I woke up a little after 7 and played games until after 8. Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast. After breakfast I decided to work on the winch. I took it apart and then took the servo apart. I couldn't see anything wrong, and when I put it back together it worked fine. I attached it to the chassis and attempted to wind the cable.
The servo would stop halfway through winding. I thought the battery was discharged, so I put it on the charger and surfed until it charged. When I tried with the charged battery the same thing happened even when I wasn't winding the cable. I quit working on it in disgust.
We needed orange juice and bananas, and I wanted to order a birthday cake. We went to Central market. We got the groceries, but no cake. They didn't have any on display, and they said I couldn't order one for tomorrow. I was pissed, but there wasn't anything I could.
It was lunch time, so after getting the mail we went to Waterloo Icehouse. We both ordered breakfasts. They were very good, and expensive - $35. FUCK BIDEN. Then we went to HEB and bought a cake. It may not be quite as good, but at least it was available. It may be my imagination, but it seems like the shelves are getting a little more bare.
When we got home I went out to the garage to finish the bike rack. I needed a victory today. I finished it and took the rest of the packing material to the garbage/recycle. The rack is built like a brick shithouse. It should work fine. I also took the four ratchet straps off the bike rack on the trailer. That's as far as I wanted to go. It was over 80 and too hot to work in the sun.
I spent the rest of the afternoon surfing. I have an idea for fixing the winch, but I didn't feel like working on it anymore. Ellen fixed fish burgers for dinner. After dinner I surfed while Ellen watched chick flicks.
