A day of surprises.
Today I decided to do something different. I brought a change of clothes with me to shower at the gym and be fresh for when I get to my truck. My poor truck has really taken a beating in the smell department. It smells like gym class since I am hopping in there while still actively sweating. Things were going great too. I had an exceptional workout, I was in the zone! 3 miles in under 30 minutes on the treadmill, 20 minutes on the elliptical machine and then 1 more mile on the treadmill just because I could! So from there I showered, and headed out to the truck feeling fresh. I hop in the truck turn the key and BAM! it starts ticking and making horrible electronic noises and the dashboard lights start flickering. I turn it off and pull the key but the truck is still clicking away with the lights flashing. I get out and look under the hood, and all looks OK. No chewed up wires, the battery terminals look free of corrosion, all looks good. I get back into the truck and try again, and clicks and lights flashing but that is it. So I walk home. I am wondering if my electronic key is the cause of this and I wanted to get my other key to try out. On the walk I managed to drop my sweatshirt and not realize it. Oh what a day this is turning into. So I get my other key and ride my scooter back to the truck. I find my sweatshirt along the way so yea for me. I try the other key and it is the same thing, no worky. I call the local Honda dealer to see about getting it in and they tell me bring it in but I need to get a tow company to do it. That was not the service I was looking for. I went to my local garage (where we get our vehicles regularly serviced) and they took care of everything. It was only the battery. I had never in my life seen a car act that way, it was like it was demonically possessed! Now I know to add the nugget of knowledge into my mental rolodex of near useless information.
For my afternoon workout I jogged a mile then did 30 minutes on the elliptical stepper. It was enough.
I made a cool dinner tonight. I cooked chicken breast and chick peas. I put them into a food processor and blended them into a paste. I added raw spinach leaves and blended it some more. That was spread onto a tortilla with lettuce and some Greek yogurt sauce. WOW was it good.
The site is working fine today. WordPress must have been doing upgrades or were changing settings yesterday because I could not keep a good connection to their systems. All seems to be well now.
