I purchased my first bag of sweet tea from Popeye's tonight. I haven't had sweet tea since I was a kid living at home w/ my parents. I don't think it will be my last bag of sweet tea purchased.
So 2 people I worked with recently have confirmed positive covid tests...one I worked with just this past Monday night...she tested positive on Wednesday. I spent most of the 12 hour shift no more than 4 feet from her all night. Now question if anything I feel is a Covid symptom...otherwise I feel fine. I truly think at this point I'm immune.
So...an update on that Jack White record. It seems I must have pre-ordered a black copy when I ordered Fear Of The Dawn Screen Printed jacket back in April. I had no other shipping notice on that black variant....and the last 2 tracking digits on the box was "92", same as the one I was expecting, so I guess I'm getting the fancy version today.
Finally got my Vault exclusive variant of the new Jack White - only to see they sent me the regular black variant. Color isn't a big deal, but I could have had this copy on the day it was released if I wanted it. - and I paid about 5 bucks more for it. I wrote them an email.
Found out last night/this morning that a friend from college killed himself last month. I wasn't really in touch with him other than some Facebook/Myspace likes in the last 20+ years, but it is still an odd feeling.
Woke up to the left channel of the pre-amp on the Marantz 2245 not sounding great at all. The AUX works fine, as I forgot I had Spotify playing on my old iPad all night long. Hooked up the old Pluto pre-amp for now....but I need to get a better one. And since I'm not using the AUX in - I need to get a line-in switch for my tape and cd player.
Finished my first 2 days of my new job this morning...and while greeting me on the stairs this morning, my dog broke my glasses frames. So that's something I need to get fixed tomorrow.
day #2 with this migraine....I think I may need to finally see a doctor about these considering I'm starting a new job at the hospital in 2 weeks where I stare at computer monitors all night long.
Got one of my Tool box sets in this morning. The MRP box it shipped in was trashed. The box isn't too bad, but does have a wrinkle in the front corner. Good thing I bought a 2nd one of these from Amazon. I may wait until that one arrives to see if it's better...and just play whichever one is worse.
I love movies...but haven't given a shit about the oscars in quite some time. And the way they are now treating some categories like best score seems pretty shady...but at least we can replace that time with the same bad jokes and people getting slapped.
