Day 2482

 I woke up a little before 8 and played games for a while.  Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that it was out to the shed.

I put together John and Patty's dog crate, put a pad in it, and a cat box.  It's ready for the cats on Thursday.  I also brought out the new RC truck (henceforth called the FCX24) to work on it.  There was good news and bad.  The $25 I spent on hop up parts was in vain.  They don't fit the truck because I misread the description when I ordered them.  They might fit the SCX24 though.  The good news was that the truck shipped with metal gears.  This means that they won't need upgrading.

I had a $15 store credit with Amain.  I decided to use it to improve the FCX24.  Unfortunately the steering link is out of stock.  It's what I need the most.  Instead I got shock oil and tires for it.  I also got some bling for the BS74. 

I went back to the trailer for lunch.  After lunch I decided to improve the screen door latching.  Right now opening the screen door from outside requires opening the sliding door and then unlatching the door on the inside.  This is a pain.  Also, Cooper got out a few nights ago when I forgot to close the sliding door.  I used a small hook and some small chain to make a latch for the outside of the door.  That way the only time that the sliding door is needed is if the screen door is lathed from the opposite side.

That was pretty much the end of work in the shed.  I went back inside and surfed.  Ellen spent the WHOLE DAY watching chick flicks.  It was mind numbing.  Eventually I started watching YouTube on the TV.  I found some really interesting stuff.  I also had a nap.

Ellen fixed orange chicken for dinner.  After dinner she ended up listening to the stuff I was watching.  It was all quite interesting and covered a wide range of topics.
