Inside The Perimeter

After a trip to ChaRM, one of my last due to their pending move, I stopped by WLF@UFO. While at my raised bed I harvested all of the okra prior to cutting down all five of my plants; none of this okra is edible, the pods were all too large. I also took down my four tomato plants, from which I think I harvested one, maybe two tomatoes. Still in the ground are three tiny pepper plants and some struggling sweet potato plants.

WLF@UFO started with such promise, little of which has been realized. Once again I will be unable to attend a social function, it’s happening the weekend I will be in Greenville for the wedding.

Cleaned and cooked yesterday, neither did I do very well.

Through nobody’s fault but my own, I have been overcommitted. It was a very busy weekend with seeing Sugar at The Eastern ($39 for parking was highway robbery!) on Friday, a day of bike riding and drinking on Saturday, and meeting up with friends yesterday.

My Do Not Disturb sign has been hung out for this week. I will be committing to nothing other than my weekly dinner with Betsy on Wednesday night.

Wordle: five, my starter was SLIDE. Not having solved in fewer than four but once in over three weeks, I hate this fucking game now.

If all goes to plan I will be making my first visit to The Eastern for tonight’s Sugar show. If this wasn’t a band I loved, who hasn’t toured in 34 years, I wouldn’t be going. The introvert has won, and is tired of trying to interact with others.

With the exception of the weekend Hurricane Isais passed by and canceled everything, we have been (and apparently will be) dry. Wee Little Farm is so dry that I have been running my sprinklers in order to keep things alive.

I don’t know how many more road trips I can take because I am increasingly distressed by the amount of land which is being developed into roads, housing developments, and businesses. We continue to destroy the environment, and I dread the country we are leaving for future generations.

I knew going away for five days would risk the health of the seedlings I had growing in the basement, and unfortunately I was very right. Even though I loaded them up with water, when I got home yesterday they were all looking incredibly sad and near death. Time will tell if they survive…

I intended to see a concert at The EARL tonight. However when I went to ensure tickets were still available the show had been removed from the calendar. I cannot find any explanation for the removal, and it appears that the band, Telehealth, still plans to perform in other cities.

Heading home from Raleigh. I had another fun weekend hanging with the Raleigh Royalty.

On Friday night we went to see Chatham County Line play an outdoor gig at LoneRider Brewing in Wake Forest.

With the exception of hating riding on the massively high ferris wheel, the NC State Fair was once again a fun time.

Wordle: five, my starter was CABIN. I’m starting to hate playing Wordle since I’m not good at it.

Consider my lack of content today as regaining two minutes of your life.

Have a great weekend.

Because you probably don’t have the same sort of OCD/autism/attention-to-detail as I do, I believe (based on which wrist one wears a watch), that left-handiness is on the rise. By doing a little googling I found that approximately 10% if the world population is left-handed, and surprisingly to me, more men than women. I realize that not all left-hand-dominant people who wear a watch wear it on their right wrist, and that some right-hand-dominant people wear a watch on their right wrist. It’s just I feel as if I see more than 10% of the people who are wearing a watch are wearing it on the right wrist. Maybe I should ask them for an autograph to see with which hand they sign.

YMMV
