[A Friend of Charlie]

Commute days on Wednesday and Friday this week. Sandwiches were made and drop-offs too. Just getting the vehicle gassed up so that I can get back home and begin the work day.

How often would you say you have to wait at the gas station to get filled up? It almost never happens here unless it's a really busy area, but I'm wondering if there's much difference not being able to do it yourself.

It depends. For example, this morning I went straight to the pump because there was no line. I waited about 45 seconds for the attendant to walk over.

Then you sometimes have to wait after the pump has clicked off for the attendant to notice so you can go.

That's a very valid point.

Full Harvest moon tonight.

I thought the moon was full last night. I was singing Neil Young songs.

In happier news, today is both Taco Tuesday AND National Taco Day. Glad we'd already decided to have tacos for dinner.

I thought that was ironic before my son explained that National Taco Day always falls on the first Tuesday of October.

Makes sense, though, it does ruin some of the magic.

Fun fact - this was the first time Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts all lost in the same week.

Almost as good as a scorigami!

No doubt!

Flacco has been traded to the Bengals. Guess we're all-in on the rookies now. Poor guys never stood a chance.

I always figured if I achieved a net worth of a million bucks, I'd be rich.  I guess not.  My advisors say I'm halfway to where I need to be for retirement, if I don't want to become a Walmart greeter.  I'm not sure I'm going to make it in five to seven more years.
