Assuming the date is correct, I wonder if the string had something to do with the fact that the next day was my birthday and she wasn't going to be working that day.

Went to the hobby store to get some faster motors for my little micro FPV quadcopter.
Had the opportunity to buy either high zoot or medium zoot motors.
I went with the medium zoot models and I'm regretting it a bit. Not quite as punchy as I'd really like it to be for maximum performance cat annoyance.
I've got to go back to the shop anyways to pick up some new props since mine are old and keep spinning off the shafts, might as well fix my error

I've got the old Inductrix FPV. There was quite a large aftermarket source of upgrades back a few years ago. I think that the modified original Inductrix became known as the "Tiny Whoop". They all use 6mm diameter brushed motors.
I was informed at the hobby store that FPV multirotors are no longer all that popular. I was surprised since man they were everywhere.
This is the one I have:

I am too, it's my state. It's the only serious Big East contender we've ever had.

Last night my friend/bartender texted me this. It’s from 2008. She was going through old photos looking for one of a long time employee who recently turned 70. It will serve as the base for a painted portrait.
Judging from my attire, I was on my bike that night. Fun times.

That said, there have been times you wind up at a party and that's all they got.
That's when I give myself a reminder to never come back there again.

My Dad used to get trees on Christmas Eve, because that was traditional but it also because his strings of lights were the 'one goes out they all go out' kind and if he put the tree up any earlier than that at least one string would be out by Christmas.
