At the Big 5 in Port Orchard. Young dude tried to sell me a $69 pair of running shoes. Running shoes! I said “Dude. Do I look like I’m going to run anywhere? I’m 68 years old and 55 lbs overweight; if you see me running it’s already too late!”Running shoes. So I got a cheap pair of tennis shoes. Like I’m ever going to play tennis again.

Just tried “Air Frying” some “fries.” Salt wouldn’t stick to any of them afterwards.Useless.

Been raining all day. Supposed to rain the rest of the week. Well, since this afternoon is actually the “rest of the week’ I obviously mean through Next week. Geesh.
