An Extremely Social Day
Aug. 29th, 2025 11:00 pmI took A. to school.
I walked with M.
I had a delightful phone chat with K.
I had a delightful phone chat with JC.
I totally failed to notice or failed to receive for several hours (thinking it was the latter, actually, altho I failed to screenshot the out-of-order timestamps on the messages for proof) a message from JB at the builder. Apparently, the propane tank for the backup generator needs to be larger. A lot larger. Because when you draw propane out of the tank, it chills things, and if you draw very quickly out of too small of a tank, you can make stuff too cold to function. R. realized it once it was pointed out; this was all new to me, altho I suspect yet another real world application of pv = nrt.
Anyway. There was something else that came up on the call, but that required no immediate decision making. Basically, it’s still a slog to get equipment with the new refrigerant.
D. from the builder called to say the PCO would be on Tuesday or whatever, which, fine.
And two different people came to pick up things in the middle of all of that.
I then went out to dinner with T. at NYAJ, which was fun, but by the end of it I was Done. I took a nap for about an hour, and then remembered I hadn’t sent FF invites, so I did that and shortly thereafter participated in FF. Very enjoyable!
Wow that was a lot of social in one day tho.
