This errand trip is zero for three so far.
First errand: Get the car bra replaced on our ’09 Honda Fit. I don’t know why the car needs a bra, having no breasts, but there you go. We’re waiting for the dealership to call back. The dealership hasn’t called back.
Second errand: Get a digital picture for online application for passports. Walgreens takes passport pictures. They do not take digital passport pictures because there’s no such thing. So much for experimental government programs and red tape.
Third errand (current): Go to coffee and write. The atmosphere is fine, with its rough brick and floor tile and surplus of wood. The coffee is too acidic for me, as is every coffee I get here, which tells me their brewing parameters are off. For me to reject a coffee is strange; in consolation, I ate half a honey lavender bar. So there’s writing, but no coffee.
Fourth errand: I hope this errand goes better. There’s now an Asian food market in town. That might go well, if by well one means purchasing half the store. I cook Thai food enthusiastically, Indian vegetarian food casually, and Chinese food lackadaisically. I have a goal of picking up a package of frozen durian to make a durian custard over sticky rice, and some cans of curry paste, and some seaweed, and maybe some vegetarian chow mein, and some Thai eggplants, and … good news! They’re open today!
So I guess 1 out of 4 isn’t bad.
