Day 2262

 I woke up at 8:30 and stayed in bed to play games.  It was colder this morning than it was yesterday.  Eventually it was get up for pet stuff and breakfast.  It was still below freezing, so everything was iced up.

I surfed for a while, but then I decided to get something done.  I started work on the lights for the monster truck (headlights and light bar).  I had to go to the garage for the drill, some LEDs, and some resistors.

I removed the old light bar, which had fake lights.  I replaced them with lights I had left over from the Ryft's "roof".  I had to drill holes in the body to run the wires.  Then I wired up two LEDs with resistors for the headlights.  I just glued them in place.  That's all I can do until the parts arrive.

Speaking of parts.  I had a whole bunch of parts that were supposed to come yesterday and today.  Now a few of them are supposed to be here the day after tomorrow, and others don't have a delivery date.  Crap.

It warmed up in mid-afternoon, all the way to 40.  The roads were clear, so we went to HEB and the post office.  HEB was predictably low on inventory.  I suspect it will be late next week before they are back in full swing.

When we got home it was more surfing.  I switched to the TV just because.  Dinner was a pizza.  It's what I wanted.
