Dena.

Woke up this morning smelling smoke outside. After the Baseline fire earlier this year that’s way too familiar. Is there another fire in the San Bernardino mountains? 😐

I appreciate that the Mrs correctly refers to the Chicago Bears defensive player as Mr. Simone Biles.

The Bears are going playing tonight, so of course the Mrs is screaming at the TV. Based on profanities I assume it’s not going well.

Had lunch at Centrico in Downtown Disney. This was our second time. I had the burger again. The first time was no fluke. The food is really good, that burger is amazing.

The Christmas market at the Row in DTLA is a good time, recommended.

To anyone publishing recipes, could you please scale your recipes to standard sizes? Who measures out 12 ounces of pasta? A package is 16 ounces. What am I going to do with 4 ounces of stray pasta? I’m making the recipe with a full box, if it sucks that’s on you.

Feeling a little more empty today, found out my Grandmother died yesterday. We weren’t overly close, she was my dad’s mom & my parents divorced when I was very young. But she was a huge part of my love of Disneyland and California. The world just got a little smaller.

A Shake Shack just opened in our town. My review: average fast food burger at an above average price. Not impressed. In-N-Out and 5 guys are both better.

Finally tried this sandwich at Calabama. Long story short she started selling sandwiches from her fire escape during COVID, lowered them down in a bucket. 4 years later she opened a store selling one thing, this sandwich, it hits right.

Our stray adoptee is finally settling in & trying to fit in with the other dogs. Today, tug-o-war with her brother. He’s twice her weight & solid muscle, but she’s trying so hard.

Hey @gavinnewsom I just saw the headline about CA offering an EV credit if the Fed eliminates it. While I like the idea, has there been any thought to tying rebate levels to percentage manufactured in CA? It would be great to bring that back in state.
