B.S. & Political Ridicule

Yesterday and today

Yesterday:

  • Erin and I spent the day together, starting at the Jeep dealer for service and annoyance.
  • They provide the service, I annoy the sales staff. One I fire on a regular basis, hoping it will stick sometime.
  • I sit in the sales office, behind the desk. It makes the newer sales people wonder who I am. The older staff just play along and treat me with deference. I had a new saleslady get me coffee and a danish yesterday.
  • Fitz thought it was funny. He’s the used car sales manager and we were discussing his living situation and didn’t need to be disturbed.
  • Fitz retires in a year. Another Harley owner. Nice guy. Very religious and pretty funny about it.
  • Erin had the run of the place. She’s a natural boss and has the sales staff running after her whenever I bring her there. The F & I guy was on the floor playing with her for a bit.
  • She and I also did Lowe’s and Harley-Davidson. I bought Erin a toy motorcycle and she’s had it jumping everything.
  • The girls at the H-D dealership fell in love with her. Tiffany let her lead her around by the hand asking her questions. Tiffany told Nina later that day how much she loved Erin.
  • Nina bought sunglasses at H-D yesterday.
  • I think ML had a tiny stroke yesterday. We’re not taking her to the hospital, they’d just check her in and “watch” her overnight and send her home. I just simplified the process and watched her myself.
  • My Thursday meeting was canceled. There’s a battle a’brewing between the city and the Chamber of Commerce and all of us from that meeting want to be present to watch it go down.
  • Believe it or not, this is all about the marketing group I’m part of, so I’m part of the battle. The CoC lady has no idea where I stand, yet. I’m sure Thursday will make it clear to her.

Today:

  • It is Wednesday and Erin and I are scheduled for lunch at Burger King and their play land.
  • Erin and Tori should be here between 7:30 & 8:00. I’ll know that they are here when the garage door slams and shakes the house.
  • I was invited to a no limit poker game for Thursday evening. I doubt I’ll go. I prefer the betting caps that keep our games sane.
  • Since it’s still early, today’s section of this posting is a bit brief and I’ll add more to the blog if something worth posting happens.
