There's no dog calamities, but he is a pain in the butt. Puppy play involves the scratchy teething of his little but sharp teeth, so it roughs up my arms. He craves attention while Jen and Jake are gone. They come back from Gainesville tonight, so the dog will be off my back for a while.
The car broke down on the Gainesville trip, so now I have to fight Jen's subconscious urge to replace the "now unreliable" car. It's a 2009 Honda Pilot with 30,000 miles, so we ain't getting rid of it anytime soon. The breakdown was apparently due to a faulty Jiffy Lube air filter replacement, so there's going to be some follow-up on that front.
I haven't biked all week. I ran on the treadmill yesterday afternoon and went to spin class yesterday evening, so I'm particularly sore today. I have biking planned for both mornings this weekend.
No big new purchases. Bought a cheap ($25.00) eBay Luxman K-111 cassette deck to replace the eBay Denon deck that never arrived (and is the subject of a Paypal dispute), and a cheap ($16.00) eBay Sansui SE-77 graphic equalizer to try to fix the acoustics in our all-tile living room. Damon picked up our loaner hospital bed (and we are really grateful for the loan), so that frees up some acoustic space. The room sounds good for jazz, but bad for rock.
Music of the Moment- The new Tom Petty album, "Mojo." A little too bluesy, but excellent.
