When the ebay listing says 32GB of RAM but the screenshot shows only 16GB of RAM...

Snapped a photo of the #barbecue sauce section at HyVee while in #kansascity because friends in PA roll their eyes when I complain about the anemic selection in our aisles.

that's pretty neat! I could jump "rope" inside where I'd otherwise have insufficient space.

great fountain pic! It made me feel a little nostalgic: yours is a much larger fountain that reminds me of one in my home town.

#running injury question: it feels like I kicked something with my big toe. I have not done that. Started last night. Is this a weird delayed onset running injury, or is this just getting old, or am I unknowingly sleep walking and kicking stuff? 😅

A brief #running update: stitches are out of my hand, and the doc said things are healing nicely. No longer required to keep it bandaged throughout the day unless I'm doing something particularly dirty or infectious. His advice from last time still applies: "you can run as long as you don't fall" 😅 (I'm avoiding the trails until it's truly healed up, just to be certain)

I was procrastinating my run. That was apparently my subconscious providing an omen. A rock came out of nowhere and tripped me good. Or I wasn't paying attention and lifting my feet on a trail. Park Ranger got me wrapped up enough to get to urgent care where I'm now waiting. #running #fail

I have a springtime favorite and a group of fall time favorites at the #cemetery I help run and where I go #running several times a week. The cherry tree marks warm weather ahead, and the ginkgo trees are some of the last to drop their leaves in brilliant yellow. The ginkgos were sent from Japan to honor George Kinzo Kaneko, a Japanese student that studied in town and fell ill, and one of those ginkgo trees is a current state co-champion.

I'm just glad only one of them noticed me!

Just got stung by a wasp under my eye. I got greedy trying to take out a nest: I should have sprayed, ran, and come back later.
