Unfortunately, I got very sick around 5 am and wasn&#8217;t nearly well enough to drive, safely or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I made a big mistake last night and consumed several chocolate desserts: cupcakes and an ice cream bar.  Horrible, horrible endless pain.  Nothing worked, not vinegar, Tums, ginger, ice, Pepto.  I stayed in bed belching and breaking wind and sleeping until ten of three.  Faithful, concerned Jett stayed with me for a while, didn&#8217;t even go out until 9:30.  Ron did a small grocery run before the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll leave the truck at Berkshire Transmissions on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, had a nice text conversation yesterday with Peter about music influences.

Checked in very briefly with Remedy, sounds like the app is behaving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday we finally brought the truck to Berkshire Transmissions.
